Metabolic concerns can sneak up on us. We may not even notice that they are happening, or know to consider them. Metabolic concerns include everything to do with weight, cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and your endocrine organs. Naturopathy can support metabolic concerns and other connected systems.
These include:
High Blood Pressure
Type II Diabetes
Dyslipidemia (high cholesterol)
Fatty Liver Disease
Cirrhosis
Weight Management
Kidney function
And more
Diet and lifestyle play a significant role in metabolic conditions, and they are typically what leads a person towards imbalance. Improved diet and lifestyle, including therapeutic diet, will be part of treatment, but there are likely other areas to be addressed. These include hormonal imbalances, poor elimination pathways and toxic burden.
