This is why your patients stop coming for consultations.

Why do your patients say that nutritionists are useless? Why do they stop going for consultations? ** Below we list the most common mistakes that cause your patients to stop coming for a consultation. **

**1.-Eliminate carbohydrate consumption to zero

Eliminate or reduce carbohydrate consumption too much, which causes your patient to look forward to bread, tortillas or all kinds of desserts after a week.

**2.-Do not make a diet based on the patient’s needs

Do not create a diet based on bio-individual needs (basal metabolism, energy expenditure, weight, height, age, lifestyle, food preferences).**

**3.-Not telling you exactly what you need

Lack of accuracy in the calculation of nutrients and calories provided by the prescribed diet.**

**4.- Contradict your instructions.

Not paying attention that you gave in past sessions can make your patient stop coming to your office because they perceive you as someone who is unprofessional. Remember all the instructions you told him and if it is necessary to change them, explain why it is necessary.

**5.-Offer magical results without support

Offer short-term results, especially in the treatment of overweight and obesity without being sure that you can really achieve it.**

**6.-Offer all patients the same diet

This last point is very important, since few nutritionists do an exhaustive investigation of their patients to prescribe a correct diet. The correct thing is that you, as a nutritionist, make a personalized diet for each of your patients. **If you want more information on nutrition and health topics, or need advice to find the healthiest eating plan to help you lose weight, **click here
