How does nutritional management work?

Nutritional management involves planning and tracking all of your meals and snacks to optimize your health and wellness. As a critical part of your health, nutrition accounts for the vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates you consume for energy and sustenance. 

ENLYV ME uses nutrition management as a cornerstone for every personalized medical weight loss program. They make individualized recommendations based on your dietary preferences and nutritional needs after an initial 60-minute evaluation. 

Your body’s nutritional requirements are unique to you and can evolve over time. ENLYV ME uses monthly analyses to monitor your progress and can support you as you try different diet plans to discover one that supports your health. 

What are some of my dietary options for nutritional management?

ENLYV ME gives you nutritional recommendations according to your dietary needs and preferences. Options include:

Low carb

A low-carb eating plan restricts your intake of carbohydrates like bread and pasta while increasing your intake of protein, healthy fats, and veggies to keep you full. Eventually, your body begins to use fat as its main energy source instead of carbs. 

Vegan

A vegan diet is entirely plant-based, which means you don’t eat any meat or animal byproducts like eggs, dairy, or gelatin. Instead, your diet consists of fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, and dairy alternatives. 

Paleo

A Paleolithic (Paleo) diet centers on foods that early humans commonly ate. It eliminates processed foods, legumes, dairy, and grains in favor of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, nuts, and seeds. 

Mediterranean

As the name suggests, the Mediterranean diet focuses on foods and cooking methods common in countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea (e.g., Italy, Greece). This diet uses a foundation of plant-based foods to prevent heart disease and stroke. 

How can meal replacements improve my nutritional management?

Meal replacements are typically full of protein and make it easier for you to manage and track your nutrition. These pre-made food options help you reduce your calorie intake while simplifying your diet. With many options available, you won’t get bored or sick of your meal replacements.
