Medical Nutrition Therapy

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is a therapeutic approach to treating medical conditions and managing chronic diseases through personalized nutrition interventions. It involves a comprehensive assessment of your medical history, lifestyle factors, and nutritional status to develop an individualized nutrition plan that addresses your unique needs and health goals.

    MNT is important because it can help prevent and manage chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and gastrointestinal disorders. It can also improve nutritional status, reduce complications associated with medical conditions, and improve the overall quality of life.

    MNT involves collaboration between healthcare professionals, including nutritionists/dietitians, physicians, and other healthcare providers, to ensure that you receive comprehensive care that addresses all aspects of your health. It can involve a variety of nutrition interventions, including dietary modifications, education on healthy eating habits, lifestyle changes, and the use of vitamins, minerals, and supplements.

    Overall, MNT is an essential component of disease management and prevention. By providing you with personalized nutrition interventions that are evidence-based and effective, MNT can improve health outcomes and quality of life, reduce healthcare costs, and promote optimal health and well-being.

    You can also check with your health insurance provider to see if they cover the cost of nutritional planning and what their reimbursement policy is. Some health insurance plans may cover the cost of preventive services like nutrition plans, especially if you have a medical condition that may benefit from dietary modifications. Newgen Nutrition does not accept insurance for assessment, nutrition plans, consultations, or coaching at this time, however, your insurance company may offer a reimbursement directly to you.
