Appetite Suppressants
Weight loss isn’t always easy. For patients who struggle with chronic overeating or have a large amount of weight to lose, adding a prescription appetite suppressant is sometimes recommended. Especially in the early days of a weight loss program, this can be an effective tool while adjusting to your new diet and lifestyle.
If you are a candidate for this therapy, your medical weight loss doctor will choose an appropriate prescription appetite suppressant for you. They are best used short term in conjunction with a healthy diet and appropriate exercise routine.
Appetite suppressants will help you feel full, removing the frustration of drastic calorie reduction and elimination of addictive processed foods from your diet. Hunger cues in the brain are quieted, allowing you to stay focused on your weight loss journey.
Nutritional Supplements
Losing weight requires proper nutrition and a healthy balance of vitamins and minerals. Even with a healthy diet, adding key supplements is essential to boosting your weight loss efforts. Nutrition is enhanced, putting your body in peak condition.
Probiotics
Years of overeating and excessive consumption of sugar and carbohydrates can create imbalance in your gut. When your gut is out of balance, digestion and metabolism are slowed. Probiotics bring things back in to balance, feeding your body with good bacteria that heals the gut and improves digestion.
EPA-DHA Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Omega 3 Fatty Acids- commonly found in oily fish like tuna, salmon, and sardines- is important to reducing inflammation in the body and decreasing triglycerides. Because consuming large amounts of these fish puts you at risk for unhealthy mercury exposure, we offer a supplement that is mercury free and highly effective. Providing benefits to your cardiovascular health, mood stabilization, healthy blood lipids, and overall health.
