Proper Nutrition is Essential for Health

  • Health is a state where all organs and systems are operating normally in a balance with each other. Proper nutrition is essential to maintain health, or to restore health during illness. Nutritional needs can vary greatly from person to person, and change dramatically with age, stress or chronic disease.
  • The common symptom in every disease is the loss of health, and any disease can be made worse if nutrition is inadequate. This is particularly true in chronic disease where nutritional deficiencies are common.
  • Prescription medications usually don't address nutrition concerns and may actually increase the risk of malnutrition by causing side effects like nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, taste alterations or malabsorption of nutrients. Drug side effects are often treated with more drugs.
  • Patient care should always include a nutrition assessment to rule out the possibility of any symptoms being related to nutritional insufficiencies.

Assessments and Consultations

  • Nutrition Assessments identify strengths and weaknesses in diet and digestion, potential drug-nutrient interactions, and give recommendations on how to promote optimum nutritional health. Information on meal planning, dietary revisions and any needed dietary supplements is included.
  • Nutrition Consultations help clarify the recommendations in the nutrition assessment and answer any additional questions the client may have.

For more information, see Assessment-Consultation Facts.


May Be Covered By Health Insurance

  • John Cartmell is an in-network provider for Regence, Premera Blue Cross and First Choice Health plans. Other health plans may also provide benefits for nutritional services.
     
  • Check with your insurance provider to see if your plan will cover nutrition consultations or assessments for medically related conditions that may be associated with chronic nutritional imbalance or insufficiency.
