Why use dietary therapy?

In my experience, addressing dietary issues with patients can dramatically improve clinical results, and also involves the patient much more in their own healing. In some cases this can lead to a lifelong improvement in health and well-being and a new found relationship with food. It behoves us as holistic healthcare practitioners to encourage and empower our patients in this way, and also to use all the tools at our disposal to aid the healing process. Dietary therapy is an ideal way of doing this.
