Whilst wonderful medical advances have been made in modern times, orthodox therapies still have little impact on many chronic degenerative conditions. Pharmaceuticals can have serious side effects and are used primarily to suppress symptoms and stabilise acute conditionsMany degenerative conditions can be treated successfully using natural supplements and dietary changes.
The basic principles of Nutritional Medicine are to identify the underlying cause of illness, ensure the body receives the building blocks it needs to rebalance and repair itself and to remove from the diet substances that aggravate the condition and hinder the natural healing process.
As well as treating specific diseases, Nutritional Medicine is used to prevent illness developing. This focus, on prevention rather than cure, will enable us to take control of our health and meet the growing expectations of our aging population for an active longevity. |
