NUTRITION EDUCATION & COUNSELING

Clinically based nutritional guidelines are made practical for each patient

Optimal nutrition, the level of nutrient intake that promotes optimal health, varies for each person and is a function of our “biochemical individuality.” This is the modern scientific counterpart to the ancient concept of constitution. Nutritional assessment can help determine what an individual needs to help restore and maintain health in terms of nutritional and/or metabolic imbalances. Current research and nutritional guidelines are used to make dietary and supplement recommendations. Used in conjunction with the older traditional systems of nutrition, modern nutrition can provide clear and specific guidance in the treatment of many modern health concerns.
