Medical Nutrition Therapy
Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) is a type of treatment that is based on a patient’s nutritional needs. It is provided by a registered dietitian. Patients will visit with a CPC dietitian who will conduct an individualized nutrition assessment, make a nutrition diagnosis, and order specific interventions and monitoring to help guide you to better nutritional health.
Key to personalized nutrition counseling is helping you understand your dietary needs, so you can make healthy food choices. We understand that healthy eating habits can take time to form. We’re here to help you make the small, incremental changes that will last a lifetime – and can transform your body and health over time.
Healthy Living
Healthy living is not just about making good food choices. It’s also about getting adequate and appropriate exercise, as well as saying yes to healthy lifestyle options and no to those habits and environments that are not good for you.
Regular exercise, preventive healthcare screenings, adequate sleep, and healthy eating can all have a huge positive impact on your health and wellness. Learning to manage stress in a healthy way can also lead to huge improvements in your physical and mental health. On the other hand, tobacco use, the abuse of alcohol or drugs, sun exposure, and too much time in sedentary activities can do much harm.
At CPC, we offer workshops and other venues in which to gain the education and tools needed to adopt lifestyle changes conducive to good health, disease prevention, and disease management. The nutrition specialists as well as all the providers at CPC are dedicated to helping you remain happy and healthy in the long term.
