What is metabolic health?
Your metabolism is your body’s way of turning food into energy. We need this energy to do everything from breathing to thinking to moving.
Metabolism involves a series of fine-tuned chemical processes. When these processes are running smoothly, they supply our cells with all the energy they need to work and stay healthy.
When you define metabolic health, it’s about more than reaching a healthy weight – metabolic health also means you have healthy levels of:
- body fat and lean muscle mass
- blood glucose (blood sugar)
- blood fats (triglycerides)
- cholesterol
- blood pressure
Wondering how to improve your metabolic health?
A healthy metabolism involves a balancing act between building up your tissues and energy stores and breaking them down to fuel body functions.
Getting this balance right can help you to have good metabolic health.
Good metabolic health can lower your risk of many chronic health conditions and help you stay healthy throughout life.
At our Perth metabolic health clinic, we use medical grade devices to measure your metabolism. We use this data – and a scientifically proven approach to boosting metabolic function – to design a dietary and exercise program specifically for you.
Improving metabolic health: How the program works
Our highly trained exercise physiologists will work closely with you to understand your metabolism and optimise it to burn fat, produce energy, and improve your health.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to how our metabolic health program works.
Step 1. Metabolic health assessment
First, we take a look at your markers of metabolic health, including the usual things like your weight, waist circumference and blood test results.
But the key to unlocking your body’s fat burning ability involves understanding your metabolism at a cellular level.
To do this, we use world-first, clinically proven technology called ECAL – a portable metabolic monitor that gathers information about your:
-
- daily energy needs at rest
- how this energy is being produced (from fat or carbohydrate)
- how efficiently your cells use oxygen to produce energy.
ECAL assessment is easy, non-invasive and painless – you simply breathe into the device for about 8 minutes and it analyses your metabolic health markers.
ECAL technology was previously only available to elite athletes and academics. Now we can use it to get information about your personal metabolic profile and how to optimise your metabolic function.
Step 2. Program design
Programs last from 8 to 16 weeks. Throughout, you’ll receive support from your exercise physiologist, including:
-
- help with setting realistic, meaningful and achievable goals
- accountability, tips and encouragement to help you stay on track
- advice to help you make small, sustainable lifestyle changes that support better health.
Step 3. Review and results
Throughout your program, we’ll retest your metabolic health. Not only will you learn how your weight and body composition have changed, you’ll get to see how your body is learning to burn fat better through dietary and lifestyle changes.
Our clinical programs are designed to complement medical management. We work closely with your doctor and other health professionals to help you get the best possible results.
