Weight Optimization
WEIGHT OPTIMIZATION
You’ve tried every diet out there, but you’re still struggling to maintain a healthy weight
Whether you’ve been struggling with weight your entire life, or are just recently experiencing weight loss resistance, our online weight optimization program can truly help you reach your goals.
If you’re ready to accelerate weight loss and set yourself up for sustained success in a natural and healthy way, we are here to help. It’s time that you have REAL answers and clear steps to finally feel confident in your body.
Unlike other weight loss programs that focus solely on the “calories in, calories out” method or have a one diet fits all approach, our ALFAGENIX virtual wellness program is highly individualized.
When you work with us, you’ll have access to state-of-the-art labs that give us an insight as to why your body is holding on to that weight. Is it from genetic variations or hormonal imbalances like low testosterone, high TSH, high insulin, high HbA1c, high or low cortisol, or imbalanced estrogen to progesterone ratios?
We will look into hormones that affect weight loss
With a simple saliva and blood spot collection that can be done in the comfort of your home, we’ll get a comprehensive inside look into your levels of hormones, nutrients, and inflammatory markers, as listed below:
- Estradiol
- Progesterone
- Testosterone
- DHEA
- Morning Cortisol
- TSH
- HbA1c
- hs-CRP
- Vitamin D
Imbalanced levels of the above can lead to slow metabolism, imbalanced blood sugar, increased hunger and cravings, inflammation, and ultimately weight loss resistance.
Genetics and Weight Loss Management
With another cheek swab, you can find out your genetic variation of the genes listed below. This test along with the salivary comprehensive described above will give a 360-degree evaluation of your weight problem.
Slightly different diet plans will be recommended depending on if you have a variant of the following allele(s):
- Human fat-mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO)
- Melanocortin 4 Receptor (MC4R)
- Fatty acid-binding protein 2
- Beta-adrenoreceptor 2 (ADRB2)
- SH2B1 adapter protein 1 (SH2B1)
Knowing which allele variants you have is how we can optimize your weight loss journey and help overcome possible predispositions so you can reach ongoing weight maintenance.
Knowing your genetic makeup can help you understand your risks and help you make better decisions about your environment and diet choices. Remember, your genetics don’t rule you. You have a say in which genes are turned on and off.
Addressing Inflammation for Weight Loss Management
Studies have shown that systemic inflammation increases as percent body fat increases. Prioritizing a diet and lifestyle that is focused on reducing inflammation may be necessary if your inflammatory markers are elevated. Factors that increase inflammation are poor diet, food sensitivities, toxin exposures, stress, and lack of sleep. We will focus on these areas to get your inflammation under control to help speed up your metabolism.
