Holistic Nutrition
Holistic nutrition focuses on a natural approach to a healthy diet and considers the individual as a whole, including all aspects of their lifestyle. This natural approach incorporates emotional, spiritual and physical health to create a state of well-being for optimum health. A holistic approach to proper nutrition encourages education on basic nutrition to develop a holistic diet that incorporates natural and organic foods, natural holistic supplements and food treatments for chronic health conditions.
“Today, more than 95% of all chronic disease is caused by food choice, toxic food ingredients, nutritional deficiencies and lack of physical exercise.” ~ Mike Adams
What is Nutritional Consulting?
Nutrition consulting is when a qualified nutritional practitioner works with individuals or groups to assess usual dietary intake and identify areas where change is needed. The nutritional counselor provides information, educational materials, support, and follow-up to help the individual make and maintain the needed nutritional and supplemental changes for optimal well-being.
