At NAS Integrative Health, we have a special interest in metabolic health, recognizing its critical role in overall well-being. Metabolic health is the foundation of many bodily functions and its dysregulation can be the underlying concern for numerous ailments prevalent today. Many individuals suffer from metabolic conditions such as diabetes and fatty liver disease, which can lead to heart disease and other serious health issues, significantly impacting quality of life. We understand that a wide range of symptoms our patients experience may stem from these underlying metabolic disorders.

​

Metabolic conditions encompass a variety of common health issues. Diabetes, characterized by the body's inability to regulate blood sugar levels, can lead to complications like neuropathy, kidney damage, and cardiovascular disease. Fatty liver disease, often linked to obesity and insulin resistance, can progress to liver inflammation, fibrosis, and cirrhosis. Metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions including high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol levels, increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

​

Naturopathic medicine offers a holistic approach to managing and improving metabolic health. Our goal is to get to the root cause of seemingly unrelated symptoms by thoroughly investigating metabolic health. Through comprehensive lab testing and a detailed assessment of signs and symptoms, we identify and address the fundamental issues affecting your health. By focusing on these core problems, we aim to improve your metabolic health and enhance your overall quality of life with personalized, effective treatment plans.

​

Naturopathic interventions for metabolic health may include dietary modifications, emphasizing whole foods that stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce inflammation. Herbal medicine can support metabolic functions, such as using berberine for blood sugar control or milk thistle for liver health. Lifestyle changes, including regular physical activity and stress management techniques, are also integral components of our approach. Additionally, nutritional supplementation can correct deficiencies and support metabolic pathways.

​

By addressing metabolic health with these naturopathic methods, NAS Integrative Health aims to not only alleviate symptoms but also prevent the progression of metabolic disorders. Our comprehensive, personalized treatment plans are designed to restore balance and improve overall well-being, empowering our patients to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
