Robert Patino

I am a simple person, like most of you, who had an unrealistic relationship with food. I was well into my 20's before my morning sluggishness and fatigue was diagnosed as hypoglycemia. I also discovered that I was true example of the old adage, You Are What You Eat. The more junk I ate, the more I felt like day old garbage.

In my 30's, I took up the study of Naturopathy as a means to rid myself of so many ills and allergies. What I discovered is by reverting back to a plant-based way of eating completely changed how I felt, and even how I thought! I gave my body the things that are plentiful in nature: fruits, vegetables and water, then miracle of miracles, my body responded accordingly. I shed pounds and bad habits by tossing out processed foods. No miracle diet, really. Just a simple return to what nature intended.

In deciding to complete the study of a Naturopathy Doctoral program I seek to help others rid themselves of many food-based illnesses, like obesity, through living for keeping your health. I offer no quick fixes, pills or fad diets. We will discover the encouragement and social settings that can keep us encouraged and steady on our journey. We will learn and walk the path of a real, researched and relative way to keep the good health nature gave you in the first place for a lifetime.

Dr. Robert Patino has a Doctorate in Naturopathy from Trinity College of Natural Health and a Bachelor's in Communication from Michigan State University.
