What Is Natural Nutrition?

Natural nutrition, or holistic nutrition is about treating a person as a whole and attempting to bring balance by observing dietary intake, supplements and lifestyle. According to the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition:

The properties of natural nutrients are best summed up in these four words: natural, alive, good quality.

Natural, as in unprocessed, unrefined foods, such as whole grains and legumes.
Alive, meaning that it still contains live enzymes, such as fruit, vegetables, and sprouts.
Good quality, meaning grown in soil rich in essential nutrients such as organically grown foods (pesticide free and grown without synthetic fertilizers).


Natural nutrition is an area that can be complimentary to other health care providers, such as family doctors, specialists and naturopathic doctors.
