PiLeJe’s Expertise in Nutrition

Anyone who adopts a healthy and balanced diet can return to a “healthy weight” and enjoy feeling fit and well. Moreover, a healthy diet helps prevent the many pathologies associated with a diet that contains excessive quantities of carbohydrate and fats.

Re-balancing a diet to achieve the goals mentioned above, and to lose weight in particular, cannot be achieved without individualised support. 

PiLeJe specialises in the manufacture of high-quality nutritional products, which are recommended by health professionals, and in the development of aids and techniques for changing behaviour. Both of these types of product can help individuals achieve their weight-loss goals.

L'accompagnement dans la démarche nutritionnelle

 

Support for healthy eating

Obesity and overweight are chronic disorders which require long-term support and management. Each individual must make healthy nutritional and lifestyle choices regularly and durably; this cannot be achieved without help from a health professional trained in how to provide this support.

Concentrating solely on diet, with the help of a dietician and/or on fitness with the help of a trainer, for example, is not enough. The limited scope of approaches such as these explains why many people give up on a new diet or lifestyle choice. Sooner or later, old eating patterns or lifestyle choices return, often due to insufficient support and motivational encouragement.

The three key requirements for achieving durable weight loss are: re-balancing the diet, developing a more positive body image and learning how to manage everyday emotions. This last requirement is essential in terms of staying on track for the long term.

Nutrition today

In recent years, overweight and obesity have become major, international public health issues. 

According to the WHO, 35 % of all adults worldwide are obese or overweight. 
In France, despite a stabilisation in the figures between 2006 and 2015, the percentage of overweight and obese adults in 2015 was high at 49 % (54 % for men and 44 % for women)*.

There are two main causes: diets which are too rich in carbohydrates and fats and our increasingly sedentary lifestyles. Our bodies are no longer using up all the energy that we consume as food!
