Dietician Health Coaching

The Dietician Health Coaching program, available through Change4Life, gives you access to registered dieticians who can help you make healthier food choices. Whether you want to improve your nutrition to prevent or manage a chronic condition — such as diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol — they can work with you to make positive lifestyle changes.

With the program, you get four sessions over a four- to eight-month period with a dietician at a Loblaw or Sobeys Pharmacy location. Your dietician will:

Develop a nutrition plan based on your eating habits and health needs, blood pressure and weight.
Teach you how to read nutrition labels, plan meals and help you navigate the aisles at the grocery store so you make smart choices.
Assess your progress and provide tips to set you up for success when you’re on your own.

Get Started

Visit bookadietitian.ca or sobeyspharmacy.com/greenshield to schedule an appointment. If your area doesn’t have a Loblaw or Sobeys Pharmacy, you can still participate by phone.
