What Does a NutriWhite Nutritionist Do? Complete Guide!

When it comes to taking care of our health and well-being, the role of our NutriWhite Ambassadors and nutritionists is key in guiding our overall health.

But what exactly is a NutriWhite Ambassador, and what role do they play in our nutrition and lifestyle?

In this article, you'll find out why it's important to consult a nutrition and dietetics expert when making dietary changes—to personalize and individualize—rather than relying solely on what you read online or hear from friends or relatives who’ve attended consultations.

What Is a NutriWhite Ambassador?

Our team includes nutrition professionals who have studied the human body's function and metabolism, as well as the macro and micronutrients we need to grow, develop, and live. They understand how these nutrients can influence our bodies positively—through diet therapy—and how they can promote either health or disease, depending on factors such as:

  • Weight and height
  • Health condition
  • Physical activity level
  • Allergies, sensitivities, and food intolerances

What Does a NutriWhite Ambassador Do?

A NutriWhite Ambassador is a health professional with multiple roles in clinical, sports, and lifestyle settings. Some of our Ambassadors also have expertise in:

  • Clinical: Meal plan calculation and design, including calorie and macronutrient requirements, portion distribution, and menu planning.
  • Institutional: Menu planning for specific population groups.
  • Sports: Nutritional needs assessment and menu design for athletes based on activity level, weight, height, and condition.
  • Special populations: Balanced menu design for children, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or elderly individuals, based on physical activity, weight, height, and health status.
  • Food technology and industry: Calculation of macro and micronutrients in food manufacturing.

Other Responsibilities of a NutriWhite Ambassador

  • Nutrition education on eating habits and healthy lifestyles
  • Ongoing follow-up and plan adjustments to optimize progress
  • Support and motivation to reach wellness goals

What Is a First Consultation Like with a NutriWhite Ambassador?

A first consultation usually includes a thorough evaluation of your eating habits, lifestyle, and health goals. NutriWhite Ambassadors may ask questions about your regular food and drink intake, physical activity level, medical conditions or medications, and your health or weight-related objectives.

During your first consultation at NutriWhite:

  • Your medical and nutritional history is reviewed
  • We learn about your lifestyle, current condition, and preferences
  • Weight, height, and other body measurements are taken or verified
  • We create your meal plan together and may recommend supplements and specific tests
  • Additional lifestyle advice is provided

What Questions Does a NutriWhite Ambassador Ask?

Depending on your goals, we’re interested in:

  • Anthropometric evaluation: your weight and height
  • Any existing health conditions
  • Your favorite and most frequently consumed foods, and any foods you dislike
  • How you feel after eating certain foods (very important for us at NutriWhite!)
  • How often you urinate and have bowel movements
  • Your lifestyle: whether you enjoy cooking, how varied your meals are
  • Your level and frequency of physical activity

What Tests Might a NutriWhite Ambassador Recommend?

A NutriWhite Ambassador might recommend tests like:

  • Complete blood count
  • Blood chemistry
  • Stool profile

At NutriWhite, we may also recommend special tests such as:

  • Food sensitivities
  • Food allergies
  • Gluten sensitivity
  • Micronutrient levels
  • Specialized gut microbiota analysis
  • Hormones
  • Neurotransmitters
  • Environmental toxins
  • Epigenetics
  • Organic acids in urine

When Should You Book a NutriWhite Consultation?
Rather than relying on others' experiences, online research, or social media, we recommend scheduling a personalized consultation—especially if you get sick often or have normalized symptoms you don’t understand and haven’t been able to eliminate, such as:

  • Frequent or food-triggered gastrointestinal symptoms: diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, gastritis, gas
  • Skin issues: rashes, acne, discoloration
  • Respiratory symptoms: cough, rhinitis, sinusitis, pharyngitis
  • Non-communicable inflammatory diseases: diabetes, hypertension, heart disease
  • Autoimmune gastrointestinal disorders: celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease
  • Neurological or mood conditions: migraines, depression, anxiety, eating disorders
  • Specialized diet needs: vegan, gluten-free, or medically necessary diets
  • Nutritional deficiencies: hair loss, brittle nails, dry skin, fatigue
  • Weight changes: gain or loss

How Much Does a Nutrition Consultation Cost in the U.S.?

A nutrition consultation in the U.S. may cost between $125 and $200 depending on location, experience, specialization, consultation duration, and whether it's an initial or follow-up appointment.
Some nutritionists offer monthly packages ranging from $190 to $540, depending on service frequency.

What Are the Specialties of a Nutritionist?

Nutrition is a broad field, and nutritionists can specialize in areas to provide more complete, personalized support. Common specialties include:

Clinical Nutrition

For patients with specific illnesses, including hospitalized patients requiring enteral or parenteral nutrition support

Sports Nutrition

For athletes, based on age, condition, and activity level, including supplement recommendations

Why Is It Important to Have a NutriWhite Ambassador?

Because NutriWhite Ambassadors are qualified to design tailored meal plans and provide lifestyle, habit, and supplement guidance based on a person’s health, metabolic, and—in NutriWhite’s case—immune condition.

In your NutriWhite consultation, we help you:

  • Review your health history
  • Identify the root of your symptoms or illnesses
  • Assess allergies, intolerances, sensitivities, gut microbiota, micronutrient levels, hormones, and neurotransmitters through specialized tests
  • Replenish nutrient levels and support digestion with carefully selected supplements
  • Design a personalized menu according to your condition, lifestyle, and preferences
  • Offer follow-up and community support through ongoing consultations and online sessions

FAQs

Besides weight management, how else can a nutritionist help?

A nutritionist-dietitian can guide dietary changes to regulate metabolism, hormones, lipids, uric acid, and inflammation. A NutriWhite Ambassador can also help manage or prevent autoimmune diseases.

What are the most common nutrition-related diseases?

Beyond macro- or micronutrient deficiencies, Immunonutrition recognizes that a leaky gut is the gateway to many metabolic and immune diseases, which are increasingly common due to today's inflammatory diet and lifestyle.

What types of illnesses does a nutritionist treat?

Nutritionists can help with:

  • Overweight and obesity
  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure
  • Dyslipidemia
  • Metabolic syndrome

At NutriWhite, we also support patients with:

  • Food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities
  • Gluten-free diets for celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity
  • Gastrointestinal conditions: IBS, gastritis, Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis
  • Autoimmune diseases: lupus, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, hypothyroidism
  • Skin conditions: allergies, dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, purpura
  • Neurological/mood conditions: migraines, depression, anxiety, autism
  • Immune system support diets

What’s the difference between a nutritionist and a “nutriólogo”?

Depending on the country, a "nutriólogo" is typically a physician who has specialized in nutrition. A "nutritionist" usually holds a full degree in nutrition and dietetics and has expertise in human physiology and pathophysiology.

Should I see a nutritionist or an endocrinologist?

Both deal with metabolism and hormones. An endocrinologist can prescribe medications for hormone regulation. A nutritionist suggests diet changes to support hormonal balance and medical treatment.

How often should I see a nutritionist?

We recommend at least one initial consultation, followed by monthly check-ins for adjustments. This may vary based on individual progress and preference.

Can a nutritionist prescribe pills?

Nutritionists cannot prescribe pharmaceutical drugs but can recommend specific nutritional supplements based on human nutrition and dietetics to support overall health and prevent disease.

We invite you to personalize your health journey through an online consultation with our team so you can begin experiencing the benefits of the 3R Immunonutrition Protocol as a lifestyle.
