A good healthcare practitioner won't treat the symptoms but will treat the underlying cause. The western diet, which is high in processed, sugary carbohydrates and trans fats, is linked to detrimental effects on our memory, cognition, and even our emotions. It is believed and has been researched by many, that this diet promotes inflammation, alters the gut microbiota, and contributes to chronic stress, both physical and mental. Immune health was not highlighted until a few years ago. Practitioners and patients quickly realized that if you take care of your body, your body will take care of you. A holistic approach typically means that we think of the entire body when focusing on health and not just one part of the body, as our bodies are connected and if one part of our body and external and internal forces impact other areas of our body. For example, your gut health directly affects your mental health, therefore, if you eat foods that cause inflammation or foods that have a lot of chemicals in them you might notice that you feel sluggish or even sad. A holistic approach is the most effective way to treat mental health as well as physical health.
