Rise & Empower
THE REVIFELIFE APPROACH
Our practitioners bring years of experience, tailored advanced diagnostic testing including markers for many aspects of health that may be linked to metabolism concerns including nutrient status, inflammation, metabolism, hormones, complete thyroid panels, neurotransmitters, detoxification, genetics, toxins, and food sensitivities which are often not found at your traditional medical doctor’s office. We look for answers to the root cause of your specific concerns, including Why… do you have weight concerns, or why you are eating healthy and working out, but your weight won’t budge.
The Revivelife approach may include the following therapies: fitness, nutrition (foods rich in iodine, selenium, zinc and vitamin A, supplements and or IV therapy), food sensitivities, mood stabilization, hormone balancing both naturally, and or with bio-identical hormone therapy (BHRT), targeted supplements, acupuncture and or stress management that can help heal emotional eating patterns. Targeted therapy for weight loss may include:
- Tryptophan or 5-HTP: These are both precursors to serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter involved in digestive function, as well as mood, and signaling satiety or the feeling of being full. 1 Multiple studies have shown that calorie-reduced menus, while successful at weight loss, also reduce circulating tryptophan by 14-25%, which may lead to reduced serotonin levels, increased hunger, and a reduction in the ability to maintain weight loss. 2
- Bladderwrack: This herb is a specialized seaweed that helps support a healthy rate of carbohydrate digestion and absorption by targeting enzymes in the digestive tract.
- Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy (BHRT): Optimal hormone regulation is key for successful weight management
