Monitoring fiber and protein intake in obese clients of a nutrition counseling center
Kekrtová, Magdaléna ; Pejšová, Hana (advisor) ; Weidenthalerová, Edita (referee)
The obesity epidemic is still a very topical problem and requires a comprehensive therapy that includes nutritional counselling. In my practical experience, the topic of protein and fibre tends to be very common with obese clients and I often observe less than appropriate choices in terms of protein sources. Fibre is not given much importance and therefore its adequate intake is not optimal. Therefore, the theoretical part aimed to summarize the current knowledge about obesity, protein and fibre. However, nutrition in obesity is summarised in a comprehensive way, taking into account other nutrients, but also micronutrients or drinking, which may also be significantly related to obesity. The theoretical summary of obesity was summarized rather marginally. In terms of treatment approaches, diet therapy, physical activity or psychotherapy are more approached. The importance of the nutritional therapist is not neglected. The practical part was quite comprehensive. The aim of the study was to assess dietary habits (qualitatively and quantitatively, focusing mainly on protein and fibre), body composition before and after the nutritional intervention and thus to evaluate the effect of the therapy.

Pokorná, Veronika ; Teofil, Alena (advisor) ; Daňková, Martina (referee)
The objective of this bachelor's thesis is to obtain a complex view of nutritional counselling and to prove or disprove influence of nutritionist's care on triggering and developing anorexia nervosa. The theoretical part describes the conditions for practising nutritional counselling and differences between dietitians and nutritionists. Also, this part focuses on factors that can trigger anorexia nervosa, its types, and prevention. The research was conducted by evaluating interviews with three clients of Anabell counselling centre and three clients of a nutritionist. The results show that the trust in the nutritionists is high and the clients precisely follow their recommendations which can affect their health. Inspection of the medical history of the nutritionist's clients was executed in neither of the cases. The medical history contains the important part of psychosocial issues and it was neglected. All of the three respondents confirmed that they did not know the difference between dietitian and nutritionist. The results provide an insight into the incompetent care of the nutritionists. They show that it is essential to spread knowledge on the possibility to use services of dietitians in the nutrition field. Keywords: nutritional counselling, nutritionist, dietitian, medical profession,...

The research pointed out clients' high confidence in nutrition consultants. More than three quarters of respondents in both groups labelled weight reduction as the most distinctive service of nutritional consultants. Over ⅓ of respondents said helping patients with chronic diseases as one of the typical services...
