Why do you use Whole Food Supplements?
The supplements that we use are whole food concentrates from Standard Process, Inc, and whole herbal extracts from MediHerb- Australia. Created in 1929, these supplements are made of the best organic food and organic ingredients to provide deep nutrition to your body. These supplements are often just as important as the dietary changes we may recommend. These supplements speed recovery in areas where the basic diet may take a longer to heal, if at all. The journey to overall health and well-being should be fun. We customize your plan to your individual needs and capabilities to help ensure that you enjoy the process along the way.
Even though prevention is the best health insurance, most health imbalances that lead to illness can be treated. Most can even improved or even restored to their best potential.
Most imbalances in health that lead to illness can be addressed. Many can be substantially improved, while some can be completely restored to optimum function. But, prevention is paramount. Virtually every chronic illness is preceded by long-term disturbances in function that can be identified and effectively managed. Changing how the systems function can have a major impact on health. A Functional Nutritional Practitioner examines a wide array of available interventions and treatments, and customizes a plan that will have the most impact on the underlying cause of your illness.
Most physicians are trained to deal with acute care, such as treating a broken arm or responding to appendicitis. Conversely, a Functional Nutritional Practitioner (FNP) will spend time with you, listening to your histories, and evaluate and determine what genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors are affecting your immediate and long-term health. Your FNP will address the underlying cause of your illness, not just the symptoms.
At McCarter Health Center, we will take a science-based healthcare approach that assesses and treats the underlying causes of the illness through individually customized therapies to restore health and improve function. Prior to the patient’s initial visit, they will have completed a comprehensive questionnaire detailing events throughout their lifespan. Chronic disease or discomfort doesn’t occur overnight, therefore we look at numerous circumstances that will play a factor in the patient’s current health.
At McCarter Health Center, we look forward to guiding you in your overall health! We also are very happy you have decided to take the first step in your journey. We are confident that together we will find the underlying causes of your condition, and treat it accordingly with therapeutic nutrition and wellness changes.
