NUTRITIONAL MEDICINE

---

The typical Western diet is seriously deficient in fruits and vegetables and contains excessive amounts of meat, refined grain products and refined sugar. Such a diet can have numerous adverse effects, all of which promote degenerative diseases. An inadequate intake of fruits and vegetables results in a much lower intake of antioxidants and an imbalanced intake of essential fatty acids. This will specifically push the body into an acidic state which promotes further disease growth.

Nutritional Medicine describes the application of diet modifications and nutritional supplements to treat disease. With respect to the patient's health condition, the diet alterations and nutritional programs are tailored to the needs of the individual person. The nutritional supplements utilized may include vitamins, minerals, detoxification methods and other programs to fit your specific needs. When administered under the supervision of a doctor, the use of nutritional medicine is both safe and effective.
