Who are Nutrition Associates?

NUTRITION ASSOCIATES offer a unique and effective approach to the treatment of persistent health problems. Many illnesses have their root in poor nutrition, allergies, metabolic problems, chronic infections or even sunlight deficiency. When the body's defences are exhausted, disease can take a hold.

We offer medical advice and treatments based on nutrition and allergy principles. We hold regular clinics in London, Edinburgh,York and Windsor. This is not alternative medicine - what we do is based on scientific principles. Nor is it orthodox medicine - we believe that most medical drugs are powerful, but can have powerful side-effects, and should be treated with respect. We believe in working with the body as much as possible, by supporting and stimulating the body's own ways of combatting disease.

What is Nutritional Medicine?

Nutritional Medicine includes the diagnosis and treatment of:

food allergy, food intolerance and other sensitivities
environmental sensitivities and toxicities
vitamin, mineral, fatty acid and other deficiencies
chronic hyperventilation
disorders of the digestion and bowel function
fungal and parasitic disorders of the bowel
immune system dysfunctions
developmental, behavioural and learning disorders
endocrine imbalances
musculo-skeletal problems

At Nutrition Associates we aim to work with the patient, to help him or her to manage the resources he/she has, while gradually building them up. We use nutritional therapy (oral and parenteral), diets, desensitisation and drug therapy, where necessary , to stimulate and improve the body's natural defences against disease. We also aim to work alongside conventional medicine in co-operation with the patient's General Practitioner.

Our approach to clinical medicine is based on two fundamental approaches. The aim of our treatment is to give the body what it needs to heal itself, so nutritional methods - and bioenergetic techniques such as acupuncture and homeopathy, when effective - are preferred to drugs or surgery.

The most important thing we can do for patients is to give them back control of their own bodies. The key to this is information - understanding of what is wrong with them. We believe that patient and therapists should cooperate in learning about the illness, and discovering all the factors which influence it.
