Nutrition and Supplements

Nutrition

Nutrition plays a very important role in the anti-aging process and is also essential in the overall balance of your hormones. Bad nutrition accelerates aging in humans, so by relaying proper education to our patients, we empower them to make good nutrition decisions. At Preventative Aging & Wellness Institute we will examine your current diet and implement a thorough nutrition plan. We will provide simple steps that, when applied, will make your diet transition very easy to follow by emphasizing education and constant work on food consumption. The most important factor is moderation. Over-eating is the largest issue, whether you are on a particular diet or not. Instead of crash dieting, reduce certain foods from your permanent diet. Avoid the “bad” carbohydrates and trans-fatty acids whenever possible. Reduce the amount of saturated fats and increase the omega-3 fatty acids. The nutritionists at Preventative Aging and Wellness Institute will break down each food group and explain in depth how the calories we get from food either come from protein, carbohydrates, or fats and then apply that information to your specific diet. We also educate our patients on “organic” vs “non-organic” foods and what is important to know when shopping at grocery stores to ensure you buy quality foods. Good nutrition is a vital component to weight loss and will help preserve hormonal balance.

Supplements

Along with good nutrition, pharmaceutical grade supplements are key elements in the balancing of hormones. Your body needs vitamins and minerals to perform every day bodily functions, from converting food into energy to carrying oxygen through your bloodstream. The supplements are not meant to replace a healthy diet, but are used to support that diet. In our world today, a high percentage of the available foods we buy are processed (not pure) and injected with hormones, so it is even more important that we add supplements to our diet for overall balance. Preventative Aging & Wellness Institute only uses pharmaceutical grade supplements that are 99% pure, which provide our patients with the very best in quality, guaranteed. We have access to over 70 top quality manufacturers that will ship the products directly to your home or business. You may order through us for simplicity and to ensure accuracy.
