Nutritional Evaluation & Counseling

Since the start of the Industrial Revolution, new farming practices plus thousands of food manufacturing and processing procedures have been introduced. This has caused major nutritional impacts upon our daily food sources.

Millions of Americans are suffering everyday, not finding the answer to their chronic health problems. Drug companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars annually in advertising, trying to convince the viewing public to treat its symptoms with their new "Purple Pill" or other miracle medication. This is very sad. These so-called miracle medications simply alter bodily functions. They do not build up the stores of whole nutrients necessary to maintain the body's health or it's life energy forces. Medications usually only mask the symptoms, while the condition resulting from a biochemical imbalance continues and the disease process works deeper into the body's system.

Typically most people simply need the right whole food nutrients restored to their daily diets containing the necessary combination of vitamins and minerals. When combined with occasional professional chiropractic adjustments to spinal nerve corridors to insure proper nerve communications from the master control system of the brain to the various organs of the human body, the human body has all of the essential components to function optimally when modest exercise is added.

However there is little financial motivation for drug companies to provide or promote these simple and proven solutions when there is little profit available to fill the mega-coffers of their stockholders or executives.

In fact according the recent statistics, medical costs are expected to double. Looking at these astonishing figures, the fact that every second person in the U.S. is chronically ill should come as no surprise. Examples of chronic conditions are cancer, heart disease, diabetes, glaucoma, etc. By 2020, the number of people living with chronic conditions is expected to rise to 157 million and direct medical costs are expected to double to more than $1 trillion (80 percent of the nation's health care spending).

When combined with our toxic environment, it becomes a deadly combination that leaves the human body in a perilous position unable to maintain its rejuvenative properties as designed by its Creator.

Since 1975, we have followed several nutritional protocols that maximize the body's natural bio-balances for optimum health. A balanced body chemistry means that all of the bodily functions are balanced. Healing will be rapid, sleep will be deep and restful and digestion will be proper and elimination complete. Body balance, hearing, vision will all function properly. A balanced body chemistry also assists in normal hormonal function and helps maintain the youthful vigor. Appetite will be moderate and consumption will be based on need rather than unnatural compulsions.

These methods not only provide optimum detoxification, but also provide exceptional nutritional benefits that restore human life energy.

We begin this a proven nutritional protocol prior to any dental modification procedure. The use of vitamin supplements that are made of real food greatly helps the process more than any thing else we have evaluated over the years.

At DeFelice Family Dentistry we use mostly Standard Process ® whole food supplements. We also provide each patient with proven dietary recommendations that, if followed, will improve our patients health and increase their vitality.
