What is a SNAC Nutrition Check-up?

During this one-on-one meeting with a SNAC peer educator, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss a nutrition challenge you are facing. SNAC peer educators are trained to address issues related to increasing energy, fueling for activity, and meal planning.

Before your appointment, you can complete an optional 24-hour Food Record to discuss with your peer educator.

At your one-on-one meeting you’ll discuss what a typical day of eating looks like for you. Then you’ll have an opportunity to discuss your nutrition concerns. At the end of the appointment, you’ll be able to set a goal with the new information you’ve gained to help you achieve your desired health outcomes.

SNAC appointments are not a replacement for medical care. If you are seeking nutrition help for a new diagnosis, eating disorder, or weight loss, please schedule an appointment with a dietitian at Boynton Health.

SNAC Nutrition Check-ups are offered in-person at Boynton Health and virtually via Zoom.
