Allergies, intolerances, occupational demands, and personal taste are just some of the obstacles that make it difficult to maintain a complete and regular dietary regimen on a daily basis. To begin overcoming these obstacles, it is necessary to consult a nutrition specialist.
But what is the role of a nutrition specialist? It is to provide advice and guidance based on the specific needs and preferences of each individual patient.
And how do they do this? They create a nutritional programme focused on achieving the personal goals that matter most to the patient.
Are there differences between athletes and non-athletes? Yes. A dedicated assessment is provided for those who engage in sporting activity. If the athlete competes at a competitive level, the characteristics and volume of the sporting activity performed are taken into consideration, so as to design a nutritional profile suited to the individual athlete’s needs.

Skinfold callipometry. This is a technique used to measure the thickness of subcutaneous adipose tissue (fat) in various parts of the body. The data obtained are entered into mathematical formulas to estimate total body fat and are subsequently used to assess body composition (i.e. the ratio of fat mass to lean mass) and monitor any changes over time.
Bioelectrical impedance assessment. This involves passing a low-intensity electrical current through the body using electrodes placed on the skin. The electrical resistance is influenced by the amount of adipose tissue present and provides an approximate estimate of the percentage of body fat, as well as other measurements such as lean mass and body water.
Total body densitometry (DEXA) for body composition analysis. This is a procedure that provides a comprehensive assessment of body composition, analysing bone, muscle, and fat mass through an in-depth diagnostic examination. This test is currently considered the gold standard for the study of body composition.
