What are the possible disadvantages and risks of participation?
There are limited risks and disadvantages of participation in nutritional evaluation. You may not agree with dietary recommendations provided to you or meal suggestions but it is your responsibility to share as much information as possible with the consultant in relation to food preferences etc. in the initial client meeting to reduce the chances of this occurring. When adapting food or drink intake from your current diet, there is always the risk of minor gastrointestinal disturbance, feelings of nausea or diarrhoea but these should be short-term effects and you should consult your GP if symptoms prevail beyond 3-4 days. You should be aware that any adverse events experienced as a result of following the dietary recommendations are not the responsibility of the consultant or support team.
What if I have any concerns or queries?
