Nutrition and its benefits
More on MNT
Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is a therapeutic approach to treating medical conditions through the use of individualized nutrition plans. MNT may include nutrition assessment, meal planning, counseling, and ongoing monitoring to support health and manage diseases.
Utilizing medical nutrition therapy services is beneficial because it helps prevent, manage, and treat many health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, high blood pressure, digestive disorders, growth and development through all stages of life, aid in disordered eating recovery and much more. MNT provides personalized evidence based guidance rather than general advice, making it more effective. It can improve overall health outcomes, reduce the need for medications, lower healthcare costs, and enhance quality of life by teaching individuals how to make healthier food choices they can maintain long term.
Four Pillars of Health
The four pillars of health; as you may already be familiar are sleep, exercise, stress management, and nutrition. These are the foundations for practice here at Breathe Health Center.
Food and nutrition are important and part of the four pillars
because they directly impact how the body functions, grows, and heals. Proper nutrition supplies the body with essential nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals that are necessary for energy, immune function, brain development, and overall physical well-being.
Healthy eating supports disease prevention, maintains a healthy weight, strengthens the immune system, improves mental, physical performance and so much more. Without adequate nutrition, the body becomes more vulnerable to illness, fatigue, and chronic disease. Along with physical activity, mental health, and preventive care, nutrition forms a foundation for lifelong health and wellness.
