Weight Loss

It is a well-known fact that obesity has tripled over the last 50 years. The latest information from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) shows 39.6% of Americans are obese. Overall, there are over 100 million obese people in this country. Researchers define obesity as a condition where fat accumulates in the body to become a risk factor or marker for chronic diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer, as well as adversely impacting overall health.

Conventional medicine recommends reducing caloric intake, increasing physical activity, and suggests over-the-counter or prescription drugs that suppress appetite or block fat absorption. However, conventional medicine fails to determine why someone becomes or stays obese, even after trying nearly every diet and over-hyped exercise machines.

The human body is a wonderfully complex mechanism, and taking a one-size-fits-all approach is often ineffective. There are metabolic, hormonal, environmental, and other factors that might be preventing someone from losing weight. Women's bodies are especially susceptible to the devastating effects of stress, inflammation, and exposure to toxins, causing hormonal imbalances and crippling proper metabolism, causing the body to store fat no matter what.

Each person is unique, and it takes time and effort to understand why obesity became a problem, and create a customized protocol, based on the patient's particular needs and preferences. A comprehensive approach helps repair metabolism, shed excess weight, and restore hormonal balance.
