Hippocrates is famous for saying “Let food be your medicine, & your medicine be your food”. Mother nature has provided us with the tools to heal. A healthy diet greatly impacts your body - both physically & emotionally. Nutrition is the foundation on which we heal & thrive in our lives.
Vitamins & Supplements Vitamins & minerals greatly impact disease & the prevention of disease. When used safely in the right form & dosages, significant transformations in health will take place. There exists a great variance in quality & forms of supplements. Naturopathic doctors carry only the most pure, quality forms which have been tested to be safe & absent of impurities. I consider myself a minimalist in terms of only prescribing as few supplements & in the lowest dose to elicit the wanted outcomes. When we are struggling with our health, taking the right supplements will greatly impact the speed of healing. Healing the body with diet alone, when there is a major deficiency, or pathology, will inevitably take much longer, & in some cases, not at all.
