Nutritional advice at
Dr Beate Helgers’ practice
Personalised nutrition plans for
your health, energy and quality of life
Diet has a greater impact on our wellbeing than many people realise. What works for one person may not be as suitable for another. That is why, at our practice, we take the time to work with you to find out how you can adapt your diet to your lifestyle and any specific health considerations you may have. Our aim is to provide practical, medically sound dietary advice that really helps you make progress – without rigid rules, but tailored to your wishes and needs.
When is nutritional counselling worthwhile?
There are many situations in life where a consultation with an experienced nutritionist can help:
- If you’d like to change your weight:
Whether you want to lose or gain weight – together we’ll find a way that fits into your daily life. - For chronic conditions:
Diet can have a positive impact on the progression of many conditions. This applies, for example, to diabetes, rheumatism, osteoarthritis or osteoporosis. We’ll help you tailor your diet specifically to these conditions. - For sporting goals:
People who do sport have specific needs. We’ll show you how to use your diet to improve your performance and recovery. - For food intolerances and allergies:
If certain foods cause symptoms, it’s important to find alternatives that taste good and provide all the essential nutrients. We offer personalised advice – practical and suitable for everyday life.

. Anyone who trains regularly benefits from a tailored diet: for better performance, faster recovery and a lower risk of injury. - For people who often feel
stressed or exhausted Nutrition can also help you regain energy and boost your well-being in everyday life.
Why is diet so important for rheumatism,
osteoarthritis and osteoporosis?
A targeted diet can have a direct impact on inflammatory processes, joint metabolism and bone health, for example in the case of:
- Rheumatism:
Certain foods with anti-inflammatory properties – such as fish rich in omega-3, linseed oil or turmeric – can relieve pain and reduce chronic inflammation. Cutting down on excessive sugar and red meat can also have a beneficial effect on the immune system. - Osteoarthritis
: Antioxidants from fresh fruit and vegetables (e.g. berries, broccoli) and sources of collagen such as bone broth support cartilage health and can help counteract joint wear and tear. Vitamin C is also important, as it promotes the body’s own collagen production. - Osteoporosis
: Calcium (e.g. in dairy products and green vegetables), vitamin D (e.g. from sunlight and oily fish) and magnesium are essential for strong bones. They help to maintain bone density and reduce the risk of fractures.
