Lose Weight with Metabolic Typing and Keep It Off
Metabolic typing can help you lose weight and keep the weight off. Once you have determined your metabolic type, a customized diet is designed for you including your vitamins and supplements. The customized diet is easy, flexible and sustainable. You are eating the right foods. Eating the right foods allows for weight loss and maintenance. For example, if your metabolic typing requires diets weighted in proteins, the diet will consist of 70% protein and fats and 30% protein. If your diet requires a heavier diet weighted in carbs, your diet will consist of 40% protein and 60% carbs. The same is true for your vitamins and supplements. EVERYONE should lose the refined grains, starches an sugar (killers).
Metabolic typing optimizes the blood ph and balances metabolism. It really is about metabolism or how your cells break down food and use it for energy. Eat according to your metabolic type and heal the body, lose weight and improve longevity. Tests to determine the metabolic type includes a questionnaire (physical, dietary and psychological characteristics are determined), vital signs, weight, height, fasting insulin and glucose, Hgb and Hct, fasting triglycerides, Chem panel, cortisol and thyroid levels.
Challenge yourself to lose weight, keep the weight off, improve longevity, feel and look younger.
