Medical Nutrition

Medical nutrition comprises two essential aspects of naturopathic patient care.

First, naturopathic physicians are trained to evaluate the individual needs of each patient regarding potential nutrient deficiencies. This can range from standard screening for iron, B-12, and vitamin D deficiency to more complex lab evaluation of micronutrient deficiencies, or problems with methylation. Additionally, naturopaths are trained to make recommendations based on the patient's needs, lifestyle, diagnosis, and medications. Naturopaths offer nutritional therapies such as vitamin injections, nutrient IVs, and pharmaceutical grade supplements.

Second, medical nutrition entails an individualized, physician supervised, nutrition plan based on the patient's needs and diagnosis. Nutrition plans may vary from a diet designed to reverse autoimmunity, to one designed for weight loss, cardiovascular health, or type II diabetes. It may also be used in the treatment of food allergies such as Celiac, lactose intolerance, or other digestive complaints.  In this way, your naturopath with work one on one with you, creating a meal plan designed especially for you so that you know what foods to eat, what foods to avoid, and achieve optimum health.
