In Canada, “dietitian” is a regulated health professional title. All dietitians are licensed, university-trained, and accountable to a regulatory body. The term “nutritionist” is not regulated in many provinces.

Our dietitians support Canadians with diabetes, digestive concerns (IBS, Crohn’s, colitis), heart health, high blood pressure, PCOS, fertility, cancer recovery, kidney disease, food allergies, eating disorders, weight loss and more.

Coverage varies by plan. Some offer a set number of visits per year, while others provide a dollar amount (e.g., $500 annually). We’ll help you maximize your benefits.

Your dietitian will review your health history, discuss your goals, and provide personalized nutrition recommendations. You’ll leave with a clear plan and follow-up options.

You can still book directly with a dietitian. Many people choose to pay out-of-pocket if their plan doesn’t include coverage. We’ll provide you with a receipt that may be eligible for tax deductions as a medical expense.
