In fact, the following key characteristics are unique to the FLT program: FLT is not just a weight loss program. Most programs are focused on weight while FLT is best used as a first line treatment for common, chronic health problems (e.g., high cholesterol, insulin resistance, unhealthy body composition). The FLT eating plan is different. Most programs are focused on low fat diets while FLT emphasizes the importance of a low-glycemic eating plan that is consistent with current research. FLT incorporates medical foods and nutritional supplements. The appropriate use of medical foods and supplements enhances program effectiveness and shortens the time it takes for you to achieve risk reduction goals. FLT has been demonstrated effective in human clinical studies. Most programs lack clinical evidence of effectiveness.

Getting Started — A Matter of Fat

In order to measure your progress, you first need to know your current health status. A variety of health assessments may be performed, including a quick, non-invasive measurement of your body fat and lean muscle mass. Excess body fat can greatly increase your health risks. But a higher ratio of muscle increases your metabolism and is associated with a lower incidence of illness. Improving your muscle-to-fat ratio is perhaps the most powerful tool in controlling the aging process and restoring vitality. And that's what FirstLine Therapy is all about. Call our office today to set up a 15 minute consultation to see if you are a good candidate for the FLT program. This consultation is $35 and if you decide to do the FLT program, that $35 will be applied to your program fee.
