Nutritional Counseling

How does nutrition impact my overall health?

The foods and beverages that you consume directly impact your energy levels, ability to focus, and health in general. America faces an obesity epidemic that’s partially fueled by eating foods that are high in sugar and saturated fats. 

If you don’t get the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients your body needs to function, you’re more likely to gain weight and experience other chronic health issues. For instance, you might develop high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes.  

To achieve good overall health, experts recommend eating a healthy, well-balanced diet that’s rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. 

What is nutritional counseling with Simplex Health?

Simplex Health is a patient-centered nutritional counseling program focused on preventing and resolving certain health conditions. When you schedule a Simplex Health appointment at Woudsma Chiropractic Associates, you meet one-on-one with a trained and certified Simplex Health dietician. 

Simplex Health dieticians use nutritional education and healthy eating to help patients:

• Lose weight
• Combat chronic disease
• Relieve symptoms
• Improve health

Simplex Health nutritional counseling can also help lower your risk of problems in the future. For example, if high blood pressure runs in your family, your dietician can formulate a heart-healthy diet.

Following an in-office consultation, review of your medical history, and discussion of your goals for treatment, your dietician formulates a nutritional plan that aligns with your needs.

What are the benefits of nutritional counseling with Simplex Health?

Simplex Health is much more than a weight-loss program. It focuses on four aspects, in particular: 

Disease-prevention strategies

If all you eat is fast food and TV dinners, you’re putting your body at risk. Simplex Health medically supervised nutritional counseling works to improve your well-being through healthy, nutritious eating. Nutritional counseling also includes exercise recommendations and tips for lowering stress and improving your overall quality of life.

Reversal of chronic disease

Did you know that it’s possible to reverse chronic ailments like Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure? When these concerns are detected early on, healthy eating can keep your blood sugar levels in check and promote cardiovascular health.  

Education and food intelligence

We all know that fruits and vegetables are healthy, but why? Simplex Health medically supervised nutritional counseling educates and informs. Your dietician doesn’t just make recommendations; they explain why their recommendations matter and how they impact your health. 

Living a healthy lifestyle is a lifelong process. Simplex Health nutritional counseling takes a functional medicine approach to weight loss, chronic disease management, and improved quality of life.
