Nutritional needs today are very confusing. "No artificial sweeteners" or how about "Organic" or even worse "Natural"!!! What does that mean? It's so confusing. So, let's define nutrition:
nu-tri-tion n. (from dictionary.com)
1. The process of nourishing or being nourished, especially the process by which a living organism assimilates food and uses it for growth and for replacement of tissues.
2. The science or study that deals with food and nourishment, especially in humans.
3. A source of nourishment; food.
What do all three definitions have in common? That's right.... FOOD!
This is a great quote from Judith DeCava, CCN, LNC out of "Nutrition News and Views" Vol 3, No3:
"Nature does not produce vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, or any other food components in concentrated or segregated forms, but merges and blends them - synchronizes them - for the body's needs."
Food, natural in it's form, raw, is the best source of nutrition.
From Patrick Quillan, PhD Sept 2002 American Journal of Natural Medicine:
"The assumption that human technology could improve on the wisdom of Nature has become a primary cause of disease in the modern world."
I was priviledged to recently study under Jay R. Robbins, DC, DACBN, CCN (a clinical nutritionist and chiropractor) from San Diego. This man is a master nutritionist and I was able to study with him for 16 hours this past weekend and what a treat it was!
He broke things down into some simple things that I wanted to quickly share with you. Disease = cellular malfunction and there are two causes: Deficiency and Toxicity. Deficient in the things needed to sustain life (think about this...could you be deficient in Love!?!) and/or toxic with things that cause problems (could your negative thoughts be toxic!?!). The triad of health is Emotional --- Structural --- Nutritional.
Nutritionally, we use a product line called Standard Process and let me tell you why:
1. The products are made from food, not synthetic chemicals
2. The chiropractic nutritional researchers I rely on have themselves relied on Standard Process
3. In a world in which nutrition companies come and go, Standard Process has been there from the beginning and continues to grow stronger than ever
During the time with Dr. Robbins I was able to take away some great objective tools to help my patients, to take out the guess-work of nutrition, and a spot-on, individualized nutritional examination that is done in about 3-5 minutes!
If you want help with nutrition, weight loss, digestion, heartburn, constipation, IBS, Chron's, GERD, arthritis, chronic pain, fatigue, hormone dysfunction, osteoporosis, cramping, etc. There is nutritional help! Simple, fast, and healthy! Nutritional therapy does not cure these things... just like chiropractic, it aids your body to do what God intended.... for you to be healthy!
