This section looks at the production of and sensitivity to the 3 main hormones adiponectin, leptin and ghrelin, which control the rate of the metabolism, food cravings and hunger. It also looks at how the central nervous system impacts lipogenesis, the formation of fat from food, as well as examining the genetic influence on thermogenesis. Finally it helps discover whose metabolism is best with intermittent fasting and whose requires 3 meals a day and creates an individualized dietary and supplemental protocol to maximize metabolic function.

Response and handling of carbohydrates with specific carbohydrate allowances per meal and supplemental protocols to improve handling of carbohydrates.

Response and handling of fats with specific grams of allowed fats per meal and supplemental protocols to improve handling of saturated fats.

Response and handling of protein with specific grams of protein allowed per meal, along with timing and number of meals per day.

Response and handling of dairy products with specific suggestions on how much dairy may be allowed.

Dopamine production, transportation and breakdown and supplemental protocols to optimize dopamine function.

Serotonin production, transportation and breakdown and supplemental protocols to optimize serotonin function.

HPA axis function and stability, production and degradation of stress hormones and supplemental protocols to regulate stress hormone production and function.

Chronic HPA axis function and stability, production and degradation of stress hormones and supplemental protocols to regulate stress hormone production and function.

A look at circadian rhythms, the ability to transition from one stage of sleep to the next, the time spent in deep stage 4 sleep and the strength of the wake/sleep cycle.

A look at the production and regulation of TSH and the conversion of T4 into T3 to help determine the strength and functioning of the thyroid and ability to utilize medications.

A look at the production and regulation of TSH and the conversion of T4 into T3 to help determine the strength and functioning of the thyroid and ability to utilize medications.

What type of resistance exercise is beneficial or harmful in terms of oxygenation, weight loss, inflammation and recovery and supplemental protocols to maximize resistance training.

Analyzes tissue degradation and repair to minimize injury risk and improve recovery. Supplemental protocols to maximize healing and inhibit tissue breakdown included.

Analyzes immune response to better manage allergies, infections, auto-immune disorders and inflammatory disease and supplemental protocols to support and moderate the immune response.

Examines the production of inflammatory mediators contributing to disease risk and supplemental protocols to moderate the inflammatory response.

These 2 sections look at the body’s ability to identify, modify and clear toxins, hormones and medications from the body. Supplemental protocols to regulate both phases of detoxification included.

Absorption, transportation and utilization of important vitamins and minerals including methylation factors and the corresponding supplemental protocols included.
