Whatever the reason behind your goal, our <a href=\"https:\/\/abccliniquesante.com\/en\/services\/nutrition\/\">registered dietitian<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/abccliniquesante.com\/en\/equipe\/jasmine-brousseau-virtual\/\">Jasmine Brousseau<\/a>, can support you in developing an approach tailored to your individual needs.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Why Can Gaining Weight Sometimes Be Difficult?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Certain medical conditions can make weight gain more challenging. These include ADHD, <a href=\"https:\/\/fr.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hyperthyro%C3%AFdie\">hyperthyroidism<\/a>, certain gastrointestinal conditions, and other conditions that can affect eating habits or nutritional needs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These conditions can affect weight in different ways. They may decrease appetite, interfere with the absorption or use of nutrients, or increase energy needs. As a result, it may become more difficult to consume enough energy and nutrients to support weight gain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A diet that does not adequately meet your nutritional needs can also make it more difficult to reach your goal. This is why a comprehensive nutritional assessment is an important step in understanding your situation and determining which changes may help.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>A Personalized Approach to Supporting Weight Gain<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>During a nutritional assessment, your registered dietitian will review your current diet and compare it with your nutritional needs. This can help identify areas where your intake may be insufficient and determine strategies that are appropriate for your situation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Together, you can:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>identify foods to prioritize to increase your nutrient intake;<\/li>\n<li>find ways to enrich your diet without significantly increasing the volume of your meals;<\/li>\n<li>adapt your eating habits to better meet your nutritional needs;<\/li>\n<li>determine whether nutritional supplements may be appropriate;<\/li>\n<li>develop a supplementation plan tailored to your needs, when necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to help you increase your nutritional intake <strong>without making you feel full too quickly or uncomfortable after meals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>A Plan Tailored to Your Everyday Life<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Everyone has different nutritional needs. Our registered dietitian will consider your current diet, nutritional requirements, and the factors that may be affecting your ability to gain weight in order to develop a personalized action plan.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Rather than simply telling you to eat more, she will help you identify <strong>practical strategies tailored to your everyday life<\/strong> to increase your energy and nutrient intake.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Whether you are having difficulty maintaining your weight or want to support healthy weight gain, nutritional support can help you better understand your needs and make progress toward your goal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19881,"parent":35148,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-20328","services","type-services","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.6 (Yoast SEO v27.7) -
