Breaking Down ”Food is Medicine” with Dr. Patrick Nuzzo

Watch our podcast episode where we interview Dr. Patrick Nuzzo, the co-founder and president of Southwest University of Naprapathic Medicine (SUNM), and learn more about thinking of food as medicine. Patrick Nuzzo started his journey in Integrative Medicine in 1974 when he began his studies to become a functional nutritionist and 1979 he began his Naprapathic education and graduated from the National College of Naprapathic Medicine in 1983. Since then Dr. Nuzzo has opened, staffed and managed successful Naprapathic practices in Santa Barbara, California; Arlington Heights, Illinois; Lake Zurich, Illinois; Santa Fe, Los Alamos and Albuquerque, New Mexico. In 2010, SUNM opened its doors and began offering the Doctor of Naprapath degree and in 2021 SUNM became the first Naprapathic school in the United States ever accredited, as of 2023, 50 Naprapaths have graduated from SUNM.

Dr. Patrick also lives by what he teaches and in this episode he shares his why behind food choices and the bigger picture of how our decisions on food affect our own health, but also can drive industry.
