Nutritional Medicine

Picture
Nutrition establishes a relationship between diet and our level of health.
Diet and lifestyle are the most simple and cost effective factors to consider if we are to reach our goals of optimal health and longevity.
Some key elements of health and longevity is the daily balance of adequate water, fresh (organic) whole foods, fresh air and sunshine, adequate sleep, physical activity, meditation, relaxation, laughter and social interaction!

Addressing diet and creating a comprehensive balanced program of nutrition through whole foods and nutritional supplements is one of the main ways to regain and maintain health. Making changes in this area can boost energy levels and correct symptoms caused by digestive disturbances, nutritional deficiencies and food allergies/sensitivities.
In addition, programs can be successfully used to help with following a modified diet such as a gluten free / dairy free / vegetarian or vegan diet or just get back on track with healthy eating.

Below are some suggestions regarding food and diet that can be part of a healthy life.
Try to eat seasonally. We can now get most foods most of the time and restricting intake to the seasons may seem unnecessary. Summer foods are juicy and light and easily digested. They provide moisture and have cooling properties but in winter they don’t provide enough carbohydrate needed to keep warm. Winter foods should be mainly beans, legumes and root vegetables these are warming on a cold day.

Eat a varied and interesting diet. A good diet does not have to be boring or  
deprived; some of the healthiest and long-lived people in the world at the most interesting and tasty food. Everyday try to have a colourful plate of nuts, seeds, fruit, vegetables, wholegrains and legumes, the more colour the more able you are to get a good cross section of vitamins and minerals. Including a broad variety of all food groups is important to avoid deficiencies and ensure production of  enzymes, hormones and other substances essential for a range of bodily functions such as normal growth and development and boosting your immune system.

Eat fresh and organically grown foods where possible. Fresh is best – there are less preservatives, nutrient levels are higher and it often tastes better. Enzymes derived from ‘live food’ helps the digestive processes in the body too. Where possible, buy organic foods to minimize exposure to chemicals.
