METABOLIC TESTING EXCLUSIVE TO NUTRITION FOR LIFE HEALTHCARE – NEWSTEAD CLINIC
Metabolism is as unique as your fingerprint and can be affected by factors such as age, body composition, hormone function, physical activity levels and diet. Therefore, understanding your metabolism – how your body produces and consumes energy – is the key to improving your overall health and wellbeing.
Obesity, diabetes, PCOS, thyroid issues, fatty liver, fatigue and infertility, are just some of the common health issues associated with a poor metabolism. Metabolic health isn’t just about losing weight or reversing chronic disease, it has a wide range of benefits including feeling younger, better sleep and reduced pain.
