Regular nutrition focuses on “what food to eat”, the recommended daily allowance of macronutrients that will support your weight related goals. But food is only part of the story. Clearly, the “what to eat” is important, since it is the fuel your body needs to function, but mind-body nutrition also focuses on the “who, how, when & why” of eating, which all play an equally, if not more important role in a healthy relationship with food. It defines who you are as an eater. So let me tell you a bit more about mind-body nutrition and the direct benefits it can have on your overall health and wellness.
a holistic approach to FOOD
Nutrition is not just about losing weight or understanding the nutrient profile of food. Optimal nutrition lays the groundwork for the body’s natural defenses to heal itself, while minimizing risk for disease. Unfortunately, nutrition recommendations are for the general population – not individuals. A Holistic Nutritionist is trained to dissect the research and translate it into personalized nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. Through consulting with a mind-body nutrition expert, you can go beyond the studies to discover the best foods for your life based on your unique requirements and more importantly, based on your physiologic state.
Finding a way to nourish YOUR MIND, BODY & SOUL
With mind-body nutrition, we see nutrition in a whole new light. We focus on how your mind can impact the way your body metabolizes the food you ingest. Thus, implementing mind-body nutrition rapidly allows you to experience numerous benefits in all areas of your life.
This includes health changes such as:
- Increased energy levels
- Easier weight loss
- Boost in metabolism
- Reduced cravings & more manageable hunger
- Improved digestion & nutrient absorption
- Reduced stress & mood swings
Mind-body nutrition allows you to understand how your metabolism is affected by your psychological and emotional mindset. You could be eating the “cleanest” possible food in the world but not be receiving it's full nutritional value when you are not in the optimal physiological state of RELAXATION. Mind-body nutrition takes into account that your physiologic state and the food you ingest are working in perfect harmony, to reach the best results.
