Diet & Nutrition

At Gastrocare Hospital, we recognize the pivotal role that diet and nutrition play in maintaining optimal digestive health. Our specialized Diet & Nutrition Counselling service is designed to provide tailored guidance and support to individuals seeking to manage digestive conditions, improve overall well-being, and prevent gastrointestinal issues.

Comprehensive Assessment:

Our experienced team of registered dietitians begins with a thorough assessment of each patient’s unique dietary needs, preferences, and any existing digestive concerns. This evaluation encompasses factors such as medical history, lifestyle, allergies, intolerances, and specific gastrointestinal conditions.

Personalized Nutrition Plans:

Based on the assessment, our experts craft personalized nutrition plans tailored to address individual health goals and digestive challenges. These plans are designed to optimize nutrient intake while accommodating any dietary restrictions or preferences.

Digestive Health Management:

For individuals managing conditions like gastritis, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and other gastrointestinal disorders, our nutrition counselling focuses on strategies to alleviate symptoms, reduce inflammation, and promote gut health. We provide guidance on foods to include and avoid, portion sizes, meal timing, and mindful eating practices.

Gastrointestinal Disorder-Specific Guidance:

For patients with specific digestive disorders, such as celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, or lactose intolerance, our dietitians offer specialized recommendations to manage these conditions effectively. This may involve tailored meal plans, supplementation advice, and strategies to prevent nutrient deficiencies.

Weight Management and Obesity Support:

Maintaining a healthy weight is integral to digestive health. Our dietitians offer guidance on balanced nutrition, portion control, and lifestyle modifications to support weight management goals. We emphasize sustainable, long-term approaches to promote overall well-being.

Nutrition for Pre- and Post-Operative Care:

For patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgeries or procedures, our counselling extends to pre-operative nutrition preparation and post-operative dietary guidelines. We work closely with the medical team to ensure seamless continuity of care.

Education and Empowerment:

Our Diet & Nutrition Counselling service goes beyond meal planning. We empower patients with valuable information about the impact of diet on digestive health, helping them make informed choices and establish healthy eating habits for life.

Ongoing Support and Monitoring:

We believe in continuous support on the journey to digestive wellness. Our team provides regular follow-up sessions to track progress, address any challenges, and make necessary adjustments to the nutrition plan.

At Gastrocare Hospital, our Diet & Nutrition Counselling service is an integral component of our comprehensive approach to digestive health. We are committed to enhancing the well-being of our patients through personalized, evidence-based nutrition guidance and empowering them to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
