Weight Management


INTRODUCTION


The Kohana Weight Management Program is designed to assist people in managing (or losing) weight in a safe and effective manner.

The most successful weight management programs contain these five "building blocks" of success:
  • Diet
  • Exercise
  • Detoxification (If indicated)
  • Supplementation
  • Nutritional
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Hormone Balance (Addition of Bio-Identical Hormones When Indicated)

  • The three key "elements" for success are:
  • Desire
  • Effort
  • Accountability

  • Laboratory Evaluations:


    Prior to beginning any comprehensive and safe weight management program, a basic evaluation of specific organ functionality and level of toxicity should be assessed. When one loses weight, toxins are released into our bodies. The liver is called upon to eliminate these toxins. Without an optimally functioning liver, weight loss can cause unpleasant symptoms.

    In addition to assessing liver function, we evaluate thyroid and adrenal function to gain better insight into how the body is acting as a whole. Our program is most effective when the body is in balance.

    We use only certified laboratories that, in most cases, will have your results in a few short days.

    The Kohana Weight Management Program strives to achieve maximum success by working with you! We will help:
  • Design a specific plan for you...
  • Assess food choices
  • Track weight changes...
  • Review exercise progress...
  • Provide "cutting-edge" products to assist you reach your goals...

  • Our Products:

    Homeopathic HCG by the Skrenes Research Group:

    The use of HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) has been shown to allow the body to burn fat during caloric restriction without using (burning) muscle first.

    Homeopathic remedies in general, are safer than prescription medications. Homeopathics are regulated by the FDA and should be taken under the supervision of a Physician or Pharmacist.

    The Homeopathic HCG by the Skrenes Research Group has shown to be successful in cases without extreme caloric restriction.

    FatMetab® by the Skrenes Research Group:

    FatMetab® allows the liver to process (and eliminate) toxins released from the loss of fat*. FatMetab contains ingredients to both "boost" liver function as well as detoxify the body*. This process of detoxification results in more energy as well!

    YES® by Your Essential Supplements:
    Supplementation with the PROPER Omega oils is essential for cell membrane health and weight management*. The fish oil "fad" is unfounded and may actually be harmful. The source of fish oils may be tainted (containing high levels of Mercury, etc.) and, the oil itself can inhibit cell membranes from allowing insulin entry into cells, especially when taken in excess!

    The YES supplement contains the parent compound of Omega-3 oil (Linoleic Acid), which is converted in the body to the proper amount of Omega-3 oil that the body needs.

    The proper balance of oils in the body will facilitate the utilization of nutrients taken in through the diet.

    Vitamin B12
    Vitamin B12 is involved in the metabolism of every cell in the body. It is critical for DNA synthesis and energy production.

    Vitamin B12 assists in the absorption of sublingual HCG.

    Benagene®
    Benagene®, Oxaloacetic Acid, helps mimic caloric restriction (a critical component of the HCG diet). Acts as a powerful antioxidant, protects Mitochondrial DNA and provides Glucose System Support*.

    This allows our diet plan to work effectively without extreme caloric reduction (500 calories/day) as recommended by Dr. A.T.W Simeons.

    Additional benefits of our program include liver detoxification and lowering of blood pressure!*
