In reply to finding a nutritionist, posted by philyra on January 11, 2007, at 14:23:11
Hello! I'm guessing you live in the US. When I sought a nutritionist in the UK I actually found one that was giving a free talk on nutrition and mental health and then just saw her afterward.
But I just wanted to say that I seriously doubt they'd have any problems with your 'alternative' diet - I'm under the impression that your diet is probably what nutritionists are advocating in the first place! Ie low sugar, no red meat, blah blah. I'm guessing they'll love the fact that you eat linseeds for breakfast. Well certainly all the nutrition books I've read here in the UK certainly advocate that type of eating anyway. I don't know about in the US. I'm sure they'll be sensitive to your ED issues too, if they're any good.
Good luck, let us know how it goes!
Although to be honest, if you're already eating linseeds for breakfast perhaps you just need to read up on nutrition for yourself? I was disappointed actually when I saw mine, as she didn't tell me anything that I didn't know already, or that wasn't in my nutrition books.
