Conventional medicine and therapy are essential in acute conditions such as infections or trauma. However, with the growing incidence of obesity and chronic conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, there is a clear need for preventative medicine. Nutrition plays a crucial role in our well-being; it is not just about keeping hunger at bay. It is our opportunity to nourish our body with anti-inflammatory foods, rich in vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids for energy production, healthy growth, maintenance and repair.
Nutritional therapy is a holistic approach that focuses on identifying the root causes of symptoms, using food as medicine to help improve overall health. At Nutri Assist, we use evidence-based practice to provide the best possible care for our clients. Their individual characteristics e.g. age, food sensitivities and health condition, are taken into account before personalised nutrition plans and lifestyle changes are recommended.
