Clinical Nutrition Counseling

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” -Hippocrates

The Naturopathic Approach

Your body requires a certain amount of calories, proteins, fatty acids, vitamins, and fiber to maintain a high level of health and prevent future disease. As no two people are the same, you need a dietary plan specifically tailored to your needs. We will help you to know what your body’s needs are so we can develop an ideal nutrition plan.

Because food provides your body with what it needs to function, an imbalanced or inadequate diet can lead to all sorts of issues within your body. An unhealthy diet can contribute to fatigue, autoimmune, diabetes, anemia, digestive issues, emotional and behavioral problems, and many other issues. Naturopathic doctors know that there is much more to a healthy body than a simple number on a generalized scale such as BMI, we have your personal interest in mind and create what is best for YOU.

A Personalized Nutritional Plan

Naturopathic physicians can provide you with a variety of dietary options. There is no “one-size-fits-all” nutritional plan, we will work with you to develop a menu that optimizes your body’s health and that you can stick to long term. We are able to naturally treat many medical conditions with nutrition, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, arthritis, pain and many more.

Medically guided weight loss program

We provide the tools, education and accountability to help you lose weight in the healthiest way possible. Our program utilizes safe and effective ways to lose weight, heavily focusing on nutrition. Our 12-week weight loss program includes genetic testing that allows us to prescribe the diet most optimal to you, weekly weigh-in consultations, one group seminar to meet like minded individuals, and lasting habit changes that will guarantee life long success.
