Holistic nutrition looks at individuals through a broad lens; In addition to the client's nutrition habits, it considers their lifestyle, environment, mental health and more to determine how nutrition can best be used to reach their goals. In short, holistic nutrition is the opposite of a one-size-fits-all approach.
Food Focused Approach
As a nutritionist, my approach is always 'food first.' What does that mean? This simply means that we aim to get all of the nutrients you need to feel your best through food before we consider supplements. Additionally, I am ALL about abundance and take an unrestrictive approach to diet. So don't be afraid that you'll have to give up your favourite foods!
Do you still work with supplements?
Yes! It can be challenging to get everything you need from food all of the time, especially with busy lifestyles and dietary restrictions. That's where supplements come in as just that - a supplemental form of a required nutrient. Supplements can be temporary or ongoing, but don't worry - I always work with you to determine what best suits your needs, lifestyle and budget.
Lifestyle & More
In holistic nutrition, we dive deep to figure out what aspects of your life may be contributing to nutrition related issues. This includes discussing sleep, exercise, stress management, lifestyle and more. Through our time together, I educate you on how these things relate to nutrition and provide recommendations that are unique to your circumstances.
