SUPPLEMENT COUNSELLING
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the number of supplements you are taking? Are you confused if all the supplements you are taking are working for you? If this sounds like you, our supplement counselling session with our naturopathic doctor may be an excellent choice for you.
Although most vitamin and mineral supplements won’t cause harm when taken individually in moderation, combining multiple supplements or taking higher than recommended doses can actually cause more harm than benefit. Our naturopathic doctor will take time to assess your overall health condition and go through the list of supplements and medications you are taking. She will make clinical judgements based on your individual health condition and may take out unnecessary supplements and may introduce new high-quality, professional-grade supplements and a dietary recommendation that will fulfill your nutritional needs. At the end of your visit, you will have a clearer understanding of your health with a more organized and personalized supplement regimen tailored just for you.
