Comprehensive Private Nutrition Counseling: 
During the initial one hour appointment I will evaluate your health and nutrition history.  We will discuss current nutritional supplements and the best choices for health and balance.  In addition, we will review your current exercise regimen and I will make suggestions for the future.  Most importantly, we will address your overall nutrition and wellness goals and priorities.  You will receive a customized food and nutritional supplement plan.  You will also get shopping lists and supportive information to help get started on the path
 to “Optimal Health.”  This is our starting point.

Follow- Up Nutrition Appointments: 
These 30 minute sessions are helpful to keep you motivated and on track to reach your goals and be accountable.  We can also make any necessary adjustments to your current plan during these sessions. 

Nutrition Follow- Up Appointment Packages:
These are 30 minute sessions that can be scheduled as needed.  You can stay focused and save money through purchasing packages.

Metabolic Testing:
This is a simple 5-10 minute breath test that is performed in my office to obtain your Resting Metabolic Rate/RMR.  This number is the total number of calories that your body requires on a daily basis just to stay alive.  From this number I can determine your “Daily Calorie Target.” Your metabolism is unique and very revealing.  This number can be the key to proper weight management.

Comprehensive Therapeutic Weight Loss Program:
This program is suitable for those who have 15 or more pounds to lose.  It is a 4 phase weight loss program that is extremely results-oriented.  It is a perfect plan for those who have “Tried Everything!” Those with metabolic syndrome, blood sugar imbalances, high cholesterol, and/or high triglycerides will greatly benefit.  If you require any blood work or medical intervention you can work with Dr. Lori Izabal in the office.

On this 4 phase plan, you learn about healthy carbohydrates, proteins, and fats along the way.  By phase 4 you know how and what to eat to stay healthy for life.  Throughout all 4 phases you come to the office 2-4 times per month (no charge) to be weighed and measured and have any of your questions answered.

Detox/Cleansing Nutrition Protocol:
This one hour appointment is designed for the client who is interested in a natural “Clean Eating” plan that is both anti-inflammatory and free of common food allergens.  Cleansing your system of harmful toxins, pesticides, and bacteria as well as giving your digestive tract a rest will create a healthy internal environment.  This plan is very gentle yet highly effective.  You will start on the path to healthy eating with a reduction in cravings for unhealthy foods.  If you are at a weight loss plateau, this is also a great plan for you.  Repeat Detox clients receive a discount.

Your Detox supplements can be purchased during this appointment. 
Follow -up nutrition sessions post-Detox are highly recommended for continued success.

Family Nutrition: 
This one hour session is designed for parents who want to make sure that their children are eating well and forming healthy habits that will last a lifetime.
