Nutritional Medicine

"You are what you absorb"

To functional optimally we need to balance what we want and what our body needs.

There is a profound difference between what we choose to eat and what our body needs us to eat.  To function optimally, our body needs enough protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, fibre, water, sunshine, fresh air, exercise and love. 

It also needs support to help detoxify the pesticides, heavy metals, trans fatty acids, allergens, toxins, excess sugar and additives in our diet that undermine our energy, fertility and immunity.  If our detoxification abilities become overwhelmed our ability to fight disease is reduced significantly.
 
Optimal nutrition, digestion and detoxification is obtained through using the proper choice of diet, according to your individual needs which in turn helps your body fight disease and stay young and healthy.

Our nutritionists can help you ensure that your diet is supplying what your body needs to function optimally, maintain your immunity, energy and most importantly, break down toxic fat stores.

What happens in a consultation?

We take a thorough medical and lifestyle history, have you complete a subjective screening questionnaire of your symptoms with regard to your digestion, liver, kidney, weight, vitality, stress load, etc.

We analyse your food diary, assessing your intake of protein, carbohydrates, fat and fibre, your and toxic load, blood sugar rhythms and foods you may crave.

We will also organise in-clinic blood tests, urine tests and cellular health assessments.  A nutritional eating plan based on scientific fact is then developed to suite your body’s needs and your lifestyle.
