DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEALTH COACH & DIETICIAN
What Is a Life Coach?
These professionals provide the drive and guidance their clients need to improve their careers, relationships, and lives. They help clients to:
· Recognize their skills and dreams
· Refocus their life's goals
· Move past challenges that stand in the way of those goals
What Is a Wellness Coach?
They help their clients find the motivation and tools to get to their physical and emotional health goals.
Those goals might include:
Ø Lose a few pounds
Ø Eat better
Ø Quit smoking
Ø Lower stress
Unlike a nutritionist or physical therapist, who makes specific diet and exercise suggestions, a wellness coach will help you make better general choices that fit your lifestyle.
What Is The Difference Between Becoming A Registered Dietician/Nutritionist And A Holistic Health Coach?
w Registered dietitians teach based on the American Dietetic Association and the USDA guidelines for what we should eat. Without going into much detail, these organizations are heavily funded by the largest producers of meat, wheat, corn and dairy in the country.. which means that recommendations are biased based on big agriculture corporations.
§ Becoming a holistic health coach through the Institute For Integrative Nutrition®, you will receive your training in one year. Not only do you learn about nutrition from a holistic approach (You’ll learn about more than 100 dietary theories!), but you also gain knowledge in approaching health from a holistic mindset and that your health doesn’t just stop at what you put on the end of your fork.
