Medical Nutrition

Here at Wiseman Family Practice we believe it is important to be at the forefront of medical nutrition to fight and prevent disease. We believe that many pharmaceutical medications can be replaced with safer nutraceutical options. We also believe that the increasing amount of toxins in our food, water, and environment are the root cause of many of the disease processes we are seeing today. To address this, we focus on prevention and when necessary use effective, safer, and more natural therapies that address the core of the problem, which are an alternative to many of the toxic pharmaceutical options given by traditional medicine today. Our goal is simple – identify the root cause of the problem, eliminate it, and allow the body to naturally heal. In many cases we augment this healing process through various supplements, herbs, and nutraceuticals that are effective and natural.

With an increasing number of disease processes being caused by being overweight, we believe that proper nutritional and dietary counseling is paramount to maintaining one’s optimal weight and thus one’s total internal wellness. Our dietary philosophy is centered around “real” food choices – organic, non-processed food that is sustainable for both the individual and the environment. When food is approached this way, most “diets” become obsolete and patients understand the meaning of true health and energy.

To help navigate the fundamentals of medical nutrition and to help implement dietary and lifestyle changes, we offer our holistic health coaching program, tailored to each person’s unique needs and circumstances. Our certified holistic health coach, Nancy Tilelli, CHHC, has over 10 years of experience in health and wellness coaching. She specializes in lifestyle-related illness and prevention, stress management, nutrition, weight loss, anti-aging, and personalized programs to meet individual needs. Visit our Health Coaching page to learn more about the benefits of holistic health coaching.
