Why take a closer look at metabolic health?

Our mission is to optimize your metabolic health, reducing your risk of disorders like diabetes and metabolic syndrome. We achieve this through detailed analysis of your metabolic profile and tailored strategies that significantly impact your health journey.

Metabolic disorders are a global health concern, leading to severe complications such as heart disease and stroke. Like plaque accumulation in arteries, these disorders develop over time, making early intervention crucial.

Traditional primary care may not fully assess metabolic health. Our advanced metabolic module fills this gap, offering critical tests and personalized strategies for comprehensive metabolic health management.

Which tests are performed?

We perform a comprehensive set of tests, including continuous glucose monitoring, HbA1C, uric acid, GGT, anemia panel, CBC, CMP, magnesium, key vitamins, and insulin. These tests, combined with an evaluation of your personal risk factors with special attention to lifestyle choices, nutrition, exercise, and family history provide a detailed picture of your metabolic health.

What sorts of personalized treatments do you recommend?

Your personalized profile serves as a roadmap, pointing out potential areas of concern and serving as the basis for targeted health strategies. We may recommend metabolic health interventions like:

- Lifestyle alterations (balanced, nutrient-dense diets, regular cardio, strength training, and flexibility exercises, and quality sleep)
- Pharmaceutical interventions, if appropriate (including but not limited to metformin and GLP-1 agonists)
- Supplemental options aimed at bolstering metabolic health (for example creatine and berberine as indicated)

We tailor treatment recommendations based on unique needs and circumstances. These personalized plans aim to improve metabolic health parameters, decrease the risk of metabolic disorders, and promote overall longevity.

At the conclusion of this module, you will understand how your unique body metabolizes fuel, learn how to optimize your metabolism for you, and mitigate your risk of metabolic disorders, which are a leading cause of preventable health complications.
