Back pain? Joint pain? Sore muscles?
November 1, 2017 by
Nutritional Therapy is a safe, effective alternative to taking painkillers long term.
Specific foods and nutrients have an anti-inflammatory and pain killing effect. Adjusting your diet and taking the right supplements may help to manage pain and inflammation and reduce the need for painkillers, many of which cause side effects such as skin rashes, kidney damage and inflammation to the gut.
Did you know?…..
Some painkillers can accelerate the damage to joints in people with arthritis. Certain nutritional supplements have been shown to be as good as common painkillers, without the side effects.
Food Intolerance?
November 1, 2017 by
Digestive symptoms, skin problems, low energy, joint pain …… can all be the result of food intolerance.
Testing for food intolerance or allergy is available through Core Nutrition. An initial consultation will be conducted to check symptoms and advise upon the correct test. At the follow-up consultation results will be given along with a protocol for dietary changes and supplementation.
Testing also available for:
– hormone imbalances
– low thyroid
– candida / intestinal parasites
– cardiovascular profile
– adrenal stress
