The body needs six different types of food to enable it to operate effectively.

The three building blocks are proteins, carbohydrates and fat. Vitamins and

minerals are needed to stimulate the enzymes and chemical reactions in the

body and the sixth element is water. To obtain optimum nutrition the body

needs around 60% carbohydrates, 10% - 15% protein depending on age and

activity levels, 25% fats, various vitamins and minerals and plenty of fluids – at

least 2 litres or 6 – 8 large glasses of water a day.

To be healthy we need to understand what is good for us by reading the signs

and signals our body sends and then adjusting our eating habits in order to

obtain the optimum nutrition in order to function in the most efficient way.

Everyone is unique and no one diet fits all. Factors such as metabolic rate,

genes, lifestyle, exposure to pollution, stress levels the amount of exercise and

of course food and liquid intake all dictate the levels of our health and

wellbeing.

In the Western world many people suffer with obesity which leads to ailments

and illnesses due to poor diet. By choosing the wrong foods for our body we no

longer receive the nutrients in order to obtain optional hormonal and

metabolic balance. Nutritional Therapy helps you to retrain your body by

eating the right foods for you in order to boost your health and wellbeing,

increase your energy and live your life to the full.
