Let Food Be Thy Medicine And Medicine Be Thy Food
~ Hippocrates
Our bodies were meant to be healthy! It is important for us to acknowledge that our bodies were designed to function in a state of perfect health. We are each responsible for our own good health but if you have moved away from perfect health, it is up to you to do whatever it takes to return to well-being. This process takes time…there simply are no quick fixes and getting to the root cause of one’s illness or dis-ease is the only solution.
As a nutritionist with a clinical background, Lisa will provide you with a comprehensive personal nutrition program that is easy to live with. One that not only considers you as a whole person but that is uniquely tailored to your specific biochemical/physiological/genetic makeup to help assist you in achieving the state of balance for which you were always meant to be. The consultation will include a thorough evaluation that incorporates a review of your current diet, weight history, general health history and family medical history. You will leave the session with initial recommendations based on your specific needs. Further dietary recommendations will be manageable, simple to incorporate, and can easily be obtained at your local market. Follow up visits will be spent learning basic facts of good nutrition and will include:
v Discussion of Nutrients and Fiber
v Review of Portion Sizes
v Reading and Understanding Labels
v Meal Planning
v Recipe Modification
v Grocery Shopping Fieldtrips (optional)
v Recommendations for Physical Activity
v Tools for Behavior Modification
v Examination of Food and Mood
Nutritional counseling is the recommendation of dietary modifications as a natural therapy to improve the state of one’s health. It is not about going on a diet. It is all about making healthful lifestyle changes that you can live with. Knowledge is empowerment and the key to success.
