Nutritional Counseling

You Are What You Eat!

Nutrition is not just a matter of counting calories or measuring your servings. Healthy nutrition is a lifestyle. Here at MediCenter, we firmly believe that nutrition plays an imperative role in preventing and curing health and disease. We each have a different set of genes that might be triggered by our individual environments. It is through nutrition that we can control the majority of whether or not that gene gets turned on or off. Healthy nutrition includes a wide variety of wholefoods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes and quality-sourced protein
