looking for case study…

Do you know Martine??

Martine started her studies at the University of Moncton in pre-med. While still at University she decided to volunteer at the hospital to see what kind of environment was waiting for her. After being surrounded by sick people and unhappy staff, she quickly changed her career path and went to college to study Industrial Engineering. While working in the construction field for a few years, she started experiencing several health issues. After many frustrating visits to the doctor’s office, she decided to take matters into her own hands.  In her search for answers, she not only healed herself she also discovered her true passion for nutrition and fitness.

Martine is currently studying at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition to become a Registered Holistic Nutritionist.

What is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist?

A Holistic Nutritionist is someone who uses food as a means for preventing disease and ensuring the body is receiving enough nutrients in order heal itself. Holistic Nutrition bases itself around the principles of allowing food be your medicine. This is achieved through a diet rich in natural whole foods, supplementation, and lifestyle changes. Physical disease also has a related emotional, psychological and/or spiritual link.

Mainstream medicine rarely considers that poor nutrition is a major contributor to a wide range of health issues.  Most of us are aware that sound nutrition has many benefits for our health and well-being, however the volume and range of conflicting information in the media is often overwhelming and confusing.

Our body has a tremendous ability to heal itself and Holistic Nutrition gives the body the food and energy it needs to attain and maintain optimal health.

Fitness in a 100 words:

■ Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. ■ Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. ■ Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. ■ Regularly learn and play new sports.
