The Five Pillars of Health

Truth be told, most of us love food. 

Food has purpose.

It is to heal and repair out bodies and to sustain life.  

Using food as medicine is a deeply personal journey. 

It is one of the most overlooked interventions especially in the realm of mental health.

We all know that to be healthy we need to nourish our bodies, but when we get depressed, anxious, can't sleep we go for what is easy and momentarily eat what is fast and sedating, only to wake up feeling even more miserable and sick. 

 To make matters worse, many of the medications used  in psychiatry have what we call metabolic side effects which includes, weight gain, increased appetite, higher risk of diabetes and high cholesterol just to name a few. 

The stimulating medications make us crave sugar and we are wired! 

We are here to give you the BEST CARE Possible.

 

The Five Pillars of Health Q & A

There is a system that we use for optimal results which is called the Five Pillars of Health which  are Food as Medicine, Detoxification, Movement, Mental Health and Mentoring. 

Most people have done maybe two or three of these interventions and were met with failure, time and time again. This uses five steps to acheive skills for you to take control of your own health that last a lifetime. 

1) Food as medicine. You will learn by actually doing it, explore what foods are healthy for you.

2)Reset the body via nutrition. A process to reset your body in a safe, nourishing way. No starvation required. 

3)Movement. We all know we have to exercise, but you explore what is good for you and we get you to feeling better so that movement can actually be realistic. 

4)Mental Health. This process assists with deprescribing in a safe way to give your body what it needs and to prevent/reduce withdrawal symptoms. 

5)Mentoring. The most overlooked pillar. You will have people to assist you along your way with your personal challenges and cheer you on your victories and milestones 

This is a system for people who want to take their health to the next level and are willing to take accountability of their health.  They are sick and tired of being sick and tired. They want to thrive instead of survive and are willing to do the work involved. This is not a quick fix but a system for lasting health. 

You can live better and feel better.
