Nutrioptima is about
the science of how to gain the optimum amount of nutrition from the foods that you
eat based on diagnostic blood profiling. It is the science behind the biochemistry of how your body utilizes food in order to metabolize it for many uses.
About Diagnostic Blood Profiling
In order to generate a
unique plan for an individual, the Healthy & Active Program uses the
results of a combination of diagnostics; blood test, medical history, and your
current health needs and goals. Combined, the results will reveal patterns that
indicate what your nutritional needs are. These revealed patterns unlock the mysteries
of your body – they can indicate the functioning of your organs, internal
systems, thyroid and hormone functioning, and more.
Revisiting the
application of this research and philosophy regarding blood chemistry screening
and diagnostic tools is necessary ine as it is an essential part of
enabling such restorative and curative naturopathic applications such as
metabolic typing for vitality and weight management.
Historically,
alternative medicine did not involve the use of testing blood chemistry, as it
was a part of allopathic medicine that required a medical degree. Purist
practitioners considered it to be contrary to the diagnostic traditions of
holism. However, the qualification of the naturopathic doctor to administer
conventional blood work tests, plus additional tests has greatly increased
added to ease of practice. I can imagine that those new to the profession could
hardly fathom practicing without access to these tests today.
Blood Chemistry Profiles in Holism
An obvious conclusion
is that blood chemistry is now essential to a naturopathic doctor’s practice.
It provides accurate insights into the working of a patient’s metabolism as
well any organ dysfunctions that could be resolved with the use of any of our
core modalities. It is important to get
back to the basics and make use of the fundamental theoretical, and practical
study of blood chemistry and what it can reveal about nutrition, hormones and
other health factors that may be impacting the health of any patient.
Furthermore, it is important that interpretations of blood chemistry be taught
in a standardized manner that is inclusive of the study of this as a healing
art in the last century.
