Who Should Consider Nutritional Therapy?
Do you suffer from a mood disorder?
There is compelling, empirical data that links anxiety and depression to various foods, poor gut health and/or vitamin and mineral deficiency. Diet and lifestyle choices play a significant role in brain health.
Do you suffer from neurological disorders such as ADD or ADHD?
Dietary issues such as blood sugar swings and neurosensitivity to chemicals found in much of our food supply can contribute to symptoms often misdiagnosed as ADHD.
Do you suffer from emotional or disordered eating?
Our nutrition experts provide a mix of compassion and guidance regarding food and lifestyle choices that set the client up for success and a peaceful relationship with food.
Do you suffer from digestive issues, have blood sugar swings, have trouble losing weight or simply want to learn a healthier lifestyle and don’t know where to start?
Our experts assess the different areas of burden that affect each client and design a plan tailored to that client’s individual needs. For more information on issues impacted by nutrition, click here.
