Nutritional Assessment
Nutritional Assessments are useful to determine the nutritional status of a person since they can detect and identify potential nutritional and health issues. By performing a few body measurements such as weight, height, waist and hip circumference, it is possible to know the Body Mass Index (BMI) a parameter used for diagnosing obesity and the fat below the abdomen predicting if there is health risks related with an increased risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
People that appreciate their health should have Nutritional Assessments, specially those that have diet with reduced calories for losing weight, to know if their diet satisfies their daily and weekly nutritional needs. It is important to be able to correct deficient nutritional issues to prevent and avoid health problems; because an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Personal nutritional status can be assessed by software like as Nutrigenic Helper, that supports a complete nutritional program for evaluating macronutrients and micronutrients, quality of fatty acids and amino acids as well the phytochemical food composition and anthopometric measurements.
