Tailored nutrition and exercise strategies for sustainable weight management
Not all people are created equal, and neither is your response to food. Gaining muscle or losing fat, we individualize treatment plans that work for you, to help with your specific goals, and uncover if there are any genetic or physiologic reasons behind a weight imbalance.
Your assessment may include:
1) Nutrition: This starts at an in-depth look into your daily diet, to ensure that you are getting adequate macronutrients that you need in order to fuel your body. We also dig a little deeper to ensure we are getting the right micronutrients for energy production, blood sugar balance, and balanced metabolism. We can adjust the diet to include nutrient-rich foods, but can also supplement with various vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Your diet can be tailored to help your body fuel what it needs most.
2) Exercise: We will analyze the amount, type, intensity, and duration of exercise that you are currently doing and help improve this exercise to fit your own personal needs. Nutrition is the key to healthy weight maintenance, but exercise is the next best way to supplement this!
3) Lifestyle factors: Removing barriers to your weight goals through various lifestyle factors, such as drinking, smoking, or a stress coping mechanisms.
4) Lab Testing: this may include hormonal testing, blood sugar/diabetes markers, thyroid health, and digestion markers.
5) Therapies: can include herbal treatments, vitamins and minerals, IV therapy or injection therapies to help replace lost nutrients or add nutrients that are not being well absorbed through diet.
