Nutritional Model vs. Disease Model
Nutritional imbalances may cause reduced functionality,
reduced energy and vitality, feelings of discomfort,
or more pronounced symptoms.
Therefore, such symptoms are not necessarily caused by
dysfunction or disease but rather are a result of:
Systemic stress caused by nutritional depletion.
Reduced availability of nutrients in relationship to the demands placed on the body.
The body telling us it needs more of certain nutrients to perform according to the demands of our stress lifestyle.
Promoting Health and Balance
A balanced nutritional state is essential in maintaining health.
Your blood test may indicate the need for:
Vitamins such as B6, B12, D, and A
Iron
Fluid and Electrolytes balance
Minerals such as magnesium and calcium
Mineral Balance
Tissue Hydration
Antioxidants
Enzymes
Supporting Absorption of Nutrients
Nutritional support of key organs
Nutritional support of metabolic pathways and certain biochemical activities
Other key nutrients
Many nutritional deficiencies are in fact the result of disease processes, which may be blocking digestion, absorption, or other metabolic processes.
Nutritional supplementation in such cases does not address the disease but may reduce deficiencies caused by it, and thus result in improvement of symptoms.
For lasting results, underlying disease must be addressed.
