Metabolic Balance

Starting Can be The Hardest Part

Figuring out what to eat can be a minefield. There are bucketloads of different diets for everything. But usually you don’t need one specific diet for one specific reason, you are a whole person with many different needs. Just because something works for your best friend or neighbor down the road, doesn’t mean that it is right for you!!! Metabolic Balance is a nutrition plan that is designed specifically FOR YOU!!!

What is the Metabolic Balance program?

 

Metabolic Balance is a nutrition program that tailor makes its plans for you.

Your metabolism is involved in building and breaking down, in an array of different processes in your body. These processes are integral and when your metabolism is not working to its full potential your body will start to feel it. For every piece of food you eat, for every muscle you make or hormone you produce, your body’s metabolic pathways are at work. For these to function optimally your body also needs enzymes, cofactors and energy. Food is where we get the foundations for these so if you aren’t eating the right foods, your body will not only struggle to get what it needs from them, but the processes will also begin to struggle.

The concept that food can be your medicine is not a new one. That makes it no less true now than it was then. What you eat can cause havoc in the body and a once vital, energetic and healthy body can become dull, lethargic and fragile.

The basis of Metabolic Balance is to get your metabolism back in balance. Using wholefoods that have been specifically chosen for you and your body the aim is to get you back to feeling great and all the other benefits that come along with it.

What do we look at before you start your Metabolic Balance plan??

  • Blood Pathology

    We use a minimum of 35 blood parameters to assess nutrient and enzyme levels along with metabolic and organ functions. At times we may use additional testing if needed based on your specific needs.

  • Current Food Habits, Allergies and Intolerences

    We look at where you are currently with your nutrition and where you want to be. Any allergies or extreme dislikes are taken into account, but remember - Nothing changes if nothing changes.

    • If you want to have a list of foods specific to you and your body that will allow change to occur for you.

    • Wanting someone to guide you through the process. You don’t get the plan and are left to figure it out. This is a program where you are supported through the process to give you the best chance of reaching those goals.

    • Noticing that your hormonal and metabolic health are starting to decline and you want to do something to improve it.

    • Trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight with added vitality for the future.

    • Sick of feeling tired, exhausted, sluggish and wanting to stay in your pajamas in bed all day - When you eat a healthy wholefood diet full of nutrients, vitamins and minerals you will notice the difference.

    • You are ready to commit and make the change!!!!

  • This is not the right plan for you if you.....

    • Can’t commit to eating 3 wholefood meals a day - that means fruit, vegetables and protein.

    • Aren’t willing to make any changes. To cause change you need to make changes.

    • Can’t agree to have 2 weeks exercise free - the first 2 weeks we recommend no exercising while the body is making changes.

    • Agree to eat an apple a day and start drinking enough water for your body needs.

    • Are pregnant or breastfeeding. A nutrition change like this starts with some detoxing and we don’t want any of those nasties getting to your baby.

    • Based on the Metabolic Balance method, there are not enough variations in a vegan diet to ensure you will get sufficient nutrients.

    • Significant renal or liver dysfunction - Why don’t you book a strategy call and we can assess if this plan is right for your body.
