Nutritional Therapy

In the last few decades, we’ve seen the progressive and dramatic decline and contamination of our food system. Many people, insufficiently aware of these changes, continue to eat a conventional diet filled with toxic chemical additives, preservatives, flavor enhancers, pesticides and genetically modified ingredients.

Our compromised, nutritionally depleted food system makes it difficult to derive all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals your body requires. So, nutritional therapy is increasingly important in recovering and maintaining optimal health and vitality. Nutritional therapy incorporates highly specialized nutritional formulations of vitamins, herbs, antioxidants and minerals that support and enhance your body’s ability to transform food into energy, reduce inflammation, balance blood sugar levels, optimize the elimination of wastes and toxins, strengthen immune system, and facilitate general circulation. Nutritional therapy also uses lab tests to assess the state of your digestive system and your microbiome, on which your health ultimately depends.

I recommend eating organic food exclusively, and eliminating all processed, chemical- and sugar-filled, and genetically modified foods from your diet. I help patients begin from wherever they are in their dietary habits, to make necessary improvements and changes in their dietary choices. People are often initially reluctant or resistant to making these changes. But when they see and feel the qualitative improvements in their health and vitality, they become motivated. There is nothing more satisfying than seeing patients recognize the value of rigorous self-care, develop healthy lifestyle habits, and transform their bodies, their health, and their lives.

Always eat and prepare whole foods, look for whole ingredients rather than refined. Refined foods are lacking vitamins and minerals that whole grains contain naturally, look at the nutritional labels. For a truly healthy focus, one that will boost your energy and improve your mental skills, include a wide variety of foods every day. A healthy diet consists of whole foods, foods that have their vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and enzymes intact, rather than extracted, refined, reformed, and rolled off the food factory lines in neat little packages that cheat you out of nutrition.

Improve your health by eating more fruits and vegetables and plant based foods. Try making your own green drinks, experiment with sprouting, and don’t forget juicing. These regimens with kick start you health in a whole new direction.
