CLINICAL NUTRITION IS SCIENCE
A patient’s nutritional status is a vital clue to his or her overall health. The key is to accurately define why a health problem has arisen and which factors require balancing to restore health. The proper program for you is based on how you present and the very specifics your body is requesting. The Integrative Assessment Technique allows us to dialogue with the communications your body is sending, and to create the very protocol you need for recovery.
CHANGE IS AT THE ROOT OF GOOD HEALTH
Change is one of the most fundamental principles of the universe. Over time, things change. It is that simple. If we do not recognize the body’s effort to correct itself, in time, we manifest disease.
Your digestive tract is composed of ‘smooth muscle,’ as opposed to the ‘striated’ muscle that comprise your biceps, quads, etc. Why is this relevant? When you injure a muscle or have muscle strain, you respond in kind with treatment or at times with pain relievers. However, when your gut is stressed and suffers, often nothing is done to relieve its strain – the strain associated with processing all the food you eat, day after day, week after week, year after year. The symptoms your body produces are communications that you need to respond to intelligently.
DIETS NEED CHANGE
Most people know that their dietary needs at 20 are different than at 50. What most people don’t realize is that your dietary needs at 20 and 21 may be different, based on the circumstances of your life, and this goes for any period of time. Our primal relationship with food is often fixed, or determined by marketers and media. To determine what dietary needs you have we utilize a variety of techniques; the recommendations made will be customized to your life in this moment.
