Do you ever feel lost in the aisles of a grocery store and wish someone were around to help you read labels?
Struggle to make meals that the whole family will enjoy without spending all evening cooking?
Wish you knew how to eat in a way that would help prevent or manage your health condition?
March is Nutrition Month and Whitney, the Registered Dietitian at Hakam’s Your Independent Grocer, is excited to help you reach your nutrition goals and unlock the potential of food!
Registered Dietitians are health care professionals passionate about sharing their evidenced-based nutrition knowledge with the public. They go beyond diet fads and rely on science to give hands-on dietary advice. With so much nutrition information circulating on different platforms, it can be difficult to know what to believe. Let us help you separate fact from fiction and incorporate research-based recommendations into their day-to-day routines.
When you book a consultation, your local in-store dietitian will help you to develop and personalize your nutritional goals, based on your medical history and lifestyle. Based on your goals, they will guide you toward realistic and life-long habits that allow you to feel your best.
As real people with busy schedules, they understand that eating well can feel like a daunting task. Whether at a sit-down consultation or on a personalized shopping tour, your in-store dietitian wants to help you see food as a part of your life that is inspiring and joy-filled, not burdensome. Nutrition Month is a perfect opportunity to get help choosing snacks that keep you well-fueled throughout the day, plan balanced meals that you look forward to and find ways to include your whole family in the kitchen.
Food has the power to heal us, bring us together, keep us energized and let us explore. Join us in celebrating Dietitians Day on March 20th by getting to know the Registered Dietitian at your local Independent Grocer. Schedule your first appointment by visiting www.loblaws.ca/dietitians.
