III — THERAPEUTIC DIETS
Therapeutic diet support includes services for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), menopause management, as well as therapeutic ketogenic (keto) diets for mental or physical health. I also offer a Customized Nutrition Package for those needing very specialized services that are not already available in existing packages.
I currently offer the following therapeutic packages.
-
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
- Menopause Management Package
- Therapeutic Ketogenic (Keto) Diets
- Customized Nutrition Package
i. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package
The Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package is designed for women who want to lower insulin resistance and reduce symptoms associated with the disorder, as well as for weight loss. The services are similar to those offered under the Comprehensive Dietary Package, but for the specific needs of those with PCOS.
To get started, please click the “book an appointment” button.
ii. Menopause Management Package
The Menopause Management Package is one of the therapeutic support services specifically designed for ‘women of a certain age’ who are struggling with the symptoms of peri-menopause, or menopause. This package addresses weight gain, fat accumulation around the mid-section, muscle loss, insulin resistance and/or prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, as well as other symptoms. The services in this package are similar to those offered under the Comprehensive Dietary Package, but for the specific needs of peri- and menopausal women.

iii. Therapeutic Ketogenic Diets
Ketogenic (Keto) diets are one of the other therapeutic support services that I provide. Nutritional ketosis can be helpful as an adjunct treatment in some mental health disorders, as well as specific physical conditions such as seizure disorder, and for certain types of cancer, such as glioblastoma and gliosarcoma, and some other cancers.
This article that I wrote almost a year ago is about the use of this diet in some mental health conditions and this article is about clinical use of a ketogenic diet in epilepsy, seizure disorder and as an adjunct treatment for specific types of cancer. As you can learn in these articles, services for a 3:1 therapeutic ketogenic diet differ from those for a 2:1 therapeutic ketogenic diet. We can certainly meet for an Hourly Consultation to discuss which one may be best suited for your needs and what is involved in adopting each.
If you are considering adopting a therapeutic ketogenic diet as adjunct treatment for seizure disorder, or as adjunct treatment for mental health, please discuss this with your doctor, first. If your doctor is willing to oversee your health and medications while you adopt the diet over a three month period, I will provide you with a Request for Medical Supervision Form for them to complete.
iv. Customized Nutrition Package
The Customized Nutrition Package is for services not already outlined on this webpage or on Intake and Service Option Form (available under the Book an Appointment tab) and is used for quoting and approving the cost of customized services.
