Nutrition specialist



Did you know that our health directly depends on what we eat? Skin tone and elasticity, hair condition, vitality and cognitive abilities – all of this depends on what we put on our plates!

A nutritionist is a healthcare professional with relevant higher education who contributes to the treatment, rehabilitation, and recovery of patients. Nutritionists assess patients' health, allergies, eating habits, daily physical activity, and desired outcomes. Based on this information, nutritional recommendations are provided, and an individualised menu is prepared.

Symptoms that indicate it is time to see a nutritionist:

  • Weight is not within the normal range;
  • Unsatisfactory skin condition;
  • Hair loss;
  • Increased nail brittleness;
  • Lack of energy for daily work;
  • Decreased libido;
  • Decreased ability to concentrate or memory impairment.


During diet therapy, a person gradually learns new eating habits and, together with a specialist, creates an optimal nutrition plan. For each patient, this process is individualised, taking into account body mass index, body composition, age, gender, level of daily physical activity, medical conditions, and allergies.

A nutritionist at the FORTEMED medical centre advises patients in the following cases:

  • Overweight (obesity);
  • Underweight;
  • Food allergies/intolerances;
  • Coeliac disease;
  • Dietary restrictions before and after surgery;
  • Sugar addiction;
  • Diabetes;
  • Eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, compulsive overeating);
  • Eating disorders associated with neurological diseases (swallowing disorders, BGT);
  • Metabolic disorders;
  • Digestive tract disorders.
