Weight Loss Treatment

Our intake and diagnostic process always includes comprehensive testing. We test a holistic set of factors to get a better picture of your overall health. Our tests give us important indicators into things like:

• Stress levels
• Digestive health
• Food sensitivities
• Metabolic function
• Hormone imbalances
• … and more

These tests help give us a broad picture of your health at many different levels. From there, we work with you to come up with a plan to address the most important factors that need to be changed in order for you to create a permanent solution for your issues. The end result is a happier, healthier, body for the rest of your life.

Not everybody gains weight for the same reasons, so it should seem obvious that a one-size-fits-all weight loss plan won’t work for the vast majority of people who try it. If you have a hormone imbalance, you are going to lose weight differently than somebody with a digestive condition, versus somebody with low activity levels, and so on. That is why we test. We want your plan to work for you (not everyone), and we want it to be able to last forever.

Hormones are huge when it comes to our weights. They are the signals that tell our brains when we are hungry and how much energy to use in certain situations. If you have struggled with weight loss for years, there is likely a hormonal issue. It’s not always as easy as “energy in and energy out.” Often, we have to look at hormone levels or other issues to find the real culprit behind stubborn weight.

Some hormone levels that affect weight loss include estrogen and cortisol. Cortisol in particular (known as the “stress hormone”) can make you store fat, especially around the gut and chest.

Hypothyroidism is another complex issue we help solve that has a noticeable impact on weight and hormone levels.

Although nutritional counseling is not the only important aspect of weight loss, it is certainly a big one. Your body is designed to break down and digest real foods — foods like meat, veggies, and fruits. When your body intakes processed, nutrient-poor, and calorie-dense foods full of chemicals, it doesn’t function the way it was intended. Your body is like a vehicle, you have to put in the right fuel for it to run properly. These malfunctions can cause a whole slew of issues — one of the main problems being weight gain.

Some of the other issues a poor diet can create are:

• Thyroid Problems
• Chronic Stress
• Toxin Overload
• Hormonal Imbalances

Proper diet can also aid in other factors that may be causing your weight gain, such as inflammation, thyroid function, nutritional deficiency and more. Dr. Goodbinder and the Epigenetic Healing Center will develop a catered dietary plan that takes into account your specific conditions and molecular makeup.

We’ll analyze intake/outtake, your protein-to-fat ratio, and other factors that make your specific type of weight gain unique from others. However your body works, we help you get rid of unwanted fat once and for all.
