Nutritionology is the science of the future, so with its help, with timely correction, many diseases can be prevented and avoided:
Cardiovascular diseases (with deficiency of magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron, cobalt, selenium, B2, B6, B9, B12, K, vitamin D and E).
Diabetes mellitus (with deficiency of vitamin D, A, zinc, magnesium, calcium, chromium).
Gout (with a deficiency of vitamin C, D, iron, B12).
Obesity (with vitamin D deficiency).
Osteoporosis (with a deficiency of calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, phosphorus, silicon, vitamin D, K, C).
Allergies (with deficiency of iron, lithium, vitamin B1, C).
Depression (with deficiency of calcium, copper, iron, lithium, magnesium, potassium, vitamin B1, B2, B6, biotin (B7), B9, B12, C).
Chronic fatigue (with deficiency of iron, magnesium potassium, zinc, vitamin B5, B6, B9, B12, C, E).
Tumors (with selenium deficiency).
In recent years, thanks to nutritionology, information has become available to specialists about the decrease in the nutritional value of products related to production technologies and soil depletion, which, in turn, today affects the quality of food we consume daily and our health.
For example, the mineral content in cabbage decreased from 1914 to 1992, namely:
calcium - 5 times,
magnesium - 4 times,
iron - more than 2 times.
The vitamin C content in vegetables and fruits, including citrus fruits, grown using agricultural technology, is 10-20 times lower than that of wild plants.
What tools do nutritionists use in their work?
Nutrients.
These include macronutrients - proteins, fats, carbohydrates, as well as micronutrients - vitamins, minerals, etc. The full functioning and renewal of organs depend on these substances. And macronutrients give a person the energy to live.
Nutraceuticals.
They serve to increase immunity, reduce the risk of the appearance and development of diseases. This group includes vitamins B, A and D.
Parapharmaceuticals.
These are so-called herbal antibiotics and antiseptics, enzymes, detoxifiers, immunomodulators and other substances that are similar in their action to medicines.
Biotics.
This group includes some macronutrients, such as iron, and vitamins. These substances increase the body's resistance to viruses, etc.
Eubiotics.
These are probiotics, prebiotics and other food-borne bacteria that live in the intestine. With their help, you can cope with dysbiosis.
It will be difficult to figure out all the rules of eating proper and healthy food on your own.

Just think about it, for your well-being, your cell needs daily:
28 amino acids;
15 minerals;
12 essential vitamins;
7 main groups of enzymes;
2 types of fatty acids.
And this is the set that your cells need every day! Yes, some people try to take some vitamins and useful substances prescribed by themselves, but, unfortunately, they do not take into account many parameters, including the interaction and compatibility of substances, dosages and digestibility.
With an initially unbalanced diet, an uncorrected sleep and rest regime, the presence of some taste preferences or a specific type of diet (for example, vegetarianism), a priori a deficiency of nutrients, vitamins and minerals is formed.
The consultation of a nutritionist is necessary for the organization of a balanced and maximally healthy diet, which will not only prevent the development of various diseases, but also restore the patient's vigor and activity.
At the Smart Health Clinic, we offer qualified nutritionist services both as part of our treatment programs and as part of an individual consultation.
Individual nutrition is prescribed to the patient already during treatment according to the recommendations. Meals are prepared by a nutritionist chef and delivered to the patient several times a week. After completing the treatment program, the nutritionist continues to communicate with the patient, drawing up his individual home nutrition plan and correcting it.
The recommendations of the nutritionist are created after a thorough diagnosis and anamnesis collection together with the chief physician of the clinic. Only after receiving all the information, specialists prescribe a balanced, personalized and maximally healthy diet specifically for you.
What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
Nutritionology is more multifaceted, as it offers a comprehensive improvement in the quality of life through the study of metabolism, matabolism of macro- and micronutrients and other processes. The work is not only with a specific problem, as in dietetics, but with the whole body as a whole. We can say that dietetics is a part of nutritionology.
For the most part, dietetics is aimed at treatment with the help of a developed diet, nutritionology is selected individually and helps to prevent the occurrence of symptoms or exacerbations of pathologies.
The role of nutrition in human life is often underestimated. But at the same time, there is a direct relationship between how a person feels and the foods they eat daily. You health can improve significantly if you follow the instructions of a specialist and make adjustments to your eating habits.
Be healthy and do not forget the words of Hippocrates: "You are what you eat".
