Instagram posts for nutritionists: what to post and when
A nutritionist posts so the people looking for a specific change can find them: eating better, training or supporting a treatment. Here are ideas for the week, the best times to post for health businesses according to two public studies and the Feedmakers features that make each post.
What to post
- A nutrition myth and what the evidence says
- How to read a supermarket food label
- A lunch idea to take to work
- What the first appointment includes and how long it takes
- Online appointments: how they work and where you can join from
- A shopping list for the week
- What changes when you eat before and after training
- The questions you get most, one per post

Frequently asked questions
Can I keep it from promising results, like weight loss?
You can give it rules, like “don't promise results”, and the caption and the text in the image take them into account. Still, check every text before you post.
Is the copy evidence-based?
The caption is written by a language model from the details you give it, and it doesn't check the evidence for you. If a post gives a figure or a recommendation, confirm it before you post.
Does it make carousels?
Yes, on Starter and Pro: 2 to 7 slides from a planner idea. The cover is generated first and the rest follow its design.
How much does each post cost?
1 credit per image on Fast, 3 on Standard and 6 on High, and credits are only charged when the image comes out right. The caption doesn't spend credits.
