The
Importance Of Nutrition
By
Nancy Zivkovic, CNP, RNCP
Most of us think we have a "healthy"
diet. However, nowadays the quality of our food is
not what it once was. Did you know that premature
harvesting accounts for food value losses of up to
25%, transporting another 25% and storage can account
for losses up to 50%. So just how "healthy" is our
diet?
Today more than ever balancing lifestyle
and diet are extremely important. Each day we are
exposed to harmful chemicals in our daily lives from
the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food
we eat. From the moment we awaken until the time we
go to sleep, we are inundating our bodies with environmental
toxins.
The good news is our bodies have seven
organs of detoxification that help to manage this
toxic load. The bad news is overexposure to harmful
chemicals can compromise our ability to detoxify.
As a result, we may begin to manifest symptoms such
as fatigue, migraines, allergies, skin conditions,
aches and pains, constipation, bloating and obesity.
A holistic nutritionist can help by
identifying and addressing the root cause of the problem.
Benefits include increased energy, boosting immunity
and slowing down the time bomb of aging! Dietary programs
are customized to suit your individual needs helping
you to achieve optimal health and wellness. Holistic
nutrition gets to the root of the problem!
