Let’s talk about a powerful topic: personalized nutrition. In my practice as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I get this question all the time, “What do I need to eat for my body’s needs?” And every time someone asks me that, I get excited because it tells me that this person wants to learn and understand their body. Discovery and learning are such great places to start or continue your health journey. My answer to that question is different every time. Why is it different? Well that’s because each person’s body is so unique that one standard answer doesn’t work. I believe in the power of nutrition and that nutrition reaches its fullest potential when it is tailored to the individual. Since I hold so strongly to this truth, even I, a nutrition expert, have switched my nutrition routine to include my personalized Meology™ daily supplement packs. Here are the 5 reasons I decided to switch.
- Power of nutrition tailored to your specific health and body’s needs
As a nutrition expert, I especially recognize the absolute value of the 110 million possible supplement combinations and the more than 640,000 unique decision points that the Meology algorithm applies to my unique health. It takes the average person about 55.6 hours to read 1 million words, and at that rate, it would take me 6,116 hours, or 254 days, to just read all of the possible nutrition combinations. What is so amazing and exciting is that through the Meology assessment, I didn’t have to spend 254 days learning all the combinations available. Instead, in just a few minutes, the combinations and the nutrition expertise paired with those combinations were tailored to me. - Adjustable to your current season and future goals
While completing my Meology assessment, I found it refreshing to list my future goals and not just my health history. In our health culture, often the focus is on our past health and on sick care versus preventative care. Instead, the key questions I was asked really made me think and even dream about how good and well I could feel. Though I know my nutrition and body well, I need to recognize that as my body and goals change, so should my nutrition. The Meology program is built to accommodate where you are now and what your health and body needs now, not 1 year or 10 years ago. - Nutrition assessment for much less cost than a one-on-one dietitian nutritionist’s consultation
Don’t get me wrong, a dietitian nutritionist consultation is beneficial to everyone, but the cost is often a big barrier. And what I want is for you to be able to get those tailored nutrition recommendations at a reasonable cost. That’s why I love the Meology approach. The two different options, Essentials or Essentials Plus, allow each person to access personalized recommendations based on their individual nutrition, health, and body assessment. - Education and the option to make future adjustments
As I mentioned earlier, learning and discovery are key to everyone’s health journey. Taking the Meology assessment is the perfect way to learn more about your health and take a step forward in your health journey. If you are already on the right path with your health journey, awesome! Use the Meology tool to check in with yourself and see if you need to make any adjustments for the future. - Just the right amount of the good stuff, but not too much
I have shared this before, but I will say it again: Too much of the good stuff is still too much. This stands true with food as well as nutrition supplements. Too much of certain nutrients can cause a negative reaction and may build up over time. The intelligence built into the Meology program allows you to rest assured that you are getting the right nutrients and the right amounts for you. Also, the pure, safe, and proven ingredients put me at ease so that I can trust the sourcing of these powerfully good nutrients.
These are just 5 of many reasons that I decided that Meology was the right fit for me. Even if your reasons might be different, I hope that you’ve decided not to miss out on discovering, learning, and moving toward your health goals.
