A bit of stress itself is not necessarily a bad thing, but how we deal with chronic stress can end up being responsible for a multitude of symptoms and diseases. Stress can suppress immune function, affect hormonal responses, and create an imbalance in the chemical reactions in our body which influence the functioning of our heart, liver, kidneys, brain, and digestive tract.

Stress may lead to headaches, backaches, infection, hypertension, fluctuations in blood sugar levels, ulcers, heart disease, indigestion, gastritis, heartburn, and cancer.

Chronic stress has a powerful ability to deplete our bodies of important vitamins and minerals that are needed to keep us strong and healthy. Our diet is critical in helping us to cope under pressure and in reducing the negative impact that stress can have on our health.

We will discuss your stress level at your initial consultation then design a program that is specifically suited for you that incorporates both nutritional and lifestyle modifications.
