Recognize and visualize a nutritional deficiency in your client.

Of course, this requires a well-documented nutrition diary (also known as a nutrition log ), which you can have your client keep digitally in advance using your own nutrition app.
Food tracking to detect nutritional deficiencies
To do this, your client uses the food tracking function in your nutrition app on their cell phone and creates their personal nutrition log. By evaluating their food diary, you can see the micronutrient deficiencies in minerals, trace elements and vitamins clearly and concisely in a list. In this specific case, for example, the client was clearly consuming too few vitamins. The lack of vitamin C in particular, at only 29% of the recommended nutrient reference value for daily intake, is significant. You can now identify this vitamin C deficiency and develop strategies together with your client to optimize their nutritional situation.
