This case study should be carried out on an apparently healthy individual who does not require medical/nutritional intervention from a doctor/dietician e.g. does not have any of the following conditions:
• Diabetes • Eating disorders • Crohn’s disease • Coeliac disease
Your client can be selected from a number of sources, this may include: • Friends or relatives • Partners or spouses
Your client should have a measurable goal and require sufficient nutritional advice to enable you to meet the criteria outlined in the case study. You will be expected to demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge and design nutritional plans to meet the individual’s needs and wants. The case study will allow you to demonstrate you can meet your client’s individual needs and include consideration of the advantages and disadvantages of different types of dietary programmes for the individual. You will be required to set short, medium and long-term goals, taking the health and aspirations of your client into account You will also need to provide an outline of the balance of carbohydrates, fats and proteins (including the types of foods that contain them), based upon the client’s needs and wants. Finally you must give general exercise advice (to include lifestyle, sports, cardiovascular and muscular strength and endurance activities, as appropriate) to support the aim of the nutritional programme.
