Naturopathic Nutrition
When an individual has a nutritional deficiency, this can affect every biological system within the body since correct nutrition is required for every living cell, the immune system, nerve cells, bones and the hormone system. If an individual has a nutritional deficiency either from an incorrect diet or an inability to absorb the nutrients, they will likely have related health concerns. Our bodies are also exposed to toxins from environmental and chemical pollutants, genetic factors and stress from lifestyle; many individuals are not absorbing sufficient vitamins and minerals from their diets despite adequate food intake.
What’s it all about?
Whilst Nutritional Therapy does not seek to diagnose, treat or cure disease , it is common during the course of a consultation it will become apparent which areas of the body, and your life generally, should become the main focus of attention in the recommended nutritional and lifestyle modification program provided to every client. Such personalised programs aim to help you better achieve and maintain optimal health.
Many evidence-based scientific studies have found associations between food and illness. These studies show that our food choices can help maintain good health and treat disease. Susan’s approach to naturopathic nutrition is evidence-based and relies on traditional knowledge and scientific clinical trials to formulate your treatment protocol. Naturopathy nutrition may be used either as an alternative to pharmaceutical drugs and treatment or complementary.
Each treatment protocol is customised to suit your needs and lifestyle.
