What is

HOLISTIC NUTRITION

Holistic nutrition is the modern natural approach to developing a healthy balanced diet while taking into account the person as whole. Holistic nutrition is considered to be part of holistic health.(holisticnutrition.com)

​

It is an approach that treats a person's well being by taking into consideration all aspects of life. A long term course of action includes emotional and spiritual health along with the physical body. Modern medicine focuses on treating a symptom rather than the root cause. If a person is experiencing a symptom or chronic condition, the problem has most likely been developing for some time. The goal of holistic nutrition is to facilitate a healthy recovery plan as well as build a strong foundation for long term optimum health. (holisticnutrition.com)

​

Holistic Nutrition encompasses the person as a whole. It takes into account the need of the person to be healthy on the levels of the mind, body and spirit. We are emotional beings and food is considered to us to be means of social integration as well as sustenance.

WHAT IS A REGISTERED HOLISTIC NUTRITIONIST?

A Registered Holistic Nutritionist™ (RHN) is a professional trained in Natural Nutrition and complementary therapies, whose principal function is to educate individuals and groups about the benefits and health impact of optimal nutrition.
​
Mainstream medicine does not emphasize the significance of poor nutrition as a major cause of a wide range of health disorders. Although most people are aware of the benefits of sound nutrition, the range of conflicting information available to the consumer is often confusing. Holistic nutritionists guide their clients through the maze of information from books, magazines, supplements and diets on the market. They work with clients to identify and help correct the nutritional causes of diseases, and they are qualified to design personalized diet and lifestyle programs that optimize health.     ~CSNN website
