Whitsons offers a variety of value added services to all of the clients that we serve. Our skilled team of registered dietitians have developed these programs to enhance the health and wellness of your district.
The connection between wellness and health is hard to ignore-with 1/3 of children and adolescents being either overweight or obese, the number of individuals with chronic diseases has skyrocketed to historic levels. These diseases have short and long-term effects which makes it difficult for children to learn, especially when they’re frequently absent.
Some of the services we offer are:
Workshops and Presentations
We offer a variety of workshop and presentation topics to fit your needs. Some popular topics include: Sport Nutrition for Peak Performance, Food Allergies & Sensitivities, Facts Behind Fat & Sugar, and Nutrition Management for Diabetes In addition, we are happy to create customized workshops and presentations based on specific topics of interest in your district- just ask! They can be geared towards students, faculty members and/or parents.
Nutrition Regulation In-Services
As Whitsons RD’s, we focus on the connection between food, fitness and health; which is why providing education on current state and federal nutrition regulations is so important. Understanding how these regulations affect and transform the districts menu and fuel your students.
Nutrition Counseling
Sit down with one of our dietitians and receive nutrition counseling to help you with not just eating well, but also on managing any medical conditions you have. Examples include controlling blood sugars, losing or gaining weight, avoiding gluten, identifying undiagnosed food sensitivities- and so much more. We also counsel athletes to enhance their performance on and off the field. This is a great way to get sound, unbiased, individualized dietary guidance from a nutrition expert.
