The services of a nutritional therapist are suitable for anyone who wants to get advice on their diet and adjust their lifestyle habits in order to influence the development of their illness or health.
The outpatient nutrition clinic primarily focuses on therapeutic nutrition for adults with the following diseases:

• Malnutrition.
• Obesity.
• Diseases of the gastrointestinal (digestive) tract.
• Food allergies and intolerances (e.g. histamine intolerance, lactose intolerance, ...).
• Diabetes mellitus and other metabolic diseases.
• Kidney disease.
• Cardiovascular disease.
• Oncological diseases.

The nutritional therapist will also advise you on how to:

• Adjust your diet to improve your illness or support your treatment.
• Modify your diet and lifestyle to prevent diseases related to overweight and poor nutrition.
• We can help you with everything you are interested in sports nutrition, nutrition for children, seniors ....
• We will also train the patient's family members.

We offer a professional but most importantly human approach.

Nutritional counselling is covered by health insurance on the basis of a doctor's request. Without a doctor's referral, patients pay for the examination themselves, according to the price list.

The examination itself focuses on the analysis of the patient's nutritional status, dietary habits and individual nutritional needs, followed by the recommendation of an appropriate dietary regime or a nutritional plan.
Patients are offered follow-up visits to evaluate the effectiveness of the recommended dietary regimen, re-education of deficiencies or reserves in the set regimen.
Targeted, professionally guided education in cooperation with the patient brings results not only in the form of improvement of the patient's health condition, but also in slowing down the progression of the disease and improving the quality of life.
