“PN [Personalized nutrition] is a field with great potential to address chronic disease and optimize human health and performance.”

American Nutrition Association position paper

BioIndividual Nutrition is…

…the science and clinical application of diet and nutrition intervention
customized to the unique needs of an individual.

The principles involve understanding chronic disease, determining bioindividuality, discovering how food affects biochemistry, mastering special diets, customizing nutrition strategy and evolving the diet.

Instead of trying to modify one dietary approach for different individuals, this approach considers dozens of diet strategies and closely examines relationships between symptoms and underlying biological pathways.

BioIndividual Nutrition is a functional nutrition approach that applies to all health conditions…

  • IBS

  • Fatigue

  • Anxiety

  • Autism

  • ADHD

  • Eczema

  • Allergies

  • Digestive Disorders

  • Autoimmune Disorders

  • Neurological Conditions

  • Methylation Issues

  • Mitochondrial Dysfunction

  • Nutrient Deficiency

  • Food Sensitivities

  • Thyroid

  • Diabetes

  • Aging

  • Pain

  • Addiction

  • Pregnancy

  • Depression

Because foods affect chemistry and in turn, the body’s biochemistry influences the foods an individual can tolerate/eat…. Understanding these relationships, identifying hidden connections between symptoms and sources, and knowing which recommendations to make is critical to your success as a practitioner.

Knowing which recommendations to make
is critical to your success as a practitioner.
