Physician’s Guide: Using Blood Test Findings To Safely Induce Weight Loss

Physician’s Guide: Using Blood Test Findings To Safely Induce Weight Loss

Obese Americans now outnumber those who are merely overweight.Overlooked are a plethora of research findings indicating substantial fat-loss effects in response to the proper use of bioidentical hormones, certain prescription drugs, and nutrients, along with lifestyle changes. The reason these proven weight-loss strategies have not caught on is that when used in isolation, they often fail to meet the expectations of corpulent individuals. In this eye-opening report, Life Extension discusses how to interpret blood test results to utilize an armada of medications, natural hormones, and lifestyle alterations that can safely induce substantial and sustainable weight loss.

Critical Need For a Multi-Modal Approach to Combat ObesityMiddle-age people often ask why they amass so much body fat while eating less than when they were younger and thinner. Scientists have identifi ed biological factors to explain age-related weight gain, yet effective programs to restore youthful body contours remain elusive.

As We See It

As We See ItIn response to remarkable fat-loss results shown in human studies, Life Extension® introduced a nutrient called Irvingia in November 2008. Since then, Irvingia has become an enormously popular supplement, the latest Irvingia weight-loss trial has been published in a prestigious scientifi c journal, and the re-order rate for Irvingia is higher than any other product. Despite impressive clinical data and actual fat-loss results, Life Extension explains why it is not satisfied with Irvingia and what it is doing to rectify the issue.
