| You know you’ll be healthier when you lose weight. But
to lose weight, it helps to be healthier!
For many people, weight loss can be much more difficult because
of untreated hormone imbalance, allergies and immune
problems, food sensitivity, toxicity or other
causes.
The good news? Professionals can diagnose how your body
may be blocking weight loss. And there are science-based treatments
to help you get healthier while you’re losing weight.
That approach – and a medically supervised program based
on your individual needs – can put you on the path to your
perfect weight in as little as 12 weeks. The result will
take longer than any diet, but this time you’ll be able
to get there and stay there…
HORMONES AND YOUR WEIGHT
The most telltale sign that a hormonal imbalance is playing a
role in your weight gain is a roll of fat at your waistline that
you can’t lose.
Dry hair, feeling bloated and reduced physical and mental low
energy – often associated with weight gain – are also
correlated with hormonal imbalance. Reduced levels of thyroid
hormone and DHEA/Cortisol may significantly reduce metabolism
of fat cells, leading to fatigue, mood disorder (anxiety/depression)
and water retention.
A hormonal assessment can analyze levels of key hormones like
estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol and melatonin
– and their role in abnormal weight gain.
The right foods can help correct these imbalances, and a medical
professional can also determine if other treatments are needed.

YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM AND WEIGHT LOSS
The use of fertilizers, pesticides, dyes and other chemicals
in our foods can cause immune disruption.
Simple sugars and refined carbohydrates can result in too much
yeast and lead to “leaky gut syndrome,” immune system
problems and inflammation. The body may appear bloated due to
water retention, directly associated with cellulite production.
Inflammation is how our bodies protect us from infection and
injury. But the immune system can also over-respond and misdirect
inflammation because of stress, allergies and the wrong foods.
As well as controlling immune system effects on weight loss,
medical analysis can help protect you from other serious immune-related
health issues.

FOOD SENSITIVITIES AND WEIGHT LOSS
What you are eating, even healthy choices, may actually be contributing
to your weight gain.
For years, Naturopathic Physicians and a small number of other
healthcare professionals have been treating the food sensitivities
that can lead to imbalances in your body and result in weight
gain.
How do you find out what you are sensitive to and what foods
you can and should eat?
The ELISA blood test is a fast, accurate and simple way to determine
what foods you are sensitive to, and which foods you should eat
for optimal nutrition and, ultimately, weight loss.
New research in nutritional genomics is also now helping. DNA
samples can actually tell you what foods can reduce your health
risks and help you lose weight. Vitalia Health Care utilizes Genova
Diagnostics, a pioneer and leader in the field of functional laboratory
testing.

DETOXIFICATION IS KEY TO WEIGHT LOSS
Flushing out toxins from your system allows the body to function
at its best.
A couple of generations ago, our bodies could process what we
ate or inhaled. Now, chemicals in our environment can overwhelm
your system and even interfere with your body’s cells.
This overload of toxins is stored in fat cells, resulting in
fluid retention, hormonal imbalance, blood sugar swings, cravings
for sweets, low energy and the production of cellulite.
These modern industrial molecules can compromise your body’s
main detox centre – your liver – blocking its ability
to break down fat.
The foods you eat can help, or hinder, your body’s ability
to process toxins effectively. It’s also key to flush these
toxins out.
Detoxification allows your body to function at its best, getting
set to lose weight with improved energy, reduced water weight
and increased overall metabolism.

WHEN WEIGHT IS A WARNING SIGN
Weight gain can result from biochemical imbalances and poor nutrition.
But for some people, it may also signal other related health problems
It’s important to find out if your weight gain is related
to serious concerns such as diabetes.
A weight loss program can be a part of preventing or treating
these diseases. Sometimes, though, other treatment may be needed.
And, in some cases, a weight loss by itself could make the problem
worse.
Proper medical analysis can make sure you’re ready for
a weight loss program, and not leaving other dangerous conditions
untreated.

WEIGHT LOSS AND PROFESSIONAL CARE
Before beginning any weight loss program, it is important to
correct biochemical imbalances and make sure your body is ready
to start losing weight.
A medical professional can also check for other serious problems
that could be affecting your weight or even endangering your health.
Expert nutritional guidance – based on your individual
needs – will ensure you lose weight without losing energy.
A Nutritionist also helps you re-learn how to choose and cook
foods so you can continue to maintain weight loss throughout your
life.
While you’re losing weight, your body goes through numerous
changes. It’s smart to monitor those changes to ensure the
pace of weight loss is optimum. As well, breaking down fat can
release toxins into your body, and you may benefit from treatment
to remove these toxins
At Vitalia Health Care, your individualized weight loss program
is designed and guided by Dr. Tasreen Alibhai, a Naturopathic
Physician who specializes in weight loss, and Registered Nutritionist
