Nutritional therapy is a system of healing based on the belief that food, as nature intended, provides the medicine we need to obtain and maintain a state of health: our food is our medicine and our medicine is our food.
This modality of thinking addresses conditions ranging from chronic fatigue, energy loss, insomnia and depression, to backache, skin complaints, asthma, and headaches. By speaking with those educated in nutrition, one may begin to make changes in their diet that improve specific conditions in addition to their general health and well-being.
Nutritional therapy is a holistic discipline; nutrition as the key to good health is the all-embracing fundamental principle. Today, new insights of food scientists play a significant role in the practice of nutritional therapy as preventative medicine.
