Nutritional Advice
Nutritional therapy uses food and supplements (vitamins and minerals) to encourage the body’s natural healing. Unlike dieticians, who follow medical guidelines to advise people how to meet government minimum recommendations, nutritional therapists take a more holistic approach to illness. 
The aim of the nutritional therapist is to detoxify the body, correct vitamin and mineral deficiencies, restore healthy digestion and help the client develop a positive mental attitude.
Nutritional therapists believe that many health problems are caused or aggravated by nutritional deficiencies. Deficiencies are not always caused by poor diet, but may also be due to infections preventing effective absorption of nutrients in the body, allergies, or excess toxins in the body.
By combining the principles of naturopathy, environmental medicine and nutritional research, therapists look at what nutritional elements may be missing and then use special diets or nutritional supplements to correct defi- ciencies and promote detoxification in the body. Once any nutritional defi- ciencies are taken care of, symptoms usually disappear.
