Metabolic Testing

Metabolism is one of the most important components that play a role in body weight.  Metabolism varies among individuals depending on age, gender, genetics, muscle mass, and physical activity.  Knowing your individual metabolic rate is a great asset to reaching your weight loss goals safely and obtaining a healthy body weight.

HealthPlus has the ability to measure your metabolism through a handheld device (Medgem) which measures oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production, thus accurately measuring your resting metabolic rate (RMR).  RMR is the rate at which you burn calories at a resting state while performing involuntary activities. RMR combined with your unique lifestyle and exercise routine will tell you how many calories you need in a day to meet your weight management needs.
 
The test takes about 10 minutes and is followed by a 20 minute consultation.  A print out of calorie needs and nutrient information is provided immediately following the test.
