Olya has a passion for fitness and nutrition and hopes that her enthusiasm will encourage others to make healthier lifestyle choices. Olya’s goal is to teach others how to make healthy eating fit into their lifestyle. She also wants to make nutrition fun by showing her clients that healthy food can be delicious and that eating a healthy diet does not mean depriving yourself of the foods you love!
Why see a Registered Dietitian (RD)?
The title Registered Dietitian is a reserved title, meaning that only individuals who have met the required national standards are allowed to use this title. Individuals interested in becoming a RD in Canada are required to undergo at least 5 years of education/training and pass the Canadian Dietetic Registration Examination. In addition, RD’s are regulated by a provincial body, meaning that they must meet certain standards of practice. RD’s are required to undergo continuous learning in order to ensure they are using the most up-to-date information in their practice. Therefore, RD’s are a reliable source of evidenced-based nutrition information.
Nutrition Consultations: What to Expect
It is important to note that what may be right for one person is not necessarily right for another. In order to see results and reach your goals, it is very important to follow a diet that meets your individual needs. For instance, the diet plan created for a body builder should not be used by someone trying to lose a few pounds.
Olya collects information on each client’s lifestyle, food preferences, food allergies/intolerances, and current dietary and fitness patterns. Based on this information, Olya then works with her client to develop and prioritize their nutritional goals and design a customized nutrition plan that suits their needs. Olya also provides nutrition education to her clients when necessary in the hopes that they will use the knowledge and skills she has provided them with to make healthier choices in the future.
