Weight Control Treatment
AALI approaches weight management as a critical component of the patient’s overall health.
Weight gain can be related to Iodine Insufficiency and other Thyroid problems, Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Syndrome and Adrenal Dysfunction among other things.
Lab testing includes basic health panels to look for these problems as well as specific vitamin and metabolic testing. We do high tech testing for these vitamins and supplements in particular:

In addition to this we can do urine testing for iodine and saliva testing for adrenal gland dysfunction. This workup is recommended even for people who plan to get surgery. Our ‘Easy cleanse’ system (which can be purchased separately) helps to remove toxins that can slow down the metabolism.
The laboratory tests and nutritional assessment provide the information used to design a customized weight control program that resolves imbalances whether they be hormonal, nutritional or mineral.The replacement of deficient nutrients, minerals, vitamins and protein will positively improve a patients ability to lose and manage their weight. This supplementation plus exercise and if necessary, appetite suppressants both herbal and pharmaceutical means we can pretty much guarantee weight loss in our patients.
We also give metabolism boosting shots when needed.
