“The doctors of today must become nutritionists, otherwise the nutritionists will become the doctors of tomorrow.” – T. Eddison (1847-1931)
Naturopathic, Nutritional and Functional Medicine
Your nutrition, and your health, is about so much more than what you put in your mouth. It is about maximising your potential and it requires personal commitment. It is about feeling vibrant, energised and alive so you can fully engage with life on all levels with both its challenges and its joys.
A naturopathic and funtional approach to nutrition focuses as much on how you eat as it is does on what you eat. Your digestive ability, what you absorb, and the efficient removal of waste at a cellular and bodily level are largely dependent on how you eat your food.
Nutrition forms the foundations of your health at every stage of life; it is personal and unique to you. It is about eating the best possible balance of foods for you and your lifestyle, helping to nourish the body to enable healing and rejuvenation. If your nutrition is not optimised, your ability to heal from any condition will never reach its true capacity.
Indeed possible digestive, absorptive and eliminative inefficiencies can be a major cause of many common symptoms and conditions.
Any other conventional, complementary or alternative practice you may be receiving to improve your health will always be either supported, or hindered by your nutrition.
A full naturopathic consultation will assess your current nutritional, digestive, absorptive and eliminative status. Questions and concerns will be answered and addressed. Advice will then be given determined by your individual needs and lifestyle requirements.
Please refer to both the naturopathic medicine section and the functional medicine section for further understanding on the approach taken at the Plymouth Naturopathic Clinic.
