What is a Holistic Nutritionist?

A Holistic Nutritionist is a trained healthcare professional with a natural, science-based approach to health where the focus is on diet and nutrition. They recognize the importance of treating the whole person, rather than just their symptoms. They evaluate a person’s health status by reviewing their health history, current symptoms and recent food intake (food journals). Based on the information collected, a Holistic Nutritionist will create a personalized a wellness plan to naturally address any nutritional imbalances at the root of one’s symptoms and/or disease. 

The main role of a Holistic Nutritionist is one of education. They take up-to-date, evidence-based nutrition information and make it accessible, tangible and easy to put into practice. A Holistic Nutritionist coaches and supports clients while they make recommended changes and provide tools (meal plans, recipes, handouts) to make the changes sustainable long-term.

Although the focus of nutrition counselling centres around food, natural supplements and lifestyles changes may also be recommended. Testing may also be recommended to identify nutritional deficiencies or excesses that may be contributing to symptoms.

FAQS

  • Although Holistic Nutritionists are not yet government-regulated in Canada, they are certified by accredited schools and backed by professional associations. These professional associations uphold high educational standards while providing strict codes of ethics to their members.

    During the certification process, Holistic Nutritionists complete courses such as: anatomy & physiology, nutritional pathology, biochemistry, chemistry, cellular biology, disease prevention, symptomatology, nutritional research, sports nutrition, allergies, endocrinology, alternative & comparative diets, eco-nutrition and nutrition throughout the lifecycle.

  • As the fields of Holistic Nutrition and Natural Nutrition continues to develop, more and more insurance companies are covering the services of Holistic Nutritionists – especially in Canada. Whether or not the services are covered depends on which insurance company you use and what is included in your policy. Be sure to look for an indication of coverage in your insurance plan under “Nutritional Counselling / Nutritionists” – which is not the same as being covered by a Registered Dietitian (a different service). If you have a “health spending account”, you are likely covered. Contact your insurance provider to to be on the safe side.

    Confirmed insurance companies that cover services:

    • Manulife

    • Industrial Alliance

    • GreenShield

    • Equitable Life

    • ClaimeSecure

    • Blue Cross Alberta

    • SunLife (health spending account)

    • Johnston/Maximum (health spending account)

  • We do not offer direct billing. You will receive a receipt upon payment with all the required information to submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.

  • I strongly believe that the key to optimal, sustained health is following a diet that suits your biology and fits your lifestyle. There is no such thing as a diet that is right for everyone. There are certain principles that I teach all of my clients, but we tailor them to fit their personal needs and preferences. Although I follow a plant-based diet, I do not require my clients do the same. Depending on the conditions being address, I may recommend a therapeutic diet such as Low FODMAPs or GAPS be followed for a specified period of time (not long term).

  • A few items that I recommend be in every healthy chef’s kitchen are: a good chef’s knife for slicing & dicing, a high-speed blender for making smoothies, soups and sauces, a 6 or 8 cup food processor, a few baking sheets, a good-quality saucepan and some mason jars (in different sizes) with lids. Painter’s tape & a sharpie are also great to have on hand for labelling food.
