It should be your first defense against disease and your No. 1 tool for staying healthy. Yet most indi- viduals feel confused by all the nutrition information available—and most of us don't get adequate advice from our general practitioner. Meeting with a certified nutritionist can help you decipher dietary best-practices. WAC Nutritionist Shana Hopkins received her master's degree in nutrition from Bastyr University and has more than 13 years' experience working with WAC members. She'll take your cur- rent diet and lifestyle into account and offer ideas on what you should change to stay in top shape or manage a health issue. You'll leave with a clear idea of what dietary adjustments to make and how to make them. She also can offer insights about menu plans and grocery lists. Nutritional supplementation may be imple- mented as needed. Shana's focus areas include, but are not limited to, weight loss, diabetes and other blood-sugar issues, cholesterol management and pregnancy.
