- 1. YOU HAVE ALREADY STARTED!!
The first step is to recognize the problem and look for a solution. By
coming to this site, you have shown that you have an interest in doing
something about a nutritional challenge that faces you. That challenge
may be controlling your blood glucose levels, reducing high blood
pressure, losing unhealthy excessive body fat, or a host of other
medically based nutrition challenges.
- 2. BOOK MARK NUTRICOACH.NET
You need to come back to this website often to use the tools we offer.
Once you are using the tools we provide there is the issue of support
and encouragement. You will find that support and encouragement in our forum on Diabetic-Diet-Secrets.com .
Facing a nutritional challenge can be a very scary proposition. It
helps to know you are not alone!
- 3. BECOME EDUCATED ABOUT THE PROBLEM Knowledge
is the most powerful tool in our tool box. Defining and understanding
the problem makes the solution more clear when it is presented. Get and
read the book “The Insulin-resistance Diet”.
This book helps to really understand the problem. I consider it MUST
READING!!! When you purchase this and other books from this website,
Amazon.com will send a portion of the purchase price back to NutriCoach
to help further the work we are doing. Another new book with detailed instructions on how to optimize your diet can be found in the book Toma's Diabetic Diet, A layman's Guide to Controlling Blood Glucose with diet
- 4. Visit the Forum often and post your questions and your sucesses.
It is vitally important to have a thorough understanding of nutrition
information when you get to later steps in the NutriCoach
system.
- 5. START READING FOOD LABELS
When you shop or prepare food, read the labels. Compare one product to
a similar product. You will be amazed at the differences. For example:
I like Mexican food. I am on low sodium because I have high blood
pressure. When comparing labels I noticed that Hatch green chiles had
one half to one third the sodium of its competitors. Be aware that food labels are just a start. Also be aware that food manufactureers have found ways to hide and present misleading information in the food labels.
- 6. USE THE TOOLS ON THIS WEBSITE There are several tools on this site to help you accurately determine your BMI,
your healthy body weight, the proper nutrition for your present weight
and what you need to do to set and accomplish your goals. Once you have
this data, go over it with your Registered Dietician or Doctor to
verify that it is right for you. They may wish to adjust one or more of
the criteria to accommodate your medical condition and to keep you
healthy.
- 7. PURCHASE AND USE THE NutriCoach RECOMMENDED SOFTWARE. The
soft ware we recommend is the very best we have been able to find. This software will track 86+ nutrients and has 34,000+ foods in the
database. See the software tab to see what all it can do for you.
- 8. ONCE YOU REALIZE JUST HOW POWERFUL THE NutriCoach system is, TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS!
