LIFE & HEALING NUTRITION FOR LIFE AND HEALING. You are what you absorb. “Progressive Medical Center tackled my key reason for my chronic sickness: diet. I could tell the difference within just two weeks, and within several months, I went from chronic fatigue and pain to my old self again. - Trent K A re you going to be eating salads all the time? Nope. Just real food, customized for you. A Google search will reveal as many different food pyramids as there are calories in a Big Mac! Let our team of dietitians take the confusion out of all the nutrition advice out there and create a step-by-step eating plan that is based on your specific health goals and food sensitivity testing. FREE NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING FOR EVERY PATIENT. At Progressive Medical Center, we believe the right nutrition is a powerful key to the healing process. That’s why we have dietitians on staff to serve as a resource for every patient! Their consultations are typically included at the second and third visits, but the dietitians are also available to answer dietary questions and coach patients through their nutrition programs. Normally, a dietitian’s services range from $90 to $150 for an initial consultation and then anywhere from $45 to $90 for follow-up sessions. Our nutrition counseling is FREE to you as our patient! It is so important to us that you incorporate a customized nutrition plan into your program here that we have included this service at no extra charge. THREE BASIC NUTRITIONAL CONCEPTS: #1 Every person is a unique INDIVIDUAL A particular food that may be healthy for one person may not be for another. While there are general nutrition “laws” that promote health, there is no “one- size fits all” dietary recommendation. #2 If it comes from a plant, EAT it. If it was made in a plant, DON’T. Real, whole food brings real function and healing. From Michael Pollan’s Food Rules #3 Good Nutrition brings FREEDOM. If food controls you (food addictions, eating disorders, or even obsession over eating the perfect diet), then food has become too important! Don’t let food become a source of stress! CUSTOMIZED NUTRITION. TARGETED RESULTS Detox. SIBO. Weight loss. Cancer. Diabetes. Whatever the condition, food offers a solution. Our dietitians help discover your specific food sensitivities (you may be surprised) and create an eating plan to avoid and heal them! They can navigate through a low FODMAP diet for SIBO; coach the cancer patient through the healing ketogenic approach. Our dietitians partner with you throughout your patient process to assist with any food- and diet-related concerns unique to you! “LET FOOD BE THY MEDICINE.” – HIPPOCRATES Food has not always been this complicated, invoking such sophisticated research and study. But it’s become that. Why? Because what was designed for our nourishment has been ignored and replaced for financial profit and convenience. Food is no longer food— it’s a product. In order to promote that product, fancy labels, synthetic nutrients, additives, impressive scientific studies, and marketing hype are all required to build and maintain this fake food empire. And we’re reaping the health consequences of this as a nation, generation by generation.
