Optimal Nutrition
“Nutrition Confusion” is all too common these days. People attempting to research the optimal diet are often left with more questions than answers. If you asked most people about foods that are “good” or “bad” for you, you’d get a dozen different answers. The Internet and the media magnify this confusion, and you’re left asking yourself: Where shall I go? To the left where nothing’s right or to the right where nothing’s left?
Our nutrition approach is based on the most current nutrition science which revolves around eating foods based on your genetic blueprint, microbiome, lifestyle, and health goals. There is no single “perfect diet” that applies to all of us. We all have different genetic backgrounds, different preferences, and different lives. We use targeted laboratory testing and individualized nutrition assessment, evaluation, intervention, and monitoring.
Customized Nutraceutical Formulas
Nutraceuticals are scientifically-created formularies that contain essential vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and co-enzymes that work with your biology by supporting normal enzyme function and critical biochemical reactions. You were designed to receive these nutrients through your diet, but that’s not realistic in today’s world. Think of it like this: Nutraceuticals are an insurance policy to ensure your body has all the information it needs to facilitate billions of cellular mechanisms.Why We Need Nutraceutical Support
In a perfect world, no one would need additional support. We would receive all of our essential nutrients right from our diet. But given the stress of our modern life, the poor quality of our food supply and the high load of toxins on our brains and bodies, most of us need a basic daily supply of the raw materials to ensure that our enzymes and biochemistry run as designed. Most of us are actually nutritionally depleted because of our consumption of prescription drugs and low-nutrient foods that are highly processed, hybridized, genetically modified, shipped long distances and grown in nutrient-depleted soils.Research has indicated that over 92 percent of Americans are deficient in one or more vitamins. As certified clinical nutritionists, we have years of clinical training and experience to dispense personalized quality nutraceutical formulas based on each patients unique presentation and goals. We only use wellness formulas from trusted sources who require a medical license to use their therapeutic products.
