Dr. Garko’s Philosophy of Nutrition
The Priority of Nutrition
For the past 20 years I have embraced and advocated for what I call the priority principle of
nutrition. That is, nutrition is the first principle of health, wellness and wellbeing. That is, all
pathways to health, wellness and wellbeing begin and eventually end on the road of nutrition. It
is nutrition that allows us to function biologically, physiologically, psychologically and even
spiritually or otherwise to exist on the level of a mind, body and spirit. 1 Furthermore, nutrition
empowers people to take charge of their health.
