Nutritional
Medicine is the application of
"food as medicine" creating
innovative treatment plans
individually designed for each
patient and their condition.
Optimal conventional medicine
must also be part of the
treatment plan.
When
Nutritional Medicine is offered
a patient's diet along with
supplements, vitamins, and
lifestyle are adjusted and given
in a safe, effective, and
scientifically proven formulas.
This
will also include patient
education which is culturally
sensitive and counseling which
empowers the patient to stay on
a healing course.
Education in Nutritional
Medicine includes learning to
read food labeling, selecting
whole foods which are less
contaminated ,and learning how
to eat "mindfully".
Often,
Nutritional Medicine is combined
with additional therapies such
as Botanical Medicine and
Mycomedicinals which offer safe
and effective results when taken
in a standardized dose
prescribed by a qualified
practitioner.
Adding mind body
therapies such as guided imagery
can also be helpful in
Nutritional Medicine.
