With low testosterone being linked to such illnesses as cardiovascular disease and now Parkinson’s disease, aging men across the country are clamoring for an effective and inexpensive way to test testosterone levels. Beginning in their mid-twenties, men experience a decline of testosterone by up to 2 percent annually until death. This is commonly referred to as andropause, or sometimes referred to as male menopause. Andropause is a result of low testosterone levels throughout the body with symptoms including a decrease in muscle strength and endurance, a lack of energy and motivation, a noticeable decrease in sex drive, and less frequent or strong erections.

Even when dieters are successful with their weight loss ventures, it is important to have a weight management professional around to ensure that they are receiving proper nutrients, are able to remain healthy and are successful in sustaining their weight over time. When creating their prescription hormone diet plans, Diet Doc considered this principle and, in response, employed a network of specially trained and licensed physicians, nurses and certified nutritionists to closely monitor each patient’s weight loss progress. Depending on their personal needs, dieters will follow a diet enhanced with protein shakes that are designed to suppress the appetite and allow for a comfortable transition to a slimmer figure. And, because there can be some concern over essential elements and minerals when following a vegan diet, Diet Doc’s weight management experts work closely with patients to ensure that they are receiving the nutrients they need.

To those who have struggled to take off unhealthy and unwanted excess weight, surgery, such as gastric bypass, may appear to be an attractive and simple solution. However, prior to committing to this invasive and oftentimes risky surgery, Diet Doc believes that patients should be thoroughly educated and aware of the process, procedure, recovery process and realistic weight loss expectations.

Researchers from Emory University in Atlanta, GA conducted a study that was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, suggesting that children who are overweight or obese by kindergarten are four times more likely to be obese in eighth grade, compared with their normal-weight counterparts.

It may seem like a person who sleeps less because of sleep disorders would burn more calories because they are awake and moving around, but new research suggests just the opposite. In their study, researchers with the University of Pennsylvania found that extra eating among sleep-deprived individuals appeared to significantly contribute to weight gain. Whether sleep deprivation is caused by certain sleep disorders or stress, fewer hours of sleep has been connected directly to extra calorie consumption and is greater than the additional calories burned while being awake longer. Diet Doc’s hCG diets have helped thousands of patients achieve their best weight loss by addressing each patient’s personal causes of weight gain, such as overeating, medical issues and sleep disorders.

Researchers from the University of California in Los Angeles are exploring changes in diet as one potential intervention for the growth of tumors in the prostate. Results of their study suggest that men who consumed a healthy, low-fat diet, complemented with Omega-3 Fish Oil, demonstrated changes in the aggression of their prostate cancer with slower growth of cancer cells, as well as changes in the composition of the cell membranes, than those men who consumed a higher-fat Western diet.

Hormonal imbalance can play a key role in weight loss, often causing unhindered weight gain, regardless of calories consumed. What most are unaware of is that an undetected hormone imbalance can be the missing link – sabotaging a person’s hard work to stay slim. Hormones are key players in regulating weight, metabolism, blood sugar, insulin, and when and where the body stores fat. As the body ages, shifting hormones trigger numerous symptoms of imbalance – including unexplained weight gain. For those clients who wish to test their hormone profiles that are linked to weight management, Diet Doc now offers new hormone testing kits delivered directly to the client’s home.

Diet Doc’s prescription hCG diet plans were designed to help dieters nationwide lose weight quickly and also improve their overall weight-related health. But, Diet Doc understands that each dieter requires unique assistance in reaching their weight loss goals; therefore, they create personalized diet plans based on each patient’s age, gender, health history, and lifestyle preferences. Using healthy recipes and prescription hCG treatments, Diet Doc is able to help dieters across the nation quickly lose weight, with some dieters losing up to almost a pound of excess, embarrassing fat per day. And, dieters with specific health care needs are able to have those issues addressed as part of their diet program. For instance, Diet Doc recently revealed their cholesterol diet that, in addition to helping dieters lose weight, also helps them lower their levels of unhealthy cholesterol.

Ketones are formed when glycogen stores in the liver have run out. Ketosis is a condition in which levels of ketones (ketone bodies) in the blood are elevated. Ketones are small carbon fragments that are the fuel created by the breakdown of fat stores. Thus, as the patient loses weight, progress and internal bodily balance can be measured by the amount of ketones found in the urine. During a keto diet, the dieter usually experiences less hunger, despite lower caloric intake, due to willingness of the body to access stored fat during ketosis. During a keto diet, patients consume much fewer carbohydrates, so the body transitions from using carbs as fuel to burning trapped fat stores instead. The result is the often overwhelming ability of the body to release trapped fat deposits in the most troubling areas like thighs, belly, underarms, and hips.

Everyone could use a little more energy to get them through the day, but now dieters across the country can increase their energy levels while achieving rapid weight loss. With their new healthy weight diet plans, Diet Doc’s network of specially trained and licensed physicians recommend and prescribe rapid weight loss supplements enhanced with b12 vitamins that boost energy, prevent fatigue and speed up metabolism to help burn calories.
