Holistic nutrition is about eating healthy food to optimize health & well-being

Holistic Nutrition is not a service offered by Zenith Physio Pilates. It is an independent service offered by Janice Amirault at our clinic location.

In today's fast-paced, high-demand world, we have become a culture focused on convenience and that includes how we eat. When hunger strikes, it's much easier to open a can, unwrap a package or pop a lid than it is to actually prepare a fresh meal. But according to holistic nutritionists, the cost of convenience is not so much the impact on your pocketbook, as it is the impact on your health. With the epidemic rise of obesity and diabetes, the link to your health and what you eat has taken centre stage and many are looking to holistic nutrition as a way to not only feed their bodies but heal themselves as well.

What is holistic nutrition?
Holistic nutrition is all about eating healthy food as close to its natural state as possible for optimum health and wellbeing. Hallmarks of holistic nutrition include unrefined, unprocessed, organic and locally grown whole foods. It's an approach to eating that very consciously considers everything that's eaten and focuses on eating for health above all else.

Top health benefits of a holistic diet
Holistic nutritional consultants believe that food is not only fuel, but medicine for the body. As once stated by Hippocrates, "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food," which is a principle embraced and promoted by holistic nutritional practitioners.

Personalized treatment
Holistic Nutrition is based on client assessment via nutritional symptomatology, which deals with the study of symptoms as they relate to nutrition. It forms a valuable tool for assessment of nutritional deficiency and for disease prevention. After compiling your health information, a personalized meal plan and recipes are designed to make your diet changes easier. Support is provided in-between sessions to help you achieve your goals..
