Abstract:
Eating habits are deeply rooted and founded early in life. The need to change one's eating habits in order to treat a certain disease or a metabolic disorder may seem to impose a well nigh impossible task. It is therefore extremely important that the dietitian adjust the recommendations to each individual's needs, wishes and circumstances. The article translates nutritional objectives into practical advice. The desired dietary composition is essentially the same for the foods which are recommended for the treatment of diabetes, hyperlipoproteinemia and hypertension.
