A Metabolic Approach to Holistic Nutrition 

The Importance of Metabolism

Metabolism has been described as the body’s powerhouse, providing needed energy that sustains life. The body uses the metabolic process to break down food and transform it into substances that provide and transport energy needed for activities and bodily functions. Metabolism can differ from person to person, which explains why people with similar diets and exercise routines may have a range of physical diversity. Malfunctions of the metabolic process can result in serious health problems such as weight gain and diabetes, where blood sugar is not metabolized properly.

By using a holistic food approach, we can target the root cause of metabolic problems. By diagnosing how an individual stores, and ultimately releases fat and energy in the body, a holistic program can use “food chemistry”, to correct imbalances in the body for optimum metabolic health.

An Individual Approach

In our Diploma program, Holistic nutritionists can learn how to implement a customized nutritional plan to regulate metabolism and promote the ideal body weight for each individual. We are unique individuals and, therefore, require a different combination of nutrients to maintain the optimum weight and provide energy. Following a healthy, well-balanced diet, plus exercise and a healthy attitude, will work to achieve a permanent weight loss and provide the nutrients that are deficient in the body.
