Nutritional
Therapy
Nutritional
Therapy can help with many different conditions. It seeks to alleviate
or prevent illness through dietary modification, "We are what
we eat" is remarkably true. 90% of our body renews itself every
three months and the building materials come from the food we eat.
This is why good nutrition is paramount to good health.
Most
of us try to eat a healthy diet but get confusing messages from
the media about what we should and shouldn't eat, and which supplements
we
should be taking. A consultation with a nutritionist will provide
you with an individual programme of suggesting foods that may improve
your health and if necessary recommend nutrients to help rebalance
your body and strive towards optimal health.
Nutritionists
believe that everyone functions differently, have different nutritional
requirements and all tolerate food in a different way. To help understand
more about how you function and what is wrong with you, blood and
stool tests are sometimes used to help target the appropriate treatment.
