Medical Nutrition

Food can be powerful medicine. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) what people eat, in all its cultural variety, largely defines their health, growth, and development.

The role of one’s diet has long been recognized as a key risk factor for chronic diseases. Over the years, freshly prepared, largely plant-based diets, have been replaced by ones that are more processed, animal-based, and high in fat, calories, sodium, and cholesterol.

The MedFit Method for Nutrition™ offers you a new way to think about eating;

  • What you eat
  • Why you eat it
  • How you feel during & after
  • If the food you ate helped or hurt your body
  • How to make better choices based on the condition you have or want to avoid
