When it comes to health, most people refer to normal doctors- BEWARE !
- It is important to know that a normal doctor can help in treating diseases and managing chronic illness but aren’t as knowledgeable about the complexities of nutrition.
- They don’t always have as much one-on-one time with patients to develop individualized bite by bite meal plans, a major component of any treatment plan.
What if I have side effects?

I just had surgery. Will that complicate things?
- The presence of tumors on the thyroid gland is the most common reason people go for thyroid surgery. Most of these tumors are benevolent, but some can be cancerous.
- Another reason for thyroid surgery is the swelling or enlargement of the thyroid gland, called goiter. Goiters can block the throat and interfere with eating, speaking, and breathing.
A dietitian will incorporate supplements that can easily treat low levels of calcium. Treatment should start as soon as possible so that there are no complications.
