We simply cannot believe that multiple health issues
come from unrelated causes! The body functions as a whole, therefore it is affected as a whole. If an metabolic
problem is causing weight gain, there must be other related symptoms, (see check list for other associated problems).
Blood testing can confirm these interrelated conditions and provide the foundation for effective
treatment.
Here is a basic overview of how we evaluate each new patient....
We always begin our new patient evaluation with a question
and answer screening. The screening is very effective in determining if a patient will or will not be a good candidate.
(screening questions are located in the "checklist" tab to the left).
Patients with metabolic disorders usually have various issues
that directly relate to the weight gain. Unfortunately, medically, these conditions have never evaluated
as a whole.
For
example: Did you know each of the following can be caused by the very same protein imbalance?
Weight gain--------Fatigue------Poor sleeping-----Constipation-----IBS-----Headaches
The following can be the result of poor liver
function:
Weigh gain------Irregular blood sugar levels-----High blood pressure-----High cholesterol
Each
of the issues noted on the "check list" form have interconnected metabolic relationships.
The more you have the higher your chances are of having a metabolic
disorder.
The average patient has between 3 to 6 interconnected issues. The more
secondary issues, the more advanced the metabolic disorder has become.
