The nutritional approach to health and well-being is not new. In AD 390 Hippocrates said “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”. In the early 20th century Thomas Edison said “The doctor of the future will no longer treat the human frame with drugs but rather will cure and prevent disease with nutrition”. In the 1960s Dr Linus Pauling coined the phrase ‘orthomolecular nutrition’. Quite simply - by giving the body the right (ortho) molecules, most disease could be eradicated. “Optimum nutrition”, he said “is the medicine of tomorrow”.
What you eat and drink are vital to what you are - and what you may become. Every time you choose something to eat - be it a meal, a snack or something consumed 'on the run', you are making a decision that can affect your body in a positive or a negative way.
Nutritional therapy is considered to be a complementary therapy, which can be used alongside orthodox medicine. Therapists sometimes work with patients referred by medical practitioners, who have chronic health problems that conventional medicine may find difficult to treat. The therapist works closely with the client to conduct a holistic assessment of their nutritional requirements and to compile an individual prescription for diet and supplementation, in order to alleviate, or prevent illness and promote optimal health.
