HOLISTIC NUTRITION

Holistic Nutrition is a natural, wholesome way of eating and living.  It’s about what to eat and how to eat.  Our modern society has taken us away from knowing how to feed our bodies what they require, leading to a variety of complaints from obesity to serious illnesses.

 

In Holistic Nutrition, all body systems are considered as they each inter-relate.  A weakness in one area may affect various other areas.  For example, the digestive system plays a large role in our well-being.  If food is not digested or absorbed properly, allergies, fatigue and liver overload to name a few can result.  Through a holistic diet and lifestyle, we give ourselves the opportunity to help prevent and overcome numerous chronic conditions and illnesses.  It provides the foundation for proper functioning of the body systems.  Eating a wholesome diet is not as difficult as it may sound.  Although it requires dedication, healthy habits can be learned and you may be surprised to find out how enjoyable and delicious a healthy diet is!

 

In a session, individual dietary needs are taken into consideration based on symptoms, conditions and diseases.  Each holistic nutrition consultation is approximately 45-60 minutes in length.  Prior to your initial visit, you will be asked to complete a nutritional symptomatology and lifestyle questionnaire.  The initial session examines your current lifestyle, identifies weaknesses and areas for improvement, as well as realistic goal-setting.  Subsequent sessions focus on monitoring your progress, identifying improvements and setting further goals as needed.
