Holistic nutrition nurtures the whole person – considering physical, emotional, and environmental factors, for an individualized approach supporting optimal health.
Key principles:
- Whole foods – nutrient dense, foods in their natural state vs. processed foods
- Balance + Moderation – balanced diet that incorporates a variety of foods and nutrients vs. restrictions and calories counting
- Mindfulness – listening to your body’s cues for hunger and fullness, and acknowledging the impact of stress and emotion on diet and physical habits
- Preventive + Integrative – prevention of illness through diet and lifestyle, supported by complementary therapies, such as herbal remedies or acupuncture
