Do I need to change what I eat?

If you answer yes to any of the following questions, you may need to talk about improving your nutrition with your doctor:

•    Has your doctor talked with you about a medical problem or a risk factor, such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol?

•    Did your doctor tell you that this condition could be improved by better nutrition?

•    Does diabetes, cancer, heart disease or osteoporosis run in your family?

•    Are you overweight?

•    Do you have questions about what kinds of foods you should eat or whether you should take vitamins?

•    Do you think that you would benefit from seeing a registered dietitian, a member of the health care team who specializes in nutrition counseling?
