Weight Loss in St. Louis and Suburbs

Our Three-Phase Approach to Lasting Results

Our functional medicine-based program follows a three-phase approach, targeting critical areas like Candida overgrowth, toxicity, thyroid health, and hunger hormones. Here’s how we address each area:

• Candida: A natural yeast in the gut, but when it overgrows, it may lead to issues like bloating, fatigue, and cravings. By restoring a healthy gut environment, we help balance the levels for overall health.
• Toxicity: Toxins may accumulate in the body, leading to “Just Feel Horrible” (JFH) Syndrome, which includes symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and brain fog. Our program assists with detoxification, helping you feel better after losing the pounds.
• Thyroid Health: The thyroid regulates metabolism and energy. A sluggish thyroid can contribute to obesity, low energy, and dry skin. Our approach supports thyroid health, enhancing metabolism and energy levels.
• Hunger Hormones: Hormones like ghrelin, leptin, insulin, and cortisol influence hunger, fullness, and fat storage. Our focus is on balancing these hormones to help you manage cravings and maintain steady energy.
• Sleep: Poor sleep disrupts metabolism and increases cravings for high-calorie foods. We emphasize healthy sleep habits to support metabolic balance.
• Stress: Tension contributes to weight gain by promoting inflammation and disrupting hormone balance. Our program includes techniques to reduce stress, improving both mental well-being and physical health.
• Brain-Based Cravings: Food cravings often signal an imbalance in body or brain chemistry. We provide strategies to understand and manage cravings for a balanced diet.
• Food Management: Clean eating doesn’t have to be complex. We guide you through practical steps to create healthy eating habits, making it easier to maintain your ideal weight.
