When it comes to losing weight, everyone is an expert… or so it seems.

But with more than 1.4 billion overweight or obese people in the world it's clear that more options and opinions do not lead to better results.

And with $120 billion dollars spent worldwide every year on weight loss products and services, you could be forgiven for thinking that the only thing getting thinner is your wallet.

Advanced Clinical Weight Management, unlike wonder pills, obsessive diets or reality TV programs, is designed and implemented specifically for your body's needs and is only offered by highly trained natural health care professionals such as myself.

By undergoing a detailed case history and comprehensive testing, we can provide you with dietary advice and nutritional supplementation to support you in achieving lasting health and wellbeing.

And whilst it might take some time and effort, by working with a program specific to your needs, you can finally get off the treadmill and onto the more interesting things in life.

The New Weight Management Screening Profile available at the clinic allows me to uncover the many complex and individual factors that can contribute to your weight management issues.

Factors addressed at the clinic include:
- inefficient oxidation of fatty acids
- insulin resistance
- metabolic blocks in energy production
- thyroid function
- hormonal imbalances
- nutritional deficiencies
- impaired detoxification
- inflammation
- neurotransmitter imbalances

With this solid scientific approach we can achieve the effective and long lasting results you deserve.

Did you know most lean adults have enough energy stored in fat cells to complete 25 marathons? If you don't take action your excess weight could be the precursor of cardiovascular disease - the leading cause of death in the developed world. So let's get this abundant energy reserve working for you.

A good weight loss regime will ensure that you have all the macro and micro nutrients you need for good health ensuring; you maintain good blood sugar levels, you cleanse and detoxify, support the repair and balance of your intestinal health, all so that you feel energised and revitalised.

The main focus of the weight management system is on adjusting the proteins, carbohydrates and fats in the diet so that the body switches to burning fat for energy. Through support and monitoring your diet, habits are learnt throughout the program so that individuals can maintain their goal weight.

Jason and Ally help you with a healthy long term plan that offers much more than weight reduction.

A state of the art body composition monitor is used to track your progress and motivate you as that fat burns away.

Your metabolic rate and age is assesed and if need be remedies prescribed.

Specific brain neurotransmitter imbalances are assessed as deficiencies can lead to over eating and sweet cravings.

Dietary tips and remedies are given to enhance thermogenisis.

Address specific urges and cravings and the real emotional drivers that trigger compulsive overeating such as; fear of feeling deprived, feeling protected by weight, fears of intimacy,feeling comfort from food, guilt from over eating...

Weight loss regimes are tailoured to suit your individual biochemical needs.

Our new Weight Management Screening Profile can be tailored to your individual requirements. By using one 24-hour urine sample, the profile measures the metabolites in the urine that can indicate fat metabolism and energy production issues. Additional markers can be added to the profile to reveal any hormonal contributors to the problem.

Markers Tested
Fatty acid metabolites
Do you have blocks that inhibit you from burning fat? High levels of the following fatty acid metabolites in the urine may indicate inefficient oxidation of fatty acids, and may also indicate deficiencies of nutrients required for fatty acid oxidation:
Adipic acid
Suberic acid
Beta-hydroxy-beta methylglutaric acid
Beta-hydroxy-butyrate
Energy Production Cycle markers
Do you have blocks that cause low energy? High levels of the following Energy Production markers in the urine can indicate metabolic blocks in the Energy Cycle (citric acid cycle), and highlight inefficient energy production and your specific nutrient deficiencies:
Lactic acid
Pyruvic acid
Citric acid
Cis-aconitic acid
Isocitric acid
Alpha-ketogluaric acid
Fumaric acid
Malic acid

To test all of the above fatty acid and energy production cycle metabolites is only $140. Why? Because burning fat and having the energy to exercise are at the core of any succesful weight managemnt program. By having these biochemical pathways working correctly you have the foundations for a healthier, slimmer you!

Optional Additions
Hormones
Thyroid hormones T3 and T4, cortisol, DHEA, oestrone (E1), oestradiol (E2), progesterone, testosterone, and androstenedione.

Salivary Hormone Profile
Alternatively, you may choose to use salivary hormone testing. Up to eight different hormones (oestradiol (E2),oestrone (E1), oestriol (E3), progesterone, testosterone, DHEAS, Cortisol, Melatonin) can be measured from small salivary samples taken at multiple intervals throughout a 24-hour period

* Body Fat % Do you have too much or not enough fat?

* Segmental Body Fat % Measurement of each arm, each leg and trunk area designed for athletes taking their fitness to the next level. Especially useful for anyone who is monitoring the balance of left and right side of body or trying to build or rehabilitate a particular part of one's body

* Visceral Fat Rating Visceral fat surrounds the internal organs in the stomach/trunk area of your body. Ensuring you have healthy levels of visceral fat reduces the risk of certain diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure and delays the onset of type 2 diabetes. Monitoring your results can help you adjust your lifestyle to stay in the low risk range.

* Total Body Water % Are you drinking enough water? (almost all people who live to a hundred report drinking a lot of water)

* Bone Mass Indicates the weight of bone mineral in the body. The development of muscle tissue has been shown to encourage stronger, healthier bones. It is important to develop and maintain healthy bones through plenty of exercise along with a range of bone building nutrients.

* Basal Metabolic Rate Indicates the number of calories your body burns when at rest. Unlike other methods of calculating BMR, Innerscan takes the amount of muscle in your body into account, giving a more accurate picture of your dietary requirements. Your BMR will tend to decrease as you get older - you can help prevent this through a regular routine of cardiovascular exercise and increased activity.

* Metabolism Age Your BMR starts to decrease after the age of 17 and the metabolic age rating indicates what age level your body is currently rated at. Aim to keep young!

* Muscle Mass Calculates the weight of muscle in your body. Do you have too much or not enough muscle?

* Segmental Muscle Mass measurement of each arm, each leg and trunk area designed for athletes taking their fitness to the next level. Especially useful for anyone who is monitoring the balance of left and right side of body or trying to build or rehabilitate a particular part of one's body

* Physique Rating Describes your overall physique or body shape by examining the balance between the amounts of body fat and muscle in your body.
