SOME FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW CAN NUTRIIONAL MEDICINE HELP ME?
Nutritional Medicine uses nutrition/diet, nutritional supplements, life style coaching, and functional pathology testing, all tailored to meet individual patient needs for long term solutions. Nutrition can effectively be used together with many different types of treatments and health care practitioners such as GPs. Often the solution is for different therapies to complement each other and work together. This can be a very powerful treatment option for you. Please bring copies of recent blood tests to your consultation. With regards to prescription medication, there are various dietary and supplementary options for you that won’t interfere with these medications.

A UNIQUE NUTRITION PLAN FOR YOU
During the initial consultation, Marion will assess your health status and nutritional requirements by asking questions about your medical history as well as family medical history. Other questions will be tailored depending on which system of the body is affected. A specific treatment plan will be developed in order to improve your health and priorities treatment options. Food and supplements, such as, vitamins, minerals and enzymes may be prescribed in therapeutic doses. Foods are used as much as possible, but supplements are sometimes added as an effective treatment option. The aim is to support the body to do what it does best - restore balance. Depending on your condition we will meet regularly to monitor change and growth and work together to deepen your understanding of your own health and body.
The effects of seeing a nutritionist will be well worth it.
