Eating Well in San Luis Obispo
The SLO WELLNESS CENTER bases their nutritional recommendations on a fundamental question of cellular physiology. What do cells need in order to survive and ultimately thrive?
Change your eating habits
The modern day Western diet is heavily weighted in simple grains, genetically modified foods, and processed subsistence. We do not consume enough fresh fruits and vegetables. Many of us get our whole grains from instant rice, refined wheat breads, pastas, and cereal. We eat a tremendous amount of prepackaged, pre-made meals. One-quarter of Americans eat at fast food restaurants each day. Americans are overfed and undernourished.
Better your nutrition
The consensus among scholars is that high carbohydrate diets, hinging on industrialized, processed foods, are primary contributors to the chronic illnesses currently plaguing Americans. This lack of nutrient dense food (non-processed) has increased our suffering from diabetes, heart attacks, obesity, and many other lifestyle related disorders
The good news is that, if properly fed and given the right nutrients, the human body is designed to repair itself. To do so, we often need a little guidance.
Let our doctors guide you
Our doctors can help get you going in the right direction and suggest some support to streamline your restoration!
- INITIAL EVALUATION- We start with a thorough consultation to discuss symptoms and goals. We often see patients that complain of symptoms such as fatigue, lack of energy, insomnia, congestion, digestion problems, body aches, constipation, chemical sensitivities, etc. Some symptoms are subtle and some more progressive.
- ASSESSMENT: We take a thorough assessment of all complaints and symptoms that are suggestive of a breakdown in your system and decide if more testing is needed.
- PLAN: We then come up with a specific plan involving diet, lifestyle modification, cleanse programs or prescribing certain supplements and high-quality herbs to help encourage optimal function and support to your body.
