DIET THERAPY

One of the most commonly asked questions by patients is, "What should I be eating to get well and stay healthy?" Diet therapy is the therapeutic use of foods and food plans to treat a medical condition and assist the body in achieving better health.

Modern research has shown that certain diets and eating habits may cause or benefit a variety of diseases. Most people are aware of "Low Saturated Fat Diets" for high cholesterol conditions or "Low Carbohydrate / Sugar Diets" for the treatment of diabetes.

At KNC, individualized diet programs are prescribed for the specific need of the patient. Some examples include Food Allergy/Elimination, Fasting, Low Carbohydrate/High Protein, Food Combining, Blood Type, Metabolic Typing and Vegetarian Based Diets. Diet therapy is a core principle at KNC and we believe in the old saying, "You are what you eat".
