Sidenote about nutritionism

Til våre skaninaviske gjester

Pass på å ikke forveksle begrepene “nutritionist” og “nutritionism” da disse er to forskjellige ting. “Nutritionism” er en tilnærming til ernæring som fokuserer på enkeltstående næringsstoffer eller isolerte komponenter i maten, i stedet for på maten som helhet.

Det finnes ingen direkte oversettelse av dette ordet til norsk. Men mulige oversettelser kan være “ernæringsvitenskapsfokus”, “ernæringsvitenskapisme” eller “ernæringsvitenskaplig ensidighet”.

Opinion disclaimer

Elovapika’s views are subjective and should not be regarded as absolute truth, as they may not necessarily align with the perspectives of others.

“nutritionist” and “nutritionism”

The difference between the terms “nutritionist” and “nutritionism” lies in their approach to studying nutrition!

Nutritionism

is a way of thinking about nutrition that simplifies it by concentrating on individual nutrients or components of food. Instead of examining the interaction between foods and their impact on the body, nutritionism encourages the belief that certain isolated nutrients or supplements are beneficial or harmful to health. It often overlooks the complex nature of whole foods and their impact on overall health.

Nutritional physiology

on the other hand is a scientific field that examines how nutrients and other substances in food influence bodily functions. This discipline focuses on studying how the body digests, absorbs, transports, and uses nutrients, as well as how dietary factors can impact growth, development, and disease. Unlike nutritionism, nutritional physiology takes a more comprehensive approach to nutrition, considering the whole diet and how various components of food interact with both each other and the body.

Critics of nutrition science argue that it oversimplifies the complex relationship between diet and health, and may lead to the marketing of processed and artificially enriched foods that are marketed as healthy but may be less beneficial than whole, unprocessed foods.

The topic of nutrition and science will always be debated regardless. Nutrition science is no exception. And that is actually good as it allows us to approach more knowledge about the subject.

When it comes to Clinical nutrition however, there are plenty of similar terms going:

Clinical nutrition science
Nutrition therapy
Medical nutrition therapy (MNT)
Dietetics

These are terms which often is used interchangeably and may overlap in meaning, but they generally refer to the study and application of nutrition science in clinical and therapeutic settings.

The field of nutrition science is vast and multifaceted. As there is an abundance of information available online, we will refrain from providing an extensive overview on our website. However , during consultations and as a Nutrition Advisor, Eloísa will address the part of the topic that is relevant, and link it to the individually tailored plan she collaborate with each customer to develop.
