When a person decides to diet, they typically speak with a provider that points them in the right direction. Unfortunately for most, it is a guessing game as to which diet is suggested. Bias, lack of pertinent information regarding the diet or the patient themselves, or differing philosophies can be stop gaps when it comes to finding the right diet for a patient. With metabolic testing, our providers at Rx Health and Wellness Weight Loss Clinic of Owasso, Oklahoma take the guessing game out of the equation.
With metabolic testing, we are able to determine your baseline metabolism to provide key, actionable data to help us better understand your physiology. With this information, we are better able to provide a weight loss protocol that fits your needs and more importantly, your body. The information provided by metabolic testing also allows for our providers to determine if there are issues with your metabolism that may need to be addressed. This approach sets our patients up for the best chance of success in their weight loss journey.
By measuring your resting metabolic rate, your resting energy expenditure is measured to determine how many calories your body is burning everyday without physical activity. If your metabolism is slow, then we look at other information which can help our providers determine if there is an underlying issue. If your metabolism is working in a generally accepted range, then our Rx Health and Wellness Weight Loss Clinic of Owasso, Oklahoma providers proceed to gather more information to provide a custom weight loss program that is based on all of the gathered information. As you progress through the program, our providers continue to gather data to tailor the program to better fit you. This is extremely important because just as no two people look or act the same, no two bodies metabolize in the exact same way.
Dieting frameworks like keto, Atkins, or South Beach, are just that, frameworks. They provide guidelines for dieters to follow with the hopes of losing, and more importantly, keeping the weight off. With information gathered from metabolic testing, we can tweak the guidelines to better fit your physiology as well as looking to alternatives if results are not as expected. With the help of our providers and the information gleaned from metabolic testing, you can know what foods are helping and which foods are harming your progress. Our providers can then help you decide on which changes will make the largest potential impact. At Rx Health and Wellness Weight Loss Clinic of Owasso, Oklahoma, we strive to use all of the data to the best of our ability to help our patients succeed and achieve their weight loss goals.
While the scale is certainly an indicator of progress when losing weight, it is a mediocre one at best. Too many factors play into a seemingly simple concept like “weight loss.” How your body is handling the weight loss, where the weight is being lost from, how your health is being affected, and many other factors should be considered in order to have the greatest chance of success. With metabolic testing offered at Rx Health and Wellness Weight Loss Clinic of Owasso, Oklahoma, our providers can quantify how your body is handling the weight loss program. This beneficial insight allows for increasingly effective changes to be made to your weight loss program.
