The Healthy and Active Metabolism program, which originates from Germany, is a medically based therapeutic nutritional program that takes into account your metabolism as well as your genetic predisposition. This unique program is based on the latest scientific findings from nutritional science about the connection between metabolism and nutrition and is exclusive to Naturopathic Doctors who are trained and qualified in this module.
Metabolic experts at Harvard University compared scientific research and discovered that our metabolism functions today much as it did in the Stone Age. In the course of evolution we have not adapted to recent changes in nutrition and exercise (too many processed carbohydrates and too little exercise).
Just as a car requires the right type of fuel, our cells need the right type of food to be properly maintained. They need the right combination of carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Our metabolism must function optimally to create the right fuel for our body’s cells.
Everyone’s metabolism functions differently. Your metabolism is controlled by the nervous system, hormonal system, organ activity and genetics. Under the Healthy and Active program, an extensive metabolic analysis (using results from 42 different blood values) determines exactly how your metabolism is functioning and which foods will optimally influence your metabolic state.
It is important to stress that this program is not just for weight loss! Although the program will enable you to reach your optimal weight, a change in eating habits will improve your overall health and well being, leading to a more vibrant and balanced state.
Everyone can benefit from this program!
