Babal is a licensed clinical nutritionist with over 30 years' experience. He is a consultant to the natural
food and supplement industry and a former instructor for Southern California School of Culinary Arts. Ken Babal has written
over 500 articles that have appeared in many popular and professional publications including Taste for Life, Developing Healthy
Habits, Doctors' Prescription for Healthy Living, Townsend Letter, Well Being Journal and Drum. He is author of Good Digestion:
Your Key to Vibrant Health (Books Alive 2000), Seafood Sense: The Truth about Seafood Nutrition and Safety (Basic
Health Publications 2005) and Mushrooms for Health and Longevity (Books Alive 2011). Ken appears in the Discovery Health Channel documentary "Alternatives
Uncovered," E! TV's "The High Price of Fame: Starved!" and the reality TV series Kathy Griffin: My Life
on the D-List. As a professional musician and drummer, Ken became interested in nutrition as a means of realizing one's
optimum potential. "You can't have a bad day when you go on stage. Nutrition is something we have control over and
it plays a huge role in how we feel and perform each day."
What is Nutrition Counseling?
Nutrition counseling is a process
of collecting dietary information in order to correct imbalances and determine one's ideal diet and supplement
requirements. Improved nutrition typically translates into better physical and mental energy and weight normalization. Over
the long-term, a tailored program can reduce the risk of all kinds of diseases. Most people lack a nutrition plan or
are confused about the proper diet to follow. I want you to have the confidence of knowing that your diet is right for you.
You will then be more likely to stick to it.
My Philosophy
I recognize that one man's food
is another man's poison. I am suspicious of those who proclaim one diet to be good for all or bad for all. Many nutritionists
use a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I prefer to focus on your unique nutritional requirements based on your blood
type, body type, genotype, metabolism, activity level and present condition. My approach blends cutting edge science with
traditional health principles. I want you to realize your optimal genetic potential!
