Why Nutrition?
Modern diets, medical conditions and lifestyle factors such as stress affect the body’s nutrient levels and can lead to poor health. Chronic illnesses such as diabetes are on the increase and we are seeing dramatic increases in food allergies, asthma, obesity and infertility rates. A Nutritionist is able to tackle health problems by supporting the body towards normal function. Nutritional Therapy can help alleviate a wide range of conditions and assist in the recovery from many situations of ill health.
Optimum nutrition can also improve performance in sport, from exercise enthusiast to elite athlete a poor diet will prevent an individual from achieving their full potential. The performance of today’s athletes is far superior to those in earlier times and experts believe that advances in nutrition have been a major factor in these improvements.
Nutritional Therapy is classified as a complementary therapy but practitioners work successfully alongside medical and other health professionals.
