Nutritional therapy practitioners use a wide range of tools to assess and identify potential nutritional imbalances and understand how these may contribute to an individual&#8217;s symptoms and health concerns. This approach allows them to work with individuals to address nutritional balance and help support the body towards maintaining health. Nutritional therapy is recognised as a complementary medicine and is relevant for individuals with chronic conditions, as well as those looking for support to enhance their health and wellbeing. <\/p>\n<p>Practitioners consider each individual to be unique and recommend personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes rather than a &#8216;one size fits all&#8217; approach. Practitioners never recommend nutritional therapy as a replacement for medical advice and always refer any client with &#8216;red flag&#8217; signs or symptoms to their medical professional. They will also frequently work alongside a medical professional and will communicate with other healthcare professionals involved in the client&#8217;s care to explain any nutritional therapy programme that has been provided.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-209483 kc_col-sm-4 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-856399 kc-animated kc-animate-eff-fadeInRight kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rebeccawarren.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/nutritional-therapy.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"Nutritional Therapy\" \/>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-832042\" style=\"height: 40px; clear: both; width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-768807 kc_row kc_row_inner\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-903966 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-939275 kc-animated kc-animate-eff-fadeIn kc_text_block\"><\/p>\n<h2>HOW IS NUTRITIONAL THERAPY REGULATED?<\/h2>\n<p>Before seeing a Nutritional Therapist, you should confirm that they have full membership with the British Association for Applied Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and are registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). BANT is the professional body for Nutritional Therapists. Its primary function is to assist its members in attaining the highest standards of integrity, knowledge, competence and professional practice, in order to protect the client\u2019s interests, nutritional therapy and the nutritional therapist.<\/p>\n<p>The CNHC is the UK regulator for complementary healthcare practitioners. Sponsored by the Department of Health, the CNHC\u2019s key role is to enhance public protection by setting standards for registration and ensuring that all registered practitioners meet the relevant National Occupational Standards.<\/p>\n<p>In November 2009 the Department of Health stated: \u201cCNHC is the only voluntary regulatory body for complementary healthcare which has official government backing. No other organisation has the same exacting criteria or focus on safety and quality.\u201d Nutritional Therapists must meet the CNHC\u2019s standards and maintain their professional skills through an ongoing programme of Continuing Professional Development in order to display the CNHC quality mark<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-453513\" style=\"height: 40px; clear: both; width:100%;\"><\/div><div id=\"functional-medicine\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-880934 kc_row kc_row_inner\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-4114 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-724098 kc-animated kc-animate-eff-fadeIn kc_text_block\"><\/p>\n<h2>WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE?<\/h2>\n<p>Functional Medicine is a systems-biology based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individuals ill health. A personalised approach to health care that establishes an individuals personal requirements by identifying and addressing the underlying cause of the problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patient centred<\/strong> \u2013 programs are individual, based on client needs which take into account genetic, internal and external factors.<br \/><strong>Preventative<\/strong> \u2013 testing and programmes are designed around the client to promote optimal health; to prevent poor health and to improve quality of life<br \/><strong>Integrative<\/strong> \u2013 working with laboratories, consultants, doctors and alternative therapists (chiropractors, physiotherapists, psychologists etc) to encourage prevention through nutrition, exercise and lifestyle.<br \/><strong>Investigative<\/strong> \u2013 time is taken with all clients to determine the complex web of interactions within their history, physiology and lifestyle that may have lead to their current condition.
