Gastrointestinal Disorders

Many people suffer from gastrointestinal disorders that can be treated successfully using non-pharmaceutical and natural products as well as diet modification. Using medical food that is formulated to provide specialized macro-and micronutrient support for patients challenged by compromised gut function with digestive disorders including malabsorption. We work to formulate an eating plan that excludes common food allergens and supports healthy gut function.

Most Common GI problems:
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
Colitis
Malabsorption and Digestive problems
Crohn’s Disease
Constipation

Gastrointestinal Health disorders can be successfully treated with nutritional products and “medical” food using our 5R GI Restoration Program. Remove food sensitivities from the diet, replace digestive enzymes, reinoculate the GI tract with probiotics, regnerate GI mucosa through diet and retain health and function with nutritional support.

Musculoskeletal Healing

Many people who suffer from acute and chronic pain do not take advantage of using nutritional products designed to reduce pain and inflammation and speed the recovery of healing. We offer a nutritional and supplemental plan to best suit your injury and stage of healing you are at.

The phases of healing include inflammation, proliferation and remodeling. While most of us are not well versed in the musculoskeletal changes that occur during these phases, it is important to understand how nutrition can influence the healing process.

Inflammation Phase: In the inflammatory phase our goal is to control inflammation and prevent excess inflammation. Excess inflammation will impair blood flow and potentially cause cell damage to the healthy tissue around the injury. During the inflammatory phase, we can take control of inflammation with dietary fats. Dietary fats protect against inflammation because they signal the movement of blood flow and promote the function of immunity cells. Fruits and vegetables will also aid in controlling the inflammatory process because they are rich in antioxidants. While increasing these foods in your diet are helpful most of the times it may not be enough and additional supplemental is necessary.

Proliferation and Remodeling: Our goal now is to prevent atrophy and promote soft tissue repair for return to function. Patients will experience muscle disuse atrophy during these phases. Musculoskeletal injuries are often accompanied by anabolic resistance, which is the reduced ability of the muscle to synthesize protein. We have products that assist with these phases of healing that help patients heal faster and more efficiently to their maximum potential.
