It is clear, after decades of research into different diets, that losing weight is much more than calories in and calories out! There are many other factors involved in the process such as the neuroendocrine response to dieting, alteration in metabolism, variation in sensitivity to insulin, psychological and socioeconomic factors.
The goal is to make it easier for you and your body to burn fat and lose weight while getting all the nutrients you need. The diet is based on a combination of low glycemic index and load diet with the healthy Mediterranean diet. This combination helps you burn fat and minimizes the hormonal responses that often lead to overeating. You will be taking control back of your eating!
The “dietrophy” tools that will be used, based on the latest scientific evidence for best outcome, include:
- Nutrition education
- Goal setting and re-evaluation
- Personalized meal plan
- Shopping list of appropriate foods
- Recipes
- Follow-up, support and guidance
