Diet and Nutrition
At neurOasis, we encourage your personal challenge in weight loss, and are here to offer support, advice and medical treatment and counseling by our Naturopathic physician, Dr. Laurie Teitelman.
Learning to eat proper nutrition is more simple than many books and experts would have you believe. On this site you can begin to learn the basics of healthy eating and learning how you can harness your own minds to make more healthy food choices. We at neurOasis understand how hard weight control can be, as George Bernard Shaw once put it: "There is no love sincerer than the love of food".
Each subject below will bring you to a new window that will educate you on the subject you choose. We also encourage you to use TriggerTrakker on our website, as a tool to track the foods you are eating and to learn how better nutrition affects your headaches, pain and general health and well being. At neurOasis, we stress that diets and fads are not the key to losing weight or good health, it is the mindfulness of what you are doing when and how you eat that you can learn to control with your own mind.
We are also happy to make referrals to some of the best nutrionists in New York City.
