By nontraditional we are referring to substances other than fats, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Phytonutrients outnumber traditional nutrients by about 10,000 to 1 and account for all the wonderful qualities we associate with food. Particularly the color, flavor and scent.

This hormone-like substance plays both a vital and detrimental role in our health. There is no nutritional substance which is as controversial as cholesterol and, unfortunately, can strike terror in the minds of people who have been misinformed . There is one thing which we must keep in mind. The more excess calories we consume –especially from simple sugars, sat fats and other non-essential fats – AND the more stress we are under, the more cholesterol our body makes. The correlation with stress is borne out of the fact that cholesterol is the precursor of stress hormones.

When we understand that confidence, accountability, and assertiveness play vital roles in developing an empowering perspective then the universe lays out unlimited opportunities that expand our consciousness based on our ability to experience the joys of living. The foundation for moving towards our highest potential is based on several factors that great coaches like us can perceive, work with, and navigate through a client’s self sabotaging behaviours (that we even have ourselves).

Science has taken our food, our bodies and even our lifestyles and divided them into parts. Many conclusions have been created from this, but is that the way to study who we are and what we need? Holistic Nutrition focuses on all aspects of our lives, the food we eat, the homes we live in, our emotional and spiritual health and the physical activities we engage in. The goals are to address all issues that may be affecting our well-being. This includes looking at all aspects of our bodies, the specific foods we eat, including how they are grown and how they are prepared, and the choices we make for work and play.
