Description
A well-balanced diet plays an important role in maintaining our health. Healthy diets not only allow our bodies to function, they can also help us reach and maintain a healthy bodyweight, reduce our risk of developing chronic disease and improve our mood and mental wellbeing.
Beach Balance’s nutrition counseling program is a collaboration with the Long Beach State University (LBSU) Family and Consumer Science Department. They provide dietetic students the opportunity to share their nutrition knowledge with members one-on-one. Sessions are FREE of charge, range from 30-60 minutes and are aimed at helping students discover ways to improve their diet.
Our peer nutrition counselors can provide information on:
- Basic nutrition concepts, such as macronutrients and how to read food labels.
- Dieting for weight loss or weight gain.
- Eating for improved sports performance.
- Dietary suggestions for medical conditions such as cholesterol or high blood pressure.
