Nutritional Medicine involves detailed analysis of the individual’s dietary intake along will a physical examination. Information collated will help to identify nutritional insufficiencies or deficiencies. Shortfalls in specific nutrients contribute or cause disease and therefore by modifying the diet, healing can take place. Nutritional medicine is also a fundamental part of dealing with allergies and intolerances. By identifying which food/s are causing adverse reactions, symptoms will be alleviated. Where possible, dietary changes will always be implemented to provide proper nutrition before supplementation is suggested. This is due to the fact that nutrients in foods are utilised more efficiently in the body than those from supplements. |
