Nutritional Counseling

What does nutrition have to do with chronic disease? The goal of functional medicine is to help clients achieve total health and balance with their body, and as part of that goal, we provide specific recommendations on what your body needs to not express the disease.

Do you know what foods are actually good for you according to your genetic code? At our office in the Kansas City area, we can provide each client with a structured nutritional program that is based on their individual needs. We are also proud to offer nutritional IV therapy in Kansas City, MO as well.

Nearly every condition can benefit from proper nutritional intake. However, some of the most common conditions we can help improve using nutritional counseling include:

• Obesity
• Diabetes
• High Cholesterol
• Hypothyroidism
• Fibromyalgia

Dr. Goodbinder can perform nutritional counseling sessions in person in our Kansas City area office or remotely. Having remote flexibility is important this day in age, and we are prepared to help you, no matter where you are located on the planet.

This is one of the most common questions asked regarding nutritional counseling. While nutritional counseling can, and will, help you lose weight, it is not the main goal. The main objective of nutritional counseling is to teach you how to biochemically make it easier to not eat food that will harm you and that will set you up to live a long and healthy life.

What you put into your body is your fuel. If you have a poor diet, it can harm your body. With nutritional counseling, you can learn what foods you need to incorporate into your diet to fortify your immune system and build a healthy body.

Many variables contribute to how long you will participate in a nutritional counseling program in Kansas City. These variables included your current state of health, any diseases or deficiencies you may have, and your goals. All of these will decide how many sessions with a nutritional counselor you will need to set yourself up for success in the future.
