Nutrition

Nutritional Therapists guide their clients through safe and effective use of food, supplements and lifestyle change to assist the body’s own healing and to treat and prevent disease. They focus on the diet and how the body and mind react to different foods. The Therapist will ask for a full case history and an outline of present diet and problems. The client may be asked to keep a food diary to give the therapist a better understanding of the problem.

Nutritional therapy is based on the belief that food, as nature intended, provides the medicine we need to obtain and maintain our health. Although some health problems require specific medication, many conditions can be relieved with nutritional therapy including disorders ranging from energy loss, fatigue, depression, insomnia, skin conditions, asthma, and headaches.

Nutritional therapy can also benefit you even if you have no specific illness, but want to maintain good health.
