How has plant-based nutrition improved the quality of care that you are able to deliver?
The foundation of my practice is based on the principle of a whole foods diet. I witness every day the effects of poor nutrition on the human body's disease process. Rather than adding drugs (or even many supplements) I find that by removing the obstacle to cure I am able to help my patients discover their inner health. Sometimes that means removing protein or casein or gluten. It is a process and an education.

We offer chiropractic care, muscular rehab and nutritional counseling. Our nutritional programs cover all aspects of Plant Based nutrition and healing.
How is your health?
I'm very healthy. I've been eating a high nutrient, plant based diet for many years. I don't get sick and I am active and strong all day.
What kind of value do you place on plant-based nutrition?
I place it at the top of the list. Plant based nutrition is the only way to live a long and healthy life. It's how I eat every meal and how I counsel people looking to live their best life.
How do you incorporate plant-based nutrition in your practice?
It's how we structure our weight loss programs. Everyone who comes in is told that focusing their diets around plant foods is a great way to lose weight. Through this weight loss style, people are taught of all the life enhancing aspects of plant based nutrition. This allows them to lose weight and improve their quality of life at the same time.
How has plant-based nutrition improved the quality of care that you are able to deliver?
Well in practice I use my body all day working on people. Plant based nutrition gives me the energy and strength I need to do this job day in and day out. If I "cheat" on this eating style then I don't have the energy to treat patients as well as they deserve. So, for me, this eating style is vital to my practice and my success.
I offer nutrition counseling to patients and clients for a variety of nutrition related concerns including:
*Weight Loss
*Food allergies/intolerances
*Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes
*Autoimmune diseases
*HIV/AIDS
*Cancer
*Sports nutrition
*Healthy cooking styles
How is your health?
I have been following a plant based diet for over 7 years now, and have never experienced such wonderful health. My energy levels are high, I rarely if ever get sick in the winter, and I recover very quickly if I do feel ill. I owe my good health primarily to my diet and cooking habits, and love to share this information with others.
What kind of value do you place on plant-based nutrition?
Research and anecdotal accounts have all touted the benefits of a plant-based diet, and I could not agree more. Plant-based diets aide in reversing heart disease, preventing cancers, and providing the various compounds and nutrients necessary for optimal health.
How do you incorporate plant-based nutrition in your practice?
I always take my client's personal views into account when recommending diet therapy, and would never force a plant-based diet on anyone. However, I always emphasize plant-based foods make up the majority of anyone's diet to maximize the benefits that can be obtained from plant foods. This aids in weight loss, blood sugar control, and increasing immune function in many people.
How has plant-based nutrition improved the quality of care that you are able to deliver?
So many people are looking for health care providers that are knowledgeable of plant based nutrition and have a good opinion of such a diet. The nutrition therapy I provide goes beyond the general basics of vegetarian and vegan nutrition, and delves deeper into the biological and physiologic responses that occur in the body when one consumes a plant based diet to increase the overall health and vitality of a patient or client.
