All programs begin with past history medical consultation and diagnostic evaluation.
You are then referred out to a Lab for Lab Tests to evaluate your hormonal status.
The fact is that as we age, we undergo physiological changes that encourage weight gain. These include hormonal changes and alterations in the way our bodies process nutrients. We believe, that, in addition to a sensible, balanced diet and exercise, the only way to successfully lose weight is to address the underlying hormonal imbalances that promote weight gain.
Based on the labs results, you will be given nutrient and supplement recommendations, to ideally, restore their hormonal profile to what it was at the age of 25, an age at which weight gain is less often a problem.
