Nutrition – A Catalyst For Change From The Inside Out, December 2007    
Health improvements cannot be complete without addressing nutrition. The health of your
body -  tissues, bones, blood, and the function of every cell - is directly affected by your
diet. Foods directly impact your energy level, moods, hormone production and much more.
Learn how a healthier ‘food pyramid guide’ and the right food choices can quickly improve
how you feel and function and make you more productive. We will talk about the
importance of food quality and discuss adverse effects of unhealthy choices. We will also
touch upon toxins and the practice of detoxification – a powerful tool to recharge and
‘renew’ yourself.

Guest Speaker, Karin Dietrich, CNTC, a nutrition therapist, practices a holistic approach
in ‘using foods as medicine’ with her clients. She believes that diet, environment, and
lifestyle changes in the 20th century have affected all age groups of our society with
health issues and chronic diseases that modern medicine has difficulty treating
successfully. When coaching clients, she always takes into account that we are all
biochemically unique and therefore dietary and nutritional needs are highly individual.
Karin has been working in multiple settings, from health clubs to alternative and medical
clinics.
