Healthy Weight Loss and Weight Management

Weight Loss and Weight Mangement with a holistic and naturopathic approach focuses on the whole person and the root causes of weight gain, rather than just dieting or exercise. Weight loss is a symptom of an imbalance in the body. There is a larger and more detailed approach to long lasting weight loss.  Changes are necessary, but worth it, not just for weight loss but for a stronger, more resilient and healthier life moving forward.  Bringing the body back into balance can help you lose the weight now and keep it off.

Here are some key aspects of this approach:

  1. Individualized Plan: Everyone has a different biological makeup.  Factors such as genes, metabolism, gender, stress, sleep, thyroid issues, hormone levels and overall health all play a vital role in weight loss. A naturopathic approach tailors the weight loss plan to each individual, taking into account these, and others
  2. Understanding the Cause: This approach includes understanding what’s causing weight gain. It may involve tests to understand fasting blood glucose, food sensitivities, thyroid function, and more that allows the physician to drive to the root causes and understand the tools you have available to lose weight.
  3. Nutrition and Diet: A healthy diet and digestive system are key parts to this approach. High quality, clean, low inflammatory diets can have a positive impact on your body. Some methylated nutraceuticals may be recommended to further enhance good nutrition and support that your body can process. A healthy digestive system is important so your body can process the nutrients in a way that your mitochondria and body can use. Low glucose levels and efficient glycogen stores help the body reduce spikes and run effectively.
  4. Hormonal Imbalance: Hormones can impact many processes in the body including ones that impact weight gain, loss and management. Balanced hormones have a positive impact on the body’s ability to process nutrition, store fat and retrieve it for future use, reduce inflammation, conduct healthy detoxification, etc. Balance if key for healthy body functions.
  1. Exercise: Regular physical activity and movement tailored to the individual is also important so to encourage processes that burn calories, hormonal production, detoxifications and others.
  1. Lifestyle Changes: This could include stress management methods, improving sleep quality, mindfulness exercises, Heart Rate Variability, Mind and Heart Coherence, Air Quality, etc.
  1. Avoiding Toxins: It’s also important to avoid environmental chemicals known as obesogenic toxicants, which can affect the endocrine system and contribute to weight gain.

Remember, sustainable weight loss is a journey that involves making long-term changes to your lifestyle and diet and possibly healing root causes that have led to the problem in the first place. To have a long-lasting experience the changes may need to be permanent. Contact us at the information below to have a further conversation and potentially schedule an appointment with the Doctor.
