Nutritional Therapy in Denver
Extensive medical research over the last half-century has confirmed the correlation between diet and physical and mental health conditions. What you put in your body greatly affects your physical performance, energy level, mood, emotional state, and mental capacity. For this reason, The Healing Center Denver invests considerable time, energy, and resources in nutrition.
How Does Nutritional Therapy Help?
This therapy helps you achieve lasting health through a holistic and bio-individual approach, improving your diet and lifestyle to get the results you want.
Malnutrition often causes health problems. Following these protocols, we can reverse the negative effects of a poor diet. Our programs give you the tools and techniques to identify and correct nutritional imbalances and deficiencies.
Our programs cover scientific principles about how the human body functions, both anatomically and physiologically. Therapy addresses a range of issues, including
- Healthy meal preparation
- Eating nutrient-rich whole foods
- How digestion works
- Blood sugar regulation
- Understanding fatty acids
- Consuming the right minerals
- Adequate hydration
- Avoiding foods that hurt your body
What Does It Include?
It includes checking your nutrition status and giving the right foods or nutrients to respond to conditions caused by diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. It may involve simple changes in your diet, or intravenous or tube feeding. Also known as medical nutrition therapy, it may help you recover more quickly and spend less time in the hospital.
Our Assessment
Our providers perform a comprehensive nutrition assessment before starting care. We conduct a detailed, systematic evaluation of your nutritional status to diagnose malnutrition, and identify underlying pathologies, which are the foundation of your diet plan.
Diet Plan
A plan with specific nutrition interventions is developed to help manage your condition. By determining what your nutrient intake should be, we create a nutritionally adequate diet to address any nutritional inadequacies.
Follow-Up Visits
These appointments are crucial to your diet plan, because they alert us to the need for adjustments as you go through the program. Repeated visits involve monitoring and evaluating your progress, and also support your behavioral and lifestyle changes, as well as any health or medication changes.
Typically, the therapy stays in place until you achieve your initial goals or we resolve the health condition. With slight variations, we can adjust the plan, so you don’t have to start over.
Health Issues We See
At The Healing Center Denver, we help alleviate health issues through proper diet. Our dieticians assess your nutrition and lifestyle to develop a healthy diet suited to you. A healthy diet can improve a wide range of conditions, such as
- Leaky gut
- Celiac disease
- Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
- Crohn’s disease
- Intestinal bacteria
- Food intolerance
- Fatigue or low energy
- Acid reflux
- Bloating
- Chronic constipation
- Chronic diarrhea
- Candida
Digestive issues are common issues for our new patients. A healthy gut is necessary for the body to get the nutrients it needs. When nutritional deficiencies arise, nutrients are unavailable, or we aren’t absorbing them because the gut is inflamed.
We specialize in getting to the root cause of your GI issues through lab testing and other cutting-edge therapies. GI support is an aspect of our patients’ customized care plans.
Food Is Medicine
Our team specializes in patient education and self-management to achieve optimal nutritional wellness. We educate patients about how food is medicine. We focus primarily on how blood sugar balance is key to achieving and maintaining your health and wellness goals. Your customized plan will include a nutritional protocol tailored to your case.
We prescribe advanced, healthy supplements based on your specific needs. Supplements address deficiencies you have difficulty managing through food intake alone. We also provide delicious recipes and meal plans to support your nutrition protocol.
