What is Nutritional Therapy?
Nutritional Therapy is a science that uses natural medicine from food and supplements to promote good health.
It combines nutrients from food with naturopathy (natural, drug –free medicine), to prevent or combat disease and health issues, promote peak performance, or return an individual to optimum health.
It is holistic in its approach, treating the whole person from a physical, emotional & mental perspective rather than just seeing them as having a specific ailment.
In this way, unlike conventional medicine, Nutritional Therapy targets the root cause of a health condition instead of just focusing on the symptoms.
Health problems can be the result of vitamin/mineral or enzyme deficiencies or toxicity.
Vitamins can become depleted due to a stressful lifestyle, poor diet, medication, high levels of toxicity or infections, to name a few. Nutritional Therapy endeavours to find and correct these imbalances in your body.
Nutritional Therapy can greatly assist anyone who wants to make better food and lifestyle choices in order to manage their health.
In short, it is the perfect life insurance.
