HOLISTIC WEIGHT LOSS
WITH DR. DAVID DUIZER ND
Your body desires a state of balance.
When it is in balance achieving an optimal weight is much easier. This section explores the key elements of a holistic weight loss approach. We talk about lab assessments, finding functional weight loss blocks and how to use trials of natural therapies before pharmaceuticals.
BREAKING THROUGH BLOCKS
PRACTICE HOLISTIC WEIGHT LOSS WITH US
Choose your own adventure.
Many of you could likely have success without even using this section. We know however that when these blocks are brought back to balance weight loss happens quicker and more efficiently. Of course, this section could be an entire program on its own. Because we believe so deeply in the other pillars of the DAMY Lean we have structured this section as a “choose your adventure” type of area.
This means that in order to help you achieve weight loss success as quick as possible we ask that you look through the “symptoms” section of each block and focus on where you feel you most need balance. Once you feel you have achieved balance in that area it is time to move on to your next most likely block, and so on.
Take your time.
This is a process. There may be many areas for you to work on. There is no rush. It takes time to set in motion an imbalance in one of these systems and we expect it to take significant time to optimize them again. We wish you the best along your journey. If you need guidance, lab tests or supplement recommendations let us know. Lets get going!
DETERMINE YOUR BLOCK
We all have the opportunity for optimal wellness. Lets embrace it.
Please review the sections provided. Start with your most likely “plateau” cause and move through to least. We discuss how we evaluate, treat and track medical conditions and functional imbalances of many systems. Each can influence metabolism. Each is important on this journey.
We have 10 blocks to cover and multiple examples of imbalances within each block. Choose where to start from the following list:
HORMONE BALANCE
Metabolism, blood sugar control, mood, energy and sleep all depend on your hormones being in balance. Review your symptoms here.
THYROID FUNCTION
Thyroid function can make or break your weight loss journey. Make sure your’s is optimized & your metabolism is firing with our guidance.
LOW NUTRIENTS
Without proper nutrient levels the body cannot function. Make sure you aren’t missing anything important for weight loss, metabolism, hormone, immune or appetite function. This is essential.
DIGESTIVE DYSFUNCTION
Digestive issues can cause cravings, bloating, indigestion and constipation. These all make weight loss much more difficult. Functional digestive tract problems are a potential cause for each weight loss “block”.
CHRONIC INSOMNIA
We understand the value of sleep in weight loss and also know that chronic insomnia is not something that can be resolved in one night. Follow our approach for lasting success.
ENERGY BOOSTING
Sufficient energy levels are not just important on a weight loss program. We need solid energy to feel good in our day-to-day lives.
STRESS MANAGEMENT
Stress is hard on every organ system but as a symptom it plays a major roll in creating weight loss plateaus. Use our treatment techniques and investigation tools to manage yours.
INFLAMMATION & PAIN
Inflammation and pain can suppress metabolism, cause significant fatigue and be very frustrating. We have a balanced approach that could curb your symptoms and unlock your weight loss potential.
CRAVINGS & HUNGER
Sometimes hunger is overwhelming on a low calorie plan. Changes in diet can also shake up our ability to perceive hunger signals. Find out how to balance hunger hormones and curb cravings for life.
