SERVICESWe can help create the constellation of treatment that is personalized for you so that your time with us can be a part of your journey to become whole.
Life enhancing movement and nutrition for well-being are essential to a healthy mind. We can guide you to make lifestyle changes that optimize your mental and physical health, regardless of size.
NUTRITIONAL PSYCHIATRYOne component of mental health is nutrition. It gives us the building blocks for key neurotransmitters in our brains needed for our mental health. Serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, glutamate and GABA are all neurotransmitters we need to function well. Nutrition can also decrease (or increase) our body’s level of inflammation, and inflammation can be a key component in our mood and cognitive function as well.
HEALTH AT EVERY SIZEAddressing nutritional and physical lifestyle changes can often be interpreted as dieting for the sake of weight loss. At MBLDN we celebrate health at every size. We do not promote dieting or exercise to obtain a specific weight or appearance. Instead we focus on life-enhancing nutrition and movement.
OUR SERVICES
Broad Spectrum Micronutrients
Broad spectrum micronutrients (BSM) have been widely studied for their improvement in cognitive functioning and emotional regulation. Companies including TrueHope and Hardy Nutritionals have studied BSM with a variety of mental health and have seen improvements. BSM provide many of the essential nutrients you need for optimal mental and physical health. Dosing for mental health is personal and depends on your response and medication regimen. We can work with you to find the right fit.
Supplements
Certain supplements provide targeted support for your mental health. By finding which supplements may suit your conditions, we can help you reach your emboldened life.
Nutrition Changes
Many of the nutrients we need are in the foods we eat (or don’t eat). By eating mindfully and eating a variety of whole foods, you can optimize your mental health.
The typical American diet is filled with processed foods and limited nutritional content. By making little adjustments at a time, you reduce inflammation and improve your overall nutritional health.
Health at Every Size
Changing our nutrition can be difficult, but we can help you make manageable changes, one step at a time, to reach nutrition goals that work for you.
