Clinical Nutrition is a modern science with ancient beginnings. Our evolving diet benefits from a stream of human experience and a wealth of scientific research that will dramatically change the way we eat and look at food.

With the expectation that clients are opened to changing eating habits, therapeutic benefits can be quickly achieved.

What can I expect from my Nutritionist?

Many people think of a nutritionist as trying to take their ice cream away and perhaps only associate them with weight loss in practice. But nutritionists are trained professionals skilled in developing unique, customized programs including foods, supplements and lifestyle modifications that will allow you to reach your specific health goals.

Though obesity is often an underlying issue among patients and weight loss will frequently help resolve an issue, it is not the chief goal of your provider. In effect, after a few consultations, as clients improve their metabolism, often by simply eating better foods, they will not only come to solve their initial problem but naturally lose weight in the process.

Providing the education and motivation required to get you on the path to your individualized state of optimal health is the goal of every nutritionist.

Some basic dietary principles-

Nutrition affects all diseases and is fundamental to improvement. From digestive problems, to skin issues, eye problems, cardiovascular disease, cancer, autoimmune disease, nutrition, often paired with herbal medicine and dietary supplements, can always come to the rescue.

Good nutrition benefits cardiovascular health, lowering the risk of stroke and heart attack. It can also be a major part of treatment for elevated blood pressure and related cardiovascular problems.

Individuals dealing with cancer are often surprised how important nutrition and herbal medicine can be to their improvement, quality of life, and longevity, especially when nutritional/herbal supplements are paired with chemotherapy or as an alternative to other therapies.

The promise of nutrition is summed up in the emerging field of nutrigenomics, how nutrients and diet affect the way our genes behave and the way our cells “communicate”.

Investing in your health today will pay off in the future.

Why should I see a Nutritionist?

Dietary solutions and botanical/herbal medicine can be helpful in the prevention of disease, supporting your body through an illness, losing weight, maximizing your fitness program, as well learning how to eat healthy.

But what if you already eat a balanced healthy diet? Unfortunately, the diet of our ancestors is not everything it used to be. Due to growing techniques, soil quality and delivery of foods to the markets valuable nutrients in have declined. Meeting with a nutritionist can help you determine if you are in need of any nutrition supplements and if so which ones and what dosage is appropriate for your specific needs.
