In Naturopathic Nutrition, We Follow These Simple Tenets
-
1. Nature is the most powerful healer.
The body can heal itself, given the right conditions, and in naturopathic nutrition, the practitioner harnesses nature to nourish the body and soul.
-
2. Consider the Cause, not the Symptom.
In naturopathic nutrition, we become detectives, delving into the food and lifestyle behaviours that are driving our clients current health challenges.
-
3. Look at the Person as a whole.
Food, genetics, environment, and life experience contribute to health. There is no "one size fits all" approach in naturopathic nutrition.
-
4. Prevention is Preferable to Cure.
Naturopathic nutritionists promote healthy nutrition and lifestyle to prevent disease rather than address conditions once they present.
-
5. The Importance of Education.
Naturopathic nutritionists seek to inform patients so that they can feel empowered to make the right long-term health decisions.
