About

For hundreds of years, people have been struggling with their weight. But despite our best efforts, many of us find that we cannot seem to lose those extra pounds. Weight loss is more than just looking good, it’s about feeling good and being healthy. Being a healthy weight has been linked with lower risks for heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, some forms of cancer, and other health issues. There are many weight loss programs out there, but not all of them are created equal. So how do you choose the right one for you? 

At Pure Body Health, we believe that healthy weight loss should be about more than just a number on the scale. We focus on helping our clients not only to lose weight but also to maintain their ideal weight for years to come. Our program is designed to help you make lasting changes to your diet and lifestyle to keep the weight off for good. If you’re searching for a weight loss clinic in Tempe, Chandler and Gilbert, AZ, or a weight loss clinic in Phoenix, we can help. Call us at (480)-427-0442 or complete the online booking form to start your journey!

Why We Gain Weight

There are several reasons why we gain weight. For some people, it’s simply a matter of eating too much and not getting enough exercise. But for others, there may be underlying medical conditions that contribute to weight gain. 

These can include things like:

  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Thyroid problems
  • Insulin resistance
  • Psychological stress levels
  • Dietary history
  • Amount of quality sleep
  • Toxic chemical exposure (Eg, alcohol, tobacco, processed foods, medication side effects)
  • Pituitary gland disorders
  • Adrenal disorders

If you think you may suffer from one or more of these conditions, it’s important to address these issues to get the treatment you need to achieve a healthy body weight.

Benefits of Losing Weight

Many benefits come with losing weight. In addition to improving your health, you will also see a boost in your energy levels, mood, and self-esteem. You may even find that you sleep better and have more motivation to exercise. Extra weight is linked to many health conditions, including heart disease, stroke, arthritis, and type 2 diabetes. Losing weight can help to lower your risks for these conditions and improve your overall hormone balance and health.

We work with you every step of the way to make sure that you are successful in losing weight and keeping it off.

Understanding Your Metabolism

With so many diet fads and weight loss programs out there, it can be hard to know what methods of weight loss really work. The truth is, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to losing weight. What works for one person may not work for another. 

At Pure Body Health, we focus on helping our clients to improve their metabolism so that they can lose weight and keep it off for good. 

Diet trends may result in quick results, but most often, the results are temporary, and you regain the weight. Clinical evidence suggests that fad diets, such as low-calorie or high-fat diets, can be harmful. When a diet is too extreme, it may contribute to metabolism slowing down. This means that your body becomes less efficient at burning fat and calories. As a result, you may find it more difficult to lose weight and keep it off in the long term.

Ways To Improve Your Metabolism and Lose Weight

The good news is that it is possible to improve your metabolism and lose weight for good. We will help you understand your body and how it responds to food, exercise, and outside stresses. 

Some of the ways you can heal your body and keep weight off are:

Healthy Diet. One of the best things you can do for your metabolism is to eat a balanced lean protein diet. This means eating a variety of healthy foods including protein, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, plenty of vegetables, and some fruit.

Supplementation. In some cases, herbal remedies and supplements can help boost your metabolism. Vitamin B12 is essential for energy production and fat metabolism, and it can be difficult to get enough of this vitamin if you don’t eat meat or poultry. We offer B12 injections as part of our weight loss program to help increase your energy levels and metabolism.

Stress Management. Stress can be a major factor in weight gain and difficulty losing weight. When you are stressed, your body produces more of the hormone cortisol. This hormone can increase your appetite and make you crave sugary and high-fat foods. It can also lead to emotional eating. We work with you so you can manage your stress in a healthy way to control cortisol levels and avoid emotional eating. 

Quality Sleep. The health benefits of proper sleep are unmatched. Studies show that people who do not get enough sleep are more likely to be overweight or obese. This is because sleep deprivation can lead to increased levels of the hormone ghrelin and a decrease in leptin, which increases appetite.

Exercise. Physical activity is an important part of any weight loss program and should be a daily habit. It helps to boost your metabolism and burn calories. We will work with you to create an exercise plan tailored to your needs and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should you never do to lose weight?

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to losing weight, but there are some things you should never do if you want to lose weight and keep it off. Don’t follow fad diets, starve yourself, over-exercise if in poor health, neglect your sleep, or forget to supplement your diet.

What is the best way to lose weight?

The best way to lose weight is to follow a healthy, balanced diet and exercise regularly. This will help you to boost your metabolism and burn more calories. 

Can a naturopathic doctor help with belly fat?

Yes, a naturopathic doctor can help you to lose belly fat. To begin, our doctors will help you determine the underlying causes of your weight issues. Treating weight problems in this manner can help you maintain not only a healthy weight but also address other health concerns.

How do I know if my metabolism is damaged?

There are a few signs that your metabolism may not be functioning well. If you have difficulty losing weight, feel tired all the time, or have trouble sleeping, these could be signs that your metabolism is not working as it should.  Lab work can provide more detailed information as well.

How long does it take to heal your metabolism?

There is no one answer to this question as everyone’s body is different. Anything that lowers stress hormones and reestablishes neuroendocrine balance will assist in healing your metabolism. However, with the help of our naturopathic doctors, you can start seeing results within a few weeks to a couple of months.
