where can i find a nutritionist?
Question:
Answers:
Call your local hospital. Most of them are required to have one on staff for patient meal planning.
If they do not see clients outside of the hospital they should be able to refer you to someone who can.
They will help you determine better food preperation, meal ideas, healthy eating and portion sizes.
It depends on the nutritionist as to how often they will want to see you. Maybe just 2-3 times to make sure the plan they gave you is working correctly. Or it may be more.
Good Luck!

This is a very good question. I'd like to find one too.
I think they counsel you on eating habits and food preparation so that you get healthy stuff.
Just do what Annie Jubb says online and her books. David Wolf too!( she trained him)
Beware.most college trained nutritionists have NOT been taught the truth about nutrition. Soulsearcher is right.contact people like David Wolfe, David Jubb, Gabriel Cousens, John Rose or anyone else who understands Live Food Nutrition. The food and drug industries make sure that doctors don't study food and nutritionists don't study Live Food Nutrition.
You are better off seeing a natropath or alternative/nutrition specialist of some sort, because if you enlist the help of an 'allopathic' (and the term has been used with too much connotation and slant) meaning regular nurse or nutritionist, you will be told that eating meat is ok because you need quality protein and having starch is ok, because you need complex carbohydrates.
All falacy. This advice is given with great deal of narrowmindedness.
Starch like wheat, pasta and potatoes make your intestinal tract sluggish, and you can cause a chain reaction of inflammation. Something which builds up slowly over the years and is the major cause of most diseases.
People who say you gotta have red meat, poultry and other are thinking that you are not able to get all of the amino acids from other sources. Not true. You can. And - most americans whether they eat meat/eggs or not get way much more protein than they need. Getting enough protein isn't necessarily a concern. Beans, vegetables, sauteed tempeh w/flavoring, some tofu (on salad or prepared the way you like), and some fish will give you all the protein you need.
Firstly, I would ask you where you are located. Based on that, you can do a search in Google for an alternative nutritionist. Type in (Alternative Nutritionist, Anytown) or (Alternative Nutritionist, Anystate) for wider results. Even an 'Alternative Doctor' will give you a wide checkup, and tell you what you are missing, and give you advice on your health condition. These are more pricey, but could be worth it.
I never needed a nutritionist. I think they bascially just tell you what foods you need for nutritions and tells you how it all works. If you're looking to lose weight, I'd recommend going to www.sparkpeople.com they have some experts on there to help you with your questions. I bought the biggest loser book and it helped me find out what i needed to eat and how much.
