Our Simple Naturopathic Weight Loss Strategy Helps Re-set your Metabolism While Improving Overall Health.

There are many health aspects to consider when someone finds it difficult to lose weight. Stress, hormones, nutritional deficiencies, gut bacteria, liver function, medications, food sensitivities and diet all play a role in how much weight we gain and lose on a daily basis. Gone are the days where one diet works for everyone. A holistic approach has to take into account including such factors as the individuals age, sex, history of illness, weight, energy and activity level. All of which can differ vastly in the general population.

Another important factor to consider is that fat is your bodies way of storing energy for a rainy day so when there is nothing to eat, you have fuel to keep living. The problem in the western world in particular is that we are constantly eating too many foods which stimulate large amounts of insulin. Insulin is the “fat gaining and sleepy hormone”. Together we investigate why your body isn’t recognising fat as an energy source, and then start creating an environment within the body where fat becomes the primary source of energy. In this kind of environment, fat is burnt for fuel and a side effect of that is weight loss.

As a holistic naturopath, I understand that many people have “tried” certain diets themselves, but with naturopathic investigatory tools and clinical supplements, your success rate is vastly increased.
