What is Nutritional Therapy?
Nutritional Therapy looks at the underlying causes and triggers of illness using functional medicine and naturopathic approaches.
After the huge genome project where scientists mapped our genes, they discovered that although our genes make us prone to certain disease manifestations the genes themselves are not the full story. They discovered that epigenetics - our environment - our diet, lifestyle, thought processes, stress, toxins, relationships all have a bigger impact on our health than genes alone. "Your genes load the gun, your environment pulls the trigger."
This can therefore give us hope, so even though you have, for example, cardiovascular disease and cancer in your family it does not mean you will necessarily get it. Every positive change that you make in your environment will help. In Nutritional therapy ww know that what you put into your mouth gets absorbed by your body and literally becomes your cells. It therefore makes sense that by putting real foods into our bodies we will have healthier bodies. But Nutritional Therapy looks further at the whole picture - your diet, your cosmetics, stress, relationships - and aims to improve and optimise your health by suggesting changes that you can make to optimise your wellbeing.
I can work to support and optimise your wellbeing if you have any health issue including, but not limited to:
Consultation
During the initial consultation we will go through your medical history and lifestyle, this will last about one hour as we develop a detailed picture of your health.
Prior to the appointment you will be asked to keep a 7-day diet diary to provide a snapshot of your eating habits.
Post consultation, your personalised nutritional programme, including some lifestyle recommendations, information leaflets, meal suggestions, recipes and supplement recommendations will be emailed to you within 7 days. This will take into account any medications you are currently taking ensuring there is no conflict (Drug-Nutrient interaction).
Once you have received your email we will discuss practicalities for implementing your programme and any concerns you have either through emails, a Skype call or in person (30 minutes) this is included in your initial consultation fee.
We will make a follow up appointment for around 4-6 weeks time so that we can assess progress and reevaluate your plan where needed, this follow up meeting will take approx 45 minutes.
It is important to be aware that Nutritional Therapy is not simply a diet to follow for a short period, it is a change of habit in your patterns of eating and in lifestyle choices. Therefore to achieve results you need to be prepared to implement the changes over the long term.
Please note advice given is NOT a replacement for seeing your GP and no medication should be changed or stopped without discussing this with your own GP first. I aim to work with your GP to support and optimise your health.
