Some foods promote healing and others promote disease and inflammation. The same food can be nutritious for one person but detrimental to another person’s health. Naturopathic doctors are experts at identifying food sensitivities, sometimes with testing and sometimes through dietary changes. They can also assess your nutritional status with lab work and recommend supplementation to correct any deficiencies.
Common dietary interventions include elimination diets, modified meal planning and the addition of healing foods. Our naturopathic doctors can provide you with an individualized dietary plan and our nutritionists are experts at supporting you in implementing the plan.
