Naturopathic Weight Loss
Australia is in the grip of an obesity epidemic, with over 50% of the population now officially overweight. Below is just a partial list of diseases which Australians can expect to develop in the future;
- Heart Disease
- Type II Diabetes
-
Cancer
-
Depression
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome & Infertility
- High Cholesterol / Atherosclerosis / Deep Vein Thrombosis
And all the complications that accompany them. Not to mention the prescription cascade which
at best ‘manages your symptoms’ but fails to get you well.
Prescription medication provides ‘acute care’ to get you out of
a potentially dangerous situation.
However, compliance with these drugs is often poor due to side-effects
such as lowered energy, vitality and libido.
Making dietary and lifestyle changes in conjunction with taking
the prescribed medication, produces a win-win situation for everyone. By simply learning how to achieve weight loss and
take off extra kilos has a significant impact on preventing and reversing
chronic health conditions.
Waist circumference is now recognized as a good predictor of a
person developing a combination of the above diseases, which is referred to as Metabolic
Syndrome. The main driver of this
syndrome is insulin resistance.
So how to go about achieving permanent weight loss?
The Key to Weight Loss is understanding what caused the weight gain in the first place............
Everyday we see women
and men who are ‘doing everything right’. They’re exercising and eating a balanced diet
and yet they cannot lose weight. Some women even gain weight while on this new
‘healthy’ regime. At Getting Well
Naturally we understand that weight gain can be driven by many things... not
just a bad diet and a lack of exercise. Weight gain is often the result of
hormonal imbalances within the body and many women also have conditions such as
underactive thyroids and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome which make it very
difficult to achieve weight loss through diet and exercise alone. In fact, recent
research indicates that 75% of women have hormonal imbalances which contribute
to their weight gain. Numerous other factors
also contribute to weight gain. They include undiagnosed food allergies,
infection, inflammation, stress, emotional issues, depression & anxiety.
