L'ordonnance alimentaire est le moyen adapté et efficace de délivrer des conseils nutritionnels. Didactique, elle facilite l'adhésion des patients à des orientations alimentaires spécifiques. Le conseil nutritionnel est devenu un acte thérapeutique à part entière. Le public est désormais conscient qu'une alimentation inadaptée peut être la source de certains troubles ou pathologies ou en favoriser le développement. De même, une alimentation bien orientée permet de faire régresser de nombreuses affections ou de venir en appui d'un traitement médical. Fort du succès du premier ouvrage, cette nouvelle édition propose une ou plusieurs ordonnances pour 60 troubles ou pathologies destinées à être transmis par les professionnels de santé. Ces ordonnances sont suivies de conseils destinés aux patients, d'éléments de physiopathologie et d'une bibliographie. Ces ordonnances peuvent être adaptées à la situation spécifique de chacun de vos patients. Un accès en ligne à un mini-site permet de télécharger et d'imprimer : - les 60 ordonnances alimentaires et leurs déclinaisons, toutes modifiables et adaptables ; - des ressources complémentaires (conseils pour la lecture des étiquettes, produits chimiques à éviter, etc.) pour délivrer aux patients les informations les plus précises possible.
