Each body has its own specific needs. The advice of the orthomolecular therapist is therefore fully tailored to your physical condition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-uagb-columns uagb-columns__wrap uagb-columns__background-none uagb-columns__stack-mobile uagb-columns__valign-center uagb-columns__gap-30 align uagb-block-e1d6ae91 uagb-columns__columns-2 uagb-columns__max_width-theme\"><div class=\"uagb-columns__overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"uagb-columns__inner-wrap uagb-columns__columns-2\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-color uagb-block-836fade8\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-we-are-all-to-a-greater-or-lesser-extent-malnourished\">We are all, to a greater or lesser extent, malnourished<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The &ldquo;fuel&rdquo; we get our energy from often consists of lean food. Often we also don&rsquo;t know what to choose from the huge choices available to use at the supermarket often focusing on sweet and salty taste sensations. These foods are &nbsp;easy, pre-cooked and fast, but is this &lsquo;food&rsquo; capable of providing us with the necessary nutrients in addition to fuel? The combination of depleted agricultural land and added pesticides is destructive in addition to processing in factories. So we are all, to a greater or lesser extent, malnourished. Not quantitatively, but qualitatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-supplementing-deficiencies\">Supplementing deficiencies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Research shows that even&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/en\/orthomolecular-health-articles\/\"><strong>small deficiencies of specific nutrients can play a role in the development of a wide variety of health issues<\/strong><\/a>, such as fatigue, gastrointestinal issues, reduced resistance, inflammation, etc. These complaints are the result of the disrupted mechanisms of action of the body. These are interrelated, so a disturbance in one mechanism can cause an imbalance in other functions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-color uagb-block-33517b32\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1e9c03814775d52bb8bd98957a70f4dd is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">&ldquo;Measure, understand, and optimize your body&rsquo;s functions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-uagb-columns uagb-columns__wrap uagb-columns__background-none uagb-columns__stack-mobile uagb-columns__valign-center uagb-columns__gap-30 align uagb-block-05de6695 uagb-columns__columns-2 uagb-columns__max_width-theme\"><div class=\"uagb-columns__overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"uagb-columns__inner-wrap uagb-columns__columns-2\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-image uagb-block-ba73bdae\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"956\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576-1024x956.png\" alt=\"Microbiome\" class=\"wp-image-6554\" style=\"width:256px;height:239px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576-1024x956.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576-300x280.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576-768x717.png 768w, https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576-1536x1433.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Ontwerp-zonder-titel-1-e1636368220576.png 1587w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-color uagb-block-91e5a491\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-microbiome\">The microbiome<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost all problems start in the intestines, the <span class=\"glossaryLink\"  aria-describedby=\"tt\"  data-cmtooltip=\"&lt;div class=glossaryItemTitle&gt;Microbiome&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div class=glossaryItemBody&gt;The&nbsp;microbiome&nbsp;is the genetic material of all the microbes - bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses - that live on and inside the human body.&nbsp;&amp;lt;img class=&amp;quot;alignnone size-full wp-image-1018&amp;quot; src=&amp;quot;https:\/\/www.nutriswitch.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/favicon-ns-2-e1586458601573.png&amp;quot; alt=&amp;quot;&amp;quot; width=&amp;quot;24&amp;quot; height=&amp;quot;24&amp;quot; \/&amp;gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/div&gt;\"  data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex='0' role='link'>microbiome<\/span>.

One of the therapist&rsquo;s first actions will be to find out to what extent the intestinal wall has been damaged and will then start with an intestinal protocol. Healing the bowels will be your first step to &ldquo;turning on&rdquo; the body&rsquo;s self-healing ability. Often you will soon notice a strong reduction in the symptoms at this stage, since the anti-nutrients are also immediately removed from the diet. The more adherence you have to this, the greater your result will be. So you have control over this result, we give you the tools and then it&rsquo;s you. The first period is decisive, the brain and cells need time to store the new information, so that it can control the rest of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The orthomolecular therapy then replenishes the deficiencies that have arisen. Organic and freshly prepared food is a first step in getting the body to function properly again. A strict diet is not necessary. In addition, deficiencies of certain nutrients are supplemented with vitamins, minerals and enzyme preparations for strengthening the immune system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-uagb-columns uagb-columns__wrap uagb-columns__background-none uagb-columns__stack-mobile uagb-columns__valign-center uagb-columns__gap-30 align uagb-block-60f5a59c uagb-columns__columns-1 uagb-columns__max_width-theme\"><div class=\"uagb-columns__overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"uagb-columns__inner-wrap uagb-columns__columns-1\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-color uagb-block-fd0a74b4\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-4b7c2c35\"><h4 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">The more you stick to the advice, <br>the greater your result will be.<\/h4><div class=\"uagb-separator\"><\/div><p class=\"uagb-desc-text\">You do have control over this result.
