The naturopathic philosophical tenet, Vis Medicatric Naturae, means the body has an innate capability to heal itself. Yes, your body wants to be healthy! I believe with a whole-food based diet, defined as plant-based with occasional high quality meats and fish, you never have to count calories. Elimination is more important than supplementation. Eliminating inflammatory foods and life style habits.
Smart, therapeutic, science-backed supplementation can be beneficial for most cases.
Dr. Nick Edgerton studied Sports Biology, Nutrition and Chemistry at Springfield College where he participated in exercise science research. Dr. Edgerton went on to pursue his interest in natural medicine at the University of Bridgeport where he received a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and a Masters in Acupuncture.
