DIET & NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING

Picture
‘You are what you eat’ - just as the saying goes, your diet plays a significant role in your health. Nutritional guidance and/or vitamin-mineral supplementation is addressed at every patient visit as it can benefit any health condition by providing the proper nutrients your body needs to facilitate healing, strengthening, or detoxification. 

Individualized nutritional support can also be provided for the following:
- Vegetarian / vegan diets                                   - Food sensitivities (food sensitivity testing is also available)                          
- High cholesterol                                               - Skin conditions (eczema, psoriasis, etc.)  
- High blood pressure                                         - Irritable bowel sundrome
- Diabetes                                                           - Pre & post operation support 
- Metabolic syndrome                                         - Chemotherapy support
- Weight loss / management                              - Radiation support
- Detoxification                                                  - Prevention & supportive treatment of breast, prostate, colon cancer

Dr. Chow corrects nutritional deficiencies by:
- Determining your body's individual specific vitamin and mineral needs. Nutrient testing measures over 30 vitamins, minerals, and  
  antioxidants and determines how much of each nutrient your body's cells need to function optimally. 

- Optimizing digestion. A healthy diet is only healthful if you can absorb what you eat. 

- Using intravenous therapy. Certain health conditions, such as Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel disease, bowel resection, gastric bypass surgery, and chronic fatigue syndrome result in the inability to adequately absorb nutrients from food. Intravenous therapy by-passes the gastrointestinal tract and provides vitamins and minerals immediately to the bloodstream.
