APARICIO, Aránzazu; PEREA SANCHEZ, José Miguel; GONZALEZ-RODRIGUEZ, Liliana Guadalupe  and  LOZANO-ESTEVAN, María del Carmen. New patient care techniques: nutritional coaching. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2021, vol.38, n.spe2, pp.49-53.  Epub Nov 01, 2021. ISSN 1699-5198.  https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/nh.3798.

To achieve behavioral changes, as well as to prevent the appearance of non-communicable diseases, nutritional education has traditionally been used. However, the prevalence of some chronic diseases is still increasing. This has led to the development of new patient care techniques such as nutritional coaching, in which the patient plays an active role during the change process.

The available scientific evidence indicates that nutritional coaching, as well as health coaching, is an effective tool to achieve lasting changes in diet and lifestyle.

Keywords : Nutritional coaching; Nutritional counseling; Coach; Coachee; Health; Behavioral change.
