Nutrition and Chinese Dietetics
We have all heard the old saying ‘Let food be thy medicine’ and it’s as true now as its ever been.
With an abundance of food options to choose from, so much of our food today is filled with toxic hormones, antibiotics, agents, preservatives and chemicals. As these synthetic products build up over time they can be incredibly detrimental to our health.
At Acupuncture Alchemy we take the hard part out of trying to know what is good for you and what is not by developing individualised nutritional strategies (deceptive marketing can makes things so confusing).
Our constitution also determines which foods are energetically most nourishing for us and which foods need to be avoided. For example, someone who is always cold, has loose bowels, no appetite and feels constantly exhausted would be wise to avoid frozen drinks, cold water, raw salads. These foods would weaken this persons already fragile condition.
We also have very different nutritional needs at different life phases. Pregnancy, postpartum and breastfeeding are vital phases where optimal nutrition is imperative to a mothers and her baby’s health and wellness.
