‘You are what you eat.' Everyone knows this old maxim, but how many of us really pay attention to what we are eating and try to make it balanced. Indeed, with all the media hoopla about this ingredient and that food group, who can even say what a balanced diet looks like any more. For those who need someone to help them sort out the often confusing information about food and nutrition, a few sessions with a nutritionist can be very helpful. For those with high blood pressure, high cholesterol or extra weight, it can be life saving.
