Nutritional Medicine in Bideford

Nutritional Medicine is a form of therapy that uses food, supplementary nutrients and cleansing procedures to alleviate or prevent chronic health problems. Whilst anyone can tinker with diet, the ability to apply nutrition to health effectively calls for well-developed professional skills. Prescriptions are based on medical, family and dietary histories, and practitioners develop diagnostic insight specific to this form of medicine. Our therapy is holistic because of its:

- drug-free nature,
- overall respect for the inherent vitality of cells and tissues,
- support for active biological processes rather than inhibitory methods,
- recognition that mental effects depend upon the nutrition of the brain,
- acknowledgment of the emotional state of the patient.

A practitioner of Nutritional Medicine may offer help with a wide range of conditions, the majority of which are not necessarily regarded in conventional medicine as being nutritional illnesses. These encompass an extremely wide range of chronic conditions, including most diseases and a vast array of symptoms - physical, emotional, mental - which can frequently be experienced outside the range of conventional medical diagnostic 'labels'.
