Want to improve performance? Want more energy? Want better health?
Want to feel better? Want to lose weight? Want to think clearer? Want to function at your best?
All these may be possible with eating right for your nutritional (metabolic) type. Everybody is unique and different in how they process foods. We’ll use athletes as an example. Many athletes load up on carbohydrates for races and many have great energy; therefore, great races, while many others feel slow, sluggish, bloated or lethargic after eating similar foods. Foods cause different responses in different people. Consider the group of 3-4 ladies who try to lose weight together. They work out together and eat the same diets, but only one or two lose weight while the others maintain or even gain weight. I hear it often in my practice. These are only a couple of reasons to eat right for your nutritional (metabolic) type. The Atkins, South Beach, Zone, Alkaline/ Acid and Blood Type Diets all work FOR SOME PEOPLE. The “Eat Right For Your Metabolic Type” nutritional analysis is specific to each person. It determines what foods would be the best for you. It takes into consideration your physical characteristics, your psychological traits and your dietary responses, to determine how you break down foods and how you utilize food for energy. Along with the typing report we do blood testing with the MRT (Mediator Release Test) to determine food sensitivities that cause inflammation in the body. Everybody breaks down fats, proteins and carbohydrates at different rates and utilizes them differently to produce ATP (the body’s energy source). The metabolic typing analysis will determine what foods are right for you and in what ratios to eat them in. Food is made to give the body energy. Therefore, when we eat, we should have great energy…if we eat the right foods for our bodies. Metabolism, by definition, refers to all the physical and chemical processes in the body that create and use energy to sustain life, such as:
- Digesting food and nutrients
- Eliminating waste through urine and feces
- Breathing
- Circulating blood
- Controlling body temperature
- Contracting muscles
- Functioning of the brain and nerves
If our metabolism is working at its optimum, then we should function at our optimum. It just makes sense. Metabolic Typing explains how someone can eat organic foods, take the best supplements money can buy, exercise regularly, get enough sleep and still not feel well. If you eat the right foods and take the right supplements for your metabolic type you can get a great start on your way to optimal health and performance.
