Confused about what to eat and what vitamins to take? With so many food choices and supplements available we often are misguided by false advertising and dubious food labels. Our professional services can help you understand what you should be looking for in the food and supplements you consume in order to obtain optimal health.

Nutrients provide the foundation of a healthy body. Without all the proper nutrients the body will inevitably deteriorate over time leading to symptoms such as weight gain, fatigue, pain and eventually disease. By this time we must often rely on medication and surgery for damage control. Our hope is that you will consume the proper nutrients before this happens.

There are little to no nutrients contained in the refined and processed foods that most American’s eat.  In fact, many of these junk foods contain additives that prevent absorption of the actual nutrients we do consume.  Additionally, the depletion of nutrients in our soil over the past 40 years has caused the quality of our food supply to rapidly diminish. For example, you would have to eat 10 bananas in order to achieve the daily Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for potassium.  As you can see it is very difficult to obtain all the necessary nutrients needed daily. This is where proper food choices and whole food supplementation becomes crucial.

Dr. Harris will take time to go over your complete health history, review your systems, incorporate family history, and analyze your diet for content and nutrition to ensure you and your family are getting all the nutrients needed for a lifetime of health.
