Nutritional Therapy is the application of nutrition and health science to enable individuals to maximise their health or healing potential.
The internal environment of an individual is altered through diet, functional foods, nutritional supplements, detoxification and mindfulness. Individuals are also educated to make changes to their external environment and lifestyle to alleviate stressors and promote lasting health.
Nutritional Therapists follow a holistic approach by ‘treating the whole person’. They recognise that each person is an individual who has unique dietary and nutritional requirements. Individual prescriptions for diet, supplementation and lifestyle are based on medical, family and dietary histories and the appropriate use of biochemical markers through laboratory testing.
Nutritional Therapy can be
characterised by its:
- overall respect for the body’s ability to heal
- systems biology approach
- use of therapeutic supplementary nutrients
- recognition that brain nutrition can affect mental health
- inclusive integration of the emotional state of the patient
- acknowledgement that health is a state of physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity
