Weight & Metabolic Health Panel

Focused

The Weight and Metabolic Health Panel focuses on the hormones and metabolic markers that directly influence body weight, appetite, fat storage, and energy expenditure.

2What Your Body May Be Telling You

When you are doing everything right but still gaining weight or unable to lose it, the answer is rarely willpower. Your thyroid may be underperforming, slowing your metabolism without you knowing. Your insulin could be elevated, telling your body to store fat instead of burning it. The hunger hormone leptin may have stopped working properly, leaving you feeling hungry even when your body has plenty of energy stored. Cortisol, your stress hormone, can single-handedly promote fat storage around your midsection, increase appetite, disrupt sleep, and impair thyroid function. These are not separate problems -- they are interconnected metabolic signals. Testing them together reveals the full picture of why your body is holding onto weight.
