Dr. Anthony's Personal Weight Loss Journey with Blueprint Nutrition

Dr. Anthony's Personal Weight Loss Journey with Blueprint Nutrition

Dr. Casen is joined by Dr. Anthony who shares his weight loss journey over the past year (it was time to make a video, since many of our patients have taken notice!).

Thirty pounds down, Dr. Anthony applauds Blueprint Nutrition's "Trust Your Gut" program as the catalyst to helping him begin this weight loss journey, and provides a brief example of the plan, as well as his FIT Test results.

Both Blueprint's "Trust Your Gut" and FIT Test are available at our Westlake practice - and we recommend talking with your healthcare provider before beginning any weight loss plan of action.

Our Top 5 Keys to Weight Loss

Happy 2020, Everyone! 

We are so excited to partner with you on your health journey this year, and what a better way to begin than discussing simple ways to help you lose weight and detoxify. Please watch the video below, and if you would like a PDF handout, please go to the bottom of the blog: 

5 Keys

-Eat the Best Food: If you don’t put the right fuel in your body you don’t get the right outcome.

A. The top foods to avoid: sugar (or things that turn to sugar in your body), dairy, and grains. (Inflammation causers)

-Become Calorie Conscious:  It is not necessary to count each calorie but to cut out additional “fru fru” calories.

-Make Exercise Fun: Doing some sort of exercise for 20-60 minutes every day is vital for weight loss.

-Breakfast is the Key Meal: Begin your day with a protein.

-Discipline: Stay away from things that you know don’t promote health in your body. 

Top 5 keys to Detoxification

1. Detox starts with your LIVER: The liver is the key organ for detoxification

Signs of liver being compromised: enlarged liver on X-ray, skin challenges, age spots, bronzing on the cheeks, dark circles under eyes, cry easy, bad body odor, fatigue, brain fog, prostate or hormonal challenges.

2. Environmental toxins: Our environment is very toxic, air is polluted, food sources have preservatives and are sprayed with herbicides and pesticides, household cleaning products, chlorine, and fluorine.  A recent study in The Journal Nature has 90% of cancers are caused by DIET and ENVIRONMENTAL TOXINS.

3. Staying away from fruit/fructose: it is the hardest sugar for the liver to remove.

4. Gets rid of excess estrogen in the body: increased estrogen in men and women will lead to health challenges and cancer.

5. Water: water helps our bodies eliminate toxins.  – drinking ½ your body weight in ounces of water each day is the goal.

What Is the Drugless Detox?  

This is a program that was designed in order to help clean up liver and digestive tract function.  It is composed of three products.  

Bio-Detox Packs – this is a group of 10 products designed to clean up liver function.  

Nutriclear is a very effective way to help clean up the liver and promote healing in the digestive tract. 

Pea Protein allows the building blocks for new growth in the body.  This is a program that is designed to be done in 10 days (3 detox packs a day) or in 30 days (1 pack a day).  We have had members continue this on for 1-3 months because of how terrific they felt!

Detox Program

Bio-Detoxification is designed to reduce your body’s load of toxic substances, which may be present from either external sources (drugs, chemicals, alcohol) or your own physiological activities (bacterial toxins, intestinal toxins, metabolic byproducts). By following this program, you will eliminate many food and metabolic toxins for allergens, and achieve more “healthy” function and vitality.

Benefits of doing detox: increase immune function, increase liver function which is important for weight loss and hormonal function, improved mental cognition, improved energy, improved digestion, decreased joint and body pain.

What should I eat during the detoxification program?  Focus on proteins and vegetables and work on eliminating fruits, grains, gluten, and sugar.  Make sure to drink plenty of water during your detoxification process.

Q. Should I expect any side effects?

A. Individual response to cleansing programs is highly variable due to personal differences in biochemical makeup, stress levels, toxin build-up, and medical histories. Individuals sometimes experience headaches, joint pain, mood swings, constipation or other side effects. These side effects are commonly associated with cleansing programs and usually dissipate within a week to 10 days. Notify your healthcare professional if you develop any adverse symptoms, or encounter discomfort while using this product.

Important Factors to Consider

Water – Drinking the proper amount of water helps our body get rid of the toxins that the body is working on excreting.  A good benchmark is to consume half of our body weight in ounces of water every day

Eat Right – It is important to consume foods that allow our body to detoxify properly which means focusing on vegetables and proteins and decreasing fruits, sugar, and gluten.

Rest – Especially when going through a period of detoxification it is important for our bodies to get at the very minimum 8 hours of sleep at night so our body can process the toxins it is eliminating

Decrease exposure to environmental, industrial, and household chemicals.  These chemicals get stored in our body and have many harmful effects on the body and nervous system.

Exercise- movement is life.  Have a pattern of everyday exercise for yourself- this will promote elimination of toxins.

#NoMeds Story: Weight Loss & More!

We love being able to help people everyday, and this week's #NoMeds story (practice member testimonial) comes from Gay:

“I first saw Dr Bob at a Mustard Seed seminar and was so impressed that I now drive 45 minutes each way to get my adjustments and nutritional help. I have several issues that the doctors are helping me with. My main reason for coming to see Dr Bob was for help to lose weight and little did I know that he would help me with my scoliosis and arthritis problems as well as keeping my blood pressure within a normal range. It all has to work together for the best results and I have been moving forward. I have learned so much and hope to continue to learn. And I truly enjoy seeing all three doctors as I feel that I can relate to each of them. What a joy to receive and learn so much from these great and knowledgeable people.” - Gay

We love responses like this and would love to help you, too! If you are interested in chiropractic and natural care, please contact us here for our Westlake and Elyria practices.

What Does Fat Look Like?

Have you ever wondered what fat looks like when it's outside of your body? Dr. Anthony gives us an example and then shares preliminary steps to help in your weight loss plan. If you are considering a plan to lose weight, visit this blog on The Drugless Diet, and watch this testimonial from one of our practice members.

For more information, please contact us to come visit our chiropractic and nutrition practice in either Westlake or Elyria.

The Drugless Diet: Water

One of the best starting points to begin a weight loss and cleansing protocol is to drink water from a pure source. In this quick video, Dr. Casen shares how much water you should drink per day. For more information on water, go here, and for more information on The Drugless Diet, go here.



The Drugless Diet

Each new year brings about intent to start fresh. That might mean doing your best to become healthier and to lose weight. Our office over the past few years has started each year with "The Drugless Diet" and we are now offering it on our website for the first time.

The diet provides you with the accountability of knowing one of our doctors will be reviewing your diet and fitness journals each week, helping you to make the appropriate changes to promote a healthier you. Currently, this program is only offered on-site at our Westlake and Elyria practice. Here is a run-down of what The Drugless Diet includes:

1. Initial Assessment: We develop an outline and strategy for you. This includes weight, pictures, tracking devices or halc pre and post test, BMI, waist measurement, and fat body analyzer.

2. Weekly diet and fitness journal reviews: This allows us to track your progress.

3. Welcome Packet: Includes information on what to eat, when to exercise, and helpful troubleshooting points for your weight loss.

4. Ending Assessment & Consultation: Weight, picture, BMI, waist measurement, and fat-body analyzer.

Benefits

We have seen multiple benefits to our practice members who have participated in this program besides the weight loss element. Some of these include increased energy, more self-esteen, regular bowel movements, increased libido, and more.

The retail value for The Drugless Diet is over $1500, but the importance of changing your life is also important to us, which is why we are offering the program at only $250 to our current practice members and $450 to non-practice members.

Please contact us for more information, so we can help you have your healthiest year yet!
