why nutritional therapy
How Nutritional Therapy can help
As a nutritional therapist, I concentrate on the role of nutrition, nutrients
and other biological agents that may be used in conjunction with lifestyle
changes to assist you in maintaining optimal health.
Nutrition and lifestyle approaches to healthcare have been shown to
support the health of all the major systems of the body. Typical priorities
in nutritional therapy consultations are support to achieve optimum
energy levels, healthy blood sugar balance, emotional and
psychological wellbeing, optimum gastrointestinal health and tolerance
to a broad range of food groups.
Some people simply want to check that they are on the right track
with regards to healthy eating. Others may want to lose weight or
get help with their symptoms. Nutritional Therapists
recognise that each person is an individual with unique requirements
and I take a full medical history to uncover the root cause of you
symptoms and define a personalised and realistic nutrition plan for you,
rather than a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
Nutritional therapy includes:
• Encouraging metabolic & hormonal homeostasis
• Promote natural detoxification and elimination processes
• Augment immune function and performance
• Optimise skin vitality
• Support endocrine function
• Emotional and psychological wellbeing
• Promoting wellbeing within the pressures of a modern lifestyle
• Promote and support optimal thyroid function and performance
Increasing scientific research shows how many health conditions are
strongly influenced by our diet and lifestyle.
