français term

adapté à toutes les pathologies

français vers anglais Médecine Médecine (général) Weight loss
Adapted to help prevent all diet induced pathologies?
That seems to be adding too many words.
I think that is the proper sense of what they are saying, but I am a bit blocked on how to say this simply in English.

"concilier les habitudes alimentaires d’un individu avec un équilibre nutritionnel adapté à toutes les pathologies."

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

français term (edited): adapté à toutes les pathologies."

adapted for all pathologies

I would go with a bit more literal approach since there are all sorts of pathologies that require dietary adjustment such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia, celiac disease, etc.

suitable/appropriate/suited for...

I tend not to use "adapted" in this context. I think this means that the diet is suitable/appropriate/can be used for any type of illness - and not that it has been specially adapted
