"Nutrition plan helped my extreme endurance charity challenge."

Policy holder, George Bentham shares his recent experience:

“I could not recommend this service enough for anyone trying to understand how to take control of their diet for either weight gain, maintenance, or loss. The team are fantastic. Teladoc Health’s nutrition team supported me throughout my challenge of being able to complete an extreme endurance charity event for a good cause.”

“In early 2022, I agreed to take on an extreme endurance canoeing event throughout the length of the country for charity. One of the challenges I had to deal with was getting into a physical condition where I could take on the additional training and remain healthy. When my training was levelling up, I started to lose a considerable amount of muscle and fat.

I was aware that I could eat high-calorie things, such as burgers from well-known chains, but was also aware that they carry low nutritional value. Unfortunately, I did not know how I could eat better and maintain a healthier high-protein diet, which typically comes with low-fat content.

I booked a consultation with Teladoc Health in the hope that they will be able to look at my day-to-day diet and give me some tips on how to introduce healthy fats and other foods, including a variety of recipes. Within my one-to-one session, I received a clear diet plan and tips to help with the preparation for my sporting event and with maintaining my nutrition during the challenge. Previously the quantity and quality of food I was consuming were not right, but the better food choices finally provided me with high-calorie and healthy meals to enjoy.

Since finishing the event, I had another challenge on how to reduce my calorie intake in a healthy manner. I reached out to Teladoc Health once again and have now been given a sliding scale that will allow me to retain my physical shape but reduce both exercise and food consumption.

I could not recommend this service enough for anyone trying to understand how to take control of their diet for either weight gain, maintenance, or loss. The team is fantastic.”
