Naturopathic Doctors are trained in clinical nutrition – which is an understanding of how foods (and the nutrients that they contain) affect health and disease. This understanding is aimed at ensuring a healthy energy balance, as well as providing adequate intake of protein, fat, carbs, vitamins and minerals.

At AWH our clinicians have expanded their view of nutrition to incorporate not only a general understanding of how food interacts with the body, but of what foods will work best with you! We customize nutrition plans based on the results of Core Labs, Functional Testing and personal genetics. This provides superior results for autoimmune disease, thyroid health, hormone balance, preconception, pregnancy, weight loss, digestion, proactive health goals and much more. 

No, not everyone who walks into our office will go on a gluten-free, dairy-free, air diet! But if you do need that then at least you will understand why!

Meal Planning Services

Customized meal plans are a great option to help you prep healthy meals based on your particular health needs. Meal plans can also serve as inspiration or as a general meal guide. The plan will include recipes customized to the condition you are dealing with (e.g. PCOS, Hashimoto’s, endometriosis, fertility, etc.). The meal plan will include options for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. 

To purchase a meal plan, please indicate which option you would like. The plan will be created based on a short questionnaire regarding your health needs and any allergies/restrictions you might have.
