Nutritional Counseling

Nutritional and Lifestyle Counseling has long been an important staple in our integrative approach to medicine at the Alliance Institute for Integrative Medicine. 

Dr. Liz Woolford is certified practitioners of First Line Therapy™. By assessing your body composition through Bioimpedance Analysis, we can calculate your metabolic rate, assess your body fat and water distribution. Our physicians may also offer specific cutting edge functional lab tests to determine what nutrients you need.  These include vitamin and nutrient testing as well as food sensitivities.

Then our physicians will make specific recommendations for you. They will develop lifestyle, diet and supplement programs tailored to your needs, and then monitor your progress.  This approach has been shown to be much safer than surgical solutions such as lapband and gastric bypass procedures. It also addresses visceral fatty changes not just subcutaneous fat.  Visceral fat correlates directly with risk for Metabolic Syndrome, Type II diabetes and heart disease to name a few.

Seeing and feeling the results is a health-altering experience.
