Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve answered the most common ones to get you started.
What can I expect during my first consultation?
During your first session, we’ll take a detailed look at your medical history, current eating habits, symptoms, and personal goals. Based on this, we’ll create a tailored nutrition plan that suits your lifestyle and needs.
Do you offer virtual consultations?
Yes! We offer both in-person and virtual consultations to make our services accessible wherever you are. Virtual sessions are conducted securely and with the same level of personalized care.
Do you accept medical aid as a method of payment?
Yes. Soyengwase Nutrition is registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and the Board of Healthcare Funders (BHF), so many medical aids reimburse part or all of your consultation fee depending on your plan.
How long does it take to see results?
Results vary based on your condition and consistency. Some clients notice changes within 2–4 weeks, especially with gut health and energy levels, while others with chronic conditions may take a bit longer.
Are your meal plans restrictive?
Not at all. We focus on balance and sustainability. Your plan will include foods you enjoy, and we’ll work together to find a rhythm that fits your lifestyle — not fights it.
Can you help with fertility and PCOS nutrition?
Absolutely. We specialize in hormonal health and fertility nutrition, including support for PCOS, menstrual regulation, and preparing the body for conception.
