Nutrition is the best medicine.

Altru Integrated Health in Colorado Springs, Colorado - Energetic Healing

According to research, nutrition has the largest impact on our health and fitness, so understanding food as our most accessible medicine is critical for health improvement.

Of course regular exercise is important, but we now know  that healthy food intake plays an even more important role for how we look and feel. When healthy eating habits become a lifestyle, we are healthier and happier.

Eating right helps us reduce body fat, detox, feel more confident and reduce our risk of illness. Our Registered Nutritionists can coach you into healthy eating habits and lifestyles as a way to improve your overall health. Nutrient-dense foods, or “superfoods,” include lean proteins, healthy carbohydrates, and fats essential to our health. Superfoods are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants relative to the amount of calories that they contain.

Antioxidants are shown to reduce inflammation which is said to be a leading cause of many diseases. For example, the powerful antioxidants in leafy greens and vegetables help protect your cells from potential free radical damage. Some superfoods contain compounds that increase metabolism and encourage more efficient fat burning.
