nutritional therapy

Nutritional therapists take a holistic assessment of their client, identifying in what ways the client has problems and what help they need. As part of the analysis of the conditions the therapist may use laboratory tests and diagnostic diets to try to find a definitive answer.

Nutritional therapists plan diets for their clients on a progressive basis, initially identifying the diet that can start helping the problems but continuing to monitor and adjust it as and when needed. Once the client’s health has improved their diet will be changed to a mild maintenance to prevent the symptoms returning.

The following are examples of diets the nutritional therapist may use: –

• Alkalinising diets

• Anti-candida diet

• Blood sugar control diet

• Elimination diet – Hypoallergenic diets

• Intestinal healing programme

• Liver rejuvenation programme

• Rotation diets

• Specific carbohydrate diet

• Stone age diet
