KINESIOLOGY
While I love nutritional medicine and naturopathy, kinesiology is my passion. Rather than assuming that someone who has a particular diagnosis, say type 2 diabetes, needs magnesium or Berberine to help balance their blood glucose levels, kinesiology gives me the ability to ASK the body exactly what it needs. That way we can keep supplements to a minimum, and really target the nutritional and lifestyle changes to the client. This increases compliance, and gives the client a sense of connection with their body - something most of us are severely lacking, these days.
In the case of a recent client with type 2 diabetes, who needs to keep things simple for compliance reasons, his body told me it needed a really good quality multi-vitamin and mineral (that way we cover all bases with B vitamins, and essential micro nutrients), magnesium in glycinate form for blood glucose balance, and vitamin D3 with K2 for immune support. And priority nutritional changes were around ensuring that he gets at least a palm-sized serving of good quality protein at every meal, with some fibre and healthy fats, minimise processed carbohydrates as much as possible, and avoid seed oils and artificial sweeteners. Pretty simple, and he's happy to follow that prescription.
Kinesiology is the bomb 👊
