What Diet Counselling Involves

The short answer, before the detail below.

Diet counselling is the supportive methodology that boosts recovery from a disease, boosts immunity, helps heal damaged cells, and even supports the replacement of dead ones with new cells. In consultation with a dietician at Stem Cell Care India, the dietician goes through the patient's medical reports and curates a customized healthcare plan for the patient's unique condition to help them return to their best health faster.

Why Nutrition Matters Around Treatment

Topic 02 of 2

How diet counselling connects to the rest of a care plan.

  • General health status can affect recovery capacity and tolerance of a treatment plan
  • Certain conditions benefit from specific dietary adjustments alongside medical care
  • Nutrition needs are reviewed alongside nutrition therapy for patients who need more targeted support
  • A sustainable, individualized plan is more useful than a generic list of do's and don'ts

Diet and nutrition play a large role in how the body works, particularly for processes such as neurological development — if appropriate nutrition isn't provided during crucial stages of development, an individual may be unable to develop fully or properly, since nutrition is closely tied to proper brain development. Elimination diets are sometimes discussed for patients with neurological conditions like developmental delay or cerebral palsy, on the premise that removing elements such as gluten or casein allows gut bacteria that produce potentially disruptive compounds to regenerate and metabolize; a 2001 UCLA study found 37 of 45 children with gastrointestinal disorders benefited from a gluten-free diet, and elimination diets have also been discussed for Parkinson's disease.

Conditions where diet counselling is commonly discussed:

  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Stroke
  • Dementia
  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Intellectual Disability
  • Head Injuries
  • Muscular Dystrophy
  • Motor Neuron Disorders
