Dietary Advice Direct (DAD)

The DAD scheme allows people to monitor their diet and eating habits online by checking portion sizes, recording progress and even have a web chat with a dietitian.  It's an ideal solution for people who cant see a dietitian face to face but do have access to the internet.  You can complete the information in your own time and still receive expert advice.

If you are interested in finding out more, speak to your doctor, practice nurse or the healthy weight team.  You can also ask at your pharmacy or contact the health trainers.

This approach is not recommended for those who have Type 1 diabetes or other diet related conditions such as coeliac disease.
