How You Can Lose Weight Effortlessly
Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is about more than diet. Transform your metabolic health with education and support of a health professional. With the right knowledge, maintaining your ideal body weight can be easy, effortless and fun.
As they say, there are many ways to skin a cat, everyone is different so different interventions work for different individuals and we will be looking at the lower carb way with Dr Nelum Dharmapriya.
Nelum is a GP based in Brisbane who started a metabolic health program to help her patients lose weight and regain health and vitality. She is a lovely export from the UK and through her own health journey, takes an interesting approach to weight loss.
Nelum is passionate about improving the health and wellbeing of her patients through nutrition and lifestyle. Her own health journey has inspired her to learn all she can on this subject. This has lead to a deep understanding of the key role that the hormone insulin plays in weight regulation, metabolic health and in the pathogenesis of nearly all chronic disease. She is a strong advocate of an effortless way to sustain a healthy lifestyle by reversing insulin resistance.
