YOU'LL SAFELY AND CONFIDENTLY CREATE
Healthful eating plans with your client

Health-filled eating plans for your site
  • Based on proven guidelines in healthy eating you can provide meal plans to nourish clients body and mind.
Prescribe dietary plans
Unless you hold a relevant qualification you should avoid prescribing a diet plan. In prescribing a diet you may be liable for its outcomes. We recommend you consider this in any course you enrol into as some providers take a 'buyer beware' approach.

For example, you'd like to get your client onto a calorie restriction diet to lose weight = out of scope of a meal planner.
