Personalized Nutrition Support in Winter Park and Orlando, FL
If you have been eating reasonably well and still feel sluggish, inflamed, or unable to get ahead of a chronic condition, the missing piece may be what and how you are eating for your specific body. At Orlando Alternative Health, Dr. Jon Kukor, DTCM offers two distinct types of nutrition support: Traditional Chinese Medicine dietary therapy, and professional grade supplement guidance. They are different services, and not every patient needs both.
TCM Dietary Therapy
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, food is medicine. Every food has qualities that influence the body in specific ways, and those qualities can either support or aggravate your condition depending on your individual TCM pattern. This is not generic dietary advice. It is condition-specific guidance rooted in classical diagnosis.
A patient presenting with excessive dampness affecting digestion, for example, will receive targeted recommendations for foods that drain dampness and support the transforming and transporting function of the spleen. A patient with a different pattern receives a completely different protocol. Dr. Kukor takes the time to understand your full health picture before making any recommendations.
Professional Grade Supplement Guidance
Separate from TCM food therapy, Dr. Kukor also guides patients on targeted supplementation when it is clinically appropriate. This is not a TCM practice, but it is something he incorporates into care plans based on a patient’s individual needs and health goals.
What sets this apart from picking something up at a store is the quality of the products themselves. Published research has repeatedly documented that supplements sold through mass market retailers, including Amazon, GNC, and Walmart, frequently fail to deliver what the label claims. Counterfeit products are a documented problem online, and even legitimate store brands often use low-quality ingredient forms with poor bioavailability that your body cannot effectively absorb.
Orlando Alternative Health carries practitioner-only lines including Biotics Research, Designs for Health, Microbiome Labs, and Premier Research Labs. These brands are not available in retail stores. They are third-party tested, formulated to higher standards, and distributed exclusively through licensed providers. When Dr. Kukor recommends a supplement, you can be confident you are getting exactly what he prescribed, in a form your body can actually use.
