You may have seen that I offer Metabolic Balance to help people struggling with weight gain to finally lose weight and regain their energy and zest for life.
I understand that a weight management program like this is an investment of your time and money and perhaps you’ve never worked with a Naturopath like me before. I also understand that there are other similar products or services out there too. Sometimes it can feel hard to choose what’s best for you, so I wrote this blog to help you understand everything you need to know before deciding that I am the Coach for you!
I really want you to have all the info you need to make the choice that is right for you, so this blog will dive into all the details about Metabolic Balance.
Who is Metabolic Balance for?
Metabolic Balance is for anyone who is struggling to lose weight no matter what you try and is confused by what you should be eating.
You may be suffering from metabolic diseases such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes or insulin resistance, and your doctor has told you to lose some weight or go on meds.
You may be suffering from hormonal conditions such as PMS, migraines, endometriosis, PCOS or perimenopausal weight gain.
This program is for you if:
- You’re tired, burnt out, desperate to get your mojo back and you’re ready to make some positive health changes.
- You’re fed up with yo-yo dieting and want to learn how to eat right for the future.
- You’re at the fork in the road with your health and you know you need to make changes or risk damage to your health.
What exactly is Metabolic Balance?
Metabolic Balance is a personalised nutrition plan that matches your body’s metabolic chemistry to the right foods for you. It was developed by a German doctor and optimised over the last 25 years by scientists, and has helped over 1 million people world-wide.
After a simple blood test and an initial consultation to discuss your health concerns, 36 metabolic blood values and your personal profile are used to create an individualised nutrition plan telling you exactly what to eat and when. Then together with me to guide you through the journey, you learn the foods best suited for your body and create the lifestyle you need to know for balance, well-being and long-term health. The ultimate goal is teaching you how to cook delicious, nutritious meals for yourself that don’t need to be elaborate or time consuming, just simple, whole foods used as medicine.
There are four phases in the program and each one helps step you closer to your best health:
Phase 1 – The two day cleanse to prepare your body for weight loss.
Phase 2 – Following the plan as closely as possible to allow for optimised health, healing, reduced inflammation and the metabolic reset.
Phase 3 – Adding back in foods not on your plan and watching how your body responds. This phase is about listening intuitively to how your body responds and what foods make you feel best.
Phase 4 – Maintenance phase following the 80/20 rule. You’ve learned how to eat healthfully and intuitively, and can enjoy life going out without deprivation. To maintain your new weight you need to continue to eat like you’ve learned most of the time and exercise regularly.
Why I became a Metabolic Balance practitioner?
The right nutrition underpins the health of us all. Supporting the body using food as medicine is one of the foundations of naturopathic care. The fact is, eating healthier choices and releasing excess weight can help reverse or reduce the symptoms of so many conditions. It can also change people’s lives mentally and emotionally!
What is included in the program?
- Initial consultation and testing package: so you can gain a clear insight into the underlying drivers of your symptoms and we can develop a personalised plan for you.
- Personalised nutrition plan: that will help you eat the best foods for your body to heal, reduce inflammation and release weight.
- A herbal or supplemental prescription: designed to support your body through the process and manage your health condition (additional cost depending on the level of support you choose)
- Regular Follow Up Appointments: to help support you through the program and keep you on track.
Merchandise pack to keep you organised and kickstart the program. - Support workbooks and groups, meal planning and mindset sessions (depending on the level of support you choose).
how do i get started and what is the investment?
Step 1. Book in for your initial consultation:
This allows me to support your weight loss holistically by knowing the ins and outs of your health. Weight loss is not just calories in and out. Your weight can be affected by medical conditions, cultural background, genetics, the environment, sleep, medications, mental health and lifestyle, as well as the obvious ones such as what you actually eat, portion sizes and activity levels. Knowing your life holistically helps me better support you through the program.
