Clinical Nutrition
Personalized dietary guidance for optimal health and disease management
About This Treatment
Clinical nutrition uses food and nutrients as medicine to prevent and treat disease. Practitioners assess your nutritional status, identify deficiencies or imbalances, and create personalized dietary plans. This may include whole foods recommendations, therapeutic diets (like anti-inflammatory or elimination diets), and targeted supplementation based on your unique needs.
