 Snapshot
NCP Step 3: Nutrition
Intervention
Definition:
A nutrition intervention is a purposely planned action(s) designed with the intent of changing a nutrition-related behavior, risk factor, environmental
condition, or aspect of health status to resolve or improve the identified nutrition diagnosis(es) or nutrition problem(s). Nutrition interventions are
selected and tailored to the client needs by planning and implementing appropriate interventions.

Determining a nutrition intervention:

The nutrition diagnosis and its etiology drive the selection of a nutrition intervention. The nutrition intervention is typically directed toward resolving
the nutrition diagnosis(es) by altering or eliminating the nutrition etiology(ies). Less often, it is directed at relieving the signs and symptoms of the
nutrition problem or problems. Nutrition intervention goals, ideally, developed collaboratively with the client, provide the basis for monitoring
progress and measuring outcomes.

Terminology for Nutrition I ntervention is organized in five domains (categories):
