Brief Answer:
Welcome to HCM!

Detailed Answer:
XXXX, .
I am sorry, could you explain this a bit better?I have no idea what this "nutritionist" wants you to do. What did you see this nutritionist for? It was this person's job to explain this whole set-up to you.

Please provide me information on the purpose of using these "balls" to record foods you should and should not eat. What is your long term goal? What is this information you feed into the computer to be used for?

I need a little more clarification to understand what you are trying to accomplish.

I look forward to your reply. It is 6:30 pm my time. Regards, XXXXXXX Shattler, MS,RDN

Brief Answer:
I have not heard of it

Detailed Answer: XXXXXXX hello

No, I have never heard of what you are describing. The microbial he his talking about more than likely is a "probiotic", live beneficial microbes that help you lose weight. I do not know where to obtain the strain he is referring to. However, all probiotics in yogurts with live cultures are beneficial to the gut in making the bacteria "balanceed", but again, it is hard to say with the information you have given me.

It sounds like if you do not understand what he is doing, it is not the right method for you. The right method is the one the WORKS for you. If you don't understand it then it won't work. If it is so restrictive that you cannot follow it then it is not a workable plan.

What is your diet order? I suggest if you do not understand this method, you may wish to speak with someone else about this issue.

To answer your question, with the information you gave me stating that he took away a lot of food; not knowing the credentials of this doctor; I do not see it as a helpful technique for you to learn. XXXXXXX Shattler MS,RDN

Brief Answer: XXXXXXX thank you for the letter and report

Detailed Answer:
Ok, let us try another method of inquiry. I cannot read greek, can you?

Please tell me what you saw the doctor for and what it is you are trying to do. What is your diet order? Are you supposed to be following a certain diet due to medications? If so, please list. Related to diagnosis?

What was he trying to teach you with the "balls attached to the computer"?

What does this attached letter say? Can you send it to me in translated form?

I am trying my best to help but the description of your situation is very sketchy.

What are the names of the medicines and foods that this nutritionist sent you?
