Weight Loss and Management

Whether it is weight gain or weight loss you are concerned with, a Naturopath can help you create an effective and realistic eating programme, designed to ensure healthy weight management and optimal nutrition.

Unwanted weight gain can be a function of a number of factors not just diet and exercise. A Naturopath will consider the typical weight loss factors such as diet, exercise and detoxification and look for imbalances specific to the individual, such as sluggish glucose metabolism, hormonal dysfunction, poor sleeping habits and stress in order to formulate an effective, lasting weight loss plan.

Problems putting on weight can also be multi factorial and it is a Naturopath’s role to consider the patient holistically to help identify the underlying cause. A Naturopath is trained in sports nutrition and can design a healthy eating plan to help optimise weight, nutritional profile and performance.
