Nutritional assessment and therapy involve evaluating an individual's dietary habits, health status, and nutritional needs to identify deficiencies or imbalances. This process helps healthcare providers develop personalized nutrition plans aimed at improving health, managing medical conditions, or supporting recovery. It includes analyzing dietary intake, physical measurements, and lab tests, and may involve counseling on food choices, supplementation, or lifestyle changes. Overall, it ensures that a person's nutrition supports optimal bodily functions and well-being, tailored to their unique health circumstances.
