NUTRITIONAL INFLUENCERS

The social networks with the most active users bring together a large number of influencers nutritional.

Like it or not, currently communication in the field of health is dominated by them, and this trend is increasing.

The influencers Nutritionists are people with a large following on social media who use their platforms to share information about nutrition and healthy eating habits.

Some of them may be health professionals, such as dietitians, nutritionists, or doctors, while others may not have any training or credentials in nutrition.

They often accumulate thousands and thousands of followers, and the food industry takes advantage of their popularity and influence to promote their products.

The influence of influencers Nutritional messages in people's dietary decision-making has increased in recent years, and some studies suggest that their messages may have a significant impact on people's eating habits.

It is very important to take into account that, in some cases, behind many of its recommendations, powerful advertising campaigns are hidden.

And we already know what happens when there is money involved, it is common for unhealthy or unhealthy products to be promoted, often disguised as good options, thus inducing deception.

Because we are all consumers on social networks, but we are not always capable of distinguishing the type of message or its origin.

 

Communication in the field of nutrition is dominated by the so-called nutritional “influencers”.

 

There are different ways to capture attention, a simple example is the following:

I see a gorgeous girl with a body 10 in a beautiful kitchen saying that every day she drinks a detox smoothie and it looks great on her.

I think… oops! How well that product is doing, look at what a great guy and how well he is doing in life, I want to identify with her image, with her world, and I decide to buy those shakes, I want to look a little more like her.

As simple as that, it is very easy to get carried away by appearances, which is why it is essential to be clear that this is not real life.

The reality is that most people do not live like this and it is very likely that this person is in a home that is not theirs, that it is just a promotion, but they make you believe that they are following their daily routine.

 

 

Are crated Slogans to capture the attention of the most vulnerable people, who are generally those who are going through a bad time, results are promised in a short time.

They can be shakes, supplements or recipes fit, It is always about paying, investing your money in something that does not offer you any guarantee, in a miracle product that will supposedly change your life.

 

In many cases these are marketing campaigns disguised as reality.

 

There is the case of a very famous nutritionist who adopted a generic term, widely used in the US, as his own and even registered it. I don't know if he wanted to make believe that he invented the term, but of course it hit home and his success was overwhelming.

Anyone who wanted to be “sanote” or adopt a healthy lifestyle became a fan of this phenomenon, and even today, when it has been shown that behind all this there was only greed, it continues to have many followers.

It is important to note that not all nutritional influencers are professionally trained to provide personalized nutritional or dietary advice.

A healthcare professional should always be consulted before making major changes to your diet or eating habits.

If you, as a user of social networks and a potential client of health programs, do not want to be deceived, you must make sure of a few things before contracting any online service.

 

• Make sure that this person (coach or service provider) has the appropriate qualification for the activity they carry out.

For example, if he sells you a nutritional plan, he must be a Senior Dietitian or Dietitian-Nutritionist, not a "health expert" or "dietician" or "nutrition expert."

 

• Forget anyone who promises you immediate or short-term results. It is not true, you cannot undertake a change of habits and obtain immediate results. It is a process that requires time.

 

• Shakes and miracle products are usually a common hook, I'm sorry to tell you that they don't work.

At first it is possible that they do make you lose weight, but because you stop eating the foods that really nourish you and in the long term you can suffer from deficiencies. It is not the best way to change, or are you going to always be at their expense?

 

• Remember that correct nutrition must always be based on adequate food, and supplementation is possible on that basis, but never the other way around.

 

 

Acquiring accurate information is the best way we have to adopt a critical attitude in the face of such an avalanche of information.

 

That is why it is so important to take into account that the information provided by the influencers nutrition can be inaccurate or even dangerous in some cases.

Some may promote extreme diets or weight loss products that have not been supported by scientific evidence, or may offer nutrition advice that goes against the recommendations of recognized health organizations.

Hence, it is essential that people critically evaluate the information they receive from influencers nutritional.

You should always consult qualified and accredited health professionals before making any decisions about your diet or lifestyle.

It is important to remember that each body is unique and that nutritional needs vary from person to person, so the recommendations of the influencers nutrition may not be right for everyone.
