Holistic Nutrition
Optimum health is about so much more than the food that we eat. Holistic Nutrition Professionals take a look at how all of the factors in a person's life affect her wellbeing . . . what she eats, how she moves, her levels of stress, her sleep habits, emotions, social connections and environment, and her life of faith.
The National Association of Nutrition Professionals describes Holistic Nutrition beautifully:
"The philosophy of holistic nutrition is that one’s health is an expression of the complex interplay between the physical and chemical, mental and emotional, as well as spiritual and environmental aspects of one’s life and being. As such, professionals who are trained in holistic nutrition approach health and well-being from a whole-person perspective. Using nutritional education as a primary tool, holistic nutrition professionals emphasize the building of health by approaching each person as a unique individual. This requires fully engaging the individual in their Journey to a healthier lifestyle and honoring their innate wisdom by working in an empowering and cooperative manner to chart a course to optimal health."
