At SIDS Hospital, our team of experienced dietitians is dedicated to providing personalized nutrition plans and guidance to support patients in achieving their health goals.

The Dietitian Department is an essential component of a hospital as it focuses on the importance of proper nutrition in overall health and the prevention and management of various ailments and conditions. Our dietitians work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals to develop comprehensive treatment plans that incorporate individualized dietary recommendations.

In our Dietitian Department, we provide guidance and support for various ailments and conditions, including:

1. Chronic Diseases: Diet plays a significant role in the management of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and obesity. Our dietitians work closely with patients to develop personalized meal plans that help control blood sugar levels, reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, and achieve a healthy weight.

2. Gastrointestinal Disorders: Nutrition is crucial in managing conditions such as celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD). Our dietitians offer specialized dietary recommendations to alleviate symptoms, improve digestion, and ensure optimal nutrient absorption.

3. Food Allergies and Intolerances: Our dietitians provide guidance and support for individuals with food allergies, intolerances, or sensitivities. They help patients identify and eliminate allergens from their diet while ensuring proper nutrient intake and offering alternatives to maintain a well-balanced eating plan.

4. Eating Disorders: Nutrition plays a critical role in the treatment of eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder. Our dietitians work alongside mental health professionals to develop tailored meal plans that promote healthy eating habits, restore weight, and improve overall nutritional status.

5. Weight Management: Our dietitians provide evidence-based strategies for weight management, including personalized meal plans, portion control guidance, and behavioural counselling. They help patients achieve and maintain a healthy weight while ensuring proper nutrition and long-term success.

The Dietitian Department also plays a vital role in the diagnosis and treatment of various conditions.
