Therapeutic diet

Therapeutic diets are planned to maintain or restore good nutrition in patients. They are often used to supplement medical treatment or manage conditions like cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure, diabetes, fever, constipation, and diarrhea. Therapeutic diets focus on recommended and restricted foods, daily menus, and nutrient allowances tailored to the specific condition and needs of the patient. Naturopathy also uses therapeutic diets and lifestyle changes as part of a holistic approach to disease treatment and prevention that focuses on self-healing through natural remedies like herbal medicine, hydrotherapy, and exercise.
