Weight & heart conditions we treat.

Diabetes, prediabetes, Insulin Resistance.

These three conditions refer to a group of conditions that affect how your body uses blood sugar (glucose), with the accompanying symptoms.

Our focus at Index Health for weight & heart health, is to help people improve their glucose and insulin numbers, but we also prioritize preventive testing, to help someone know if they are trending towards diabetes, many years ahead of time. We often use real time tracking devices, such as a continuous glucose monitor (or CGM), or ketone measuring devices.

Cholesterol Issues.

Understanding which cholesterol markers are important to know can be confusing, especially as it was thought that total cholesterol and LDL levels are the only things that matter.

Our team uses the most advanced markers to help you not only have a clear understanding of current risk level, but more importantly, what areas we need to target in your personalized lifestyle, nutrition, supplements, and medications on a need be, basis.

Heart Attack & Stroke Risk.

We believe it is our job to help you understand what your labs actually mean, in detail. As part of that, we use standardized calculators (such as Framingham risk calculator, Reynolds risk, Mesa risk), so you can clearly see the progress over time, and understand how it is potentially impacting your 10 year and lifetime risk of stroke.

Hypertension.

Hypertension is a condition that involves the long-term forces of blood exerted upon the walls of our blood vessels. It is a well understood primary risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and aneurysms.

While medications may be appropriate in some instances, we look for why a person has high blood pressure. Some commonly encountered reasons have to do with inaccurate understanding of beneficial nutrition plans, poor sleep or stress management habits, and suboptimal body composition, just to name a few.

How our weight and heart health program works.

01

Comprehensive heart health analysis from a physician.

We dedicate time to understanding your genetics, history, lifestyle, and goals. Combined with advanced lab tests other doctors don’t run, you get new, in-depth information about the root cause of your heart & weight-loss issues, and an integrative program to address it.

Root cause evaluation of risks and drivers.

We use advanced lab tests, data, and tools to build a detailed evaluation of your heart health, create a personalized plan targeting the root cause & risks, and aim for healthy, naturopathic weight loss.

What does your doctor screen for at the first meeting?

Potential nutrient deficiencies. Sensitivities, intolerances, and allergies to foods. Lifestyle factors contribute to fat buildup or toxin intake (exercise, smoking, drinking). Chronic infections or exposures (occupational, environmental, etc.). Related labs and medical history. Medications or supplement use. Family history.

Get a personalized weight & heart health plan.

The labs & screenings we use show whether you're on a path to becoming a diabetic, your heart disease and stroke risk within 10-15 years, & how to proactively plan for healthy, long-term weight loss & prevent future problems.

What’s in your personalized plan?

Personalized plans target your body risks and root cause drivers using nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplements to help you achieve optimal health.

Integrative nutrition plan & diet.

We help you learn how to eat in a way that sustains your body by equipping you and informing you of dietary factors that impact health, like sodium, fat, sugars, and more. Some of these dietary focuses may be: cardio-metabolic diet, nitric oxide boosting diet, low glycemic load, anti-inflammatory nutrition plans.

Lifestyle & movement plan.

Enjoyable forms of movement and healthy weight loss exercise to burn fat, stress management (yoga), sleep tracking (Oura ring), mental and emotional health management.

Supplements & medication.

We believe in a nutrition-first approach. As a policy, supplement recommendations are targeted entirely at the risk factors identified in the tests. Our doctors can prescribe medication and will do so on an as needed basis.

Tools that we use.

CGMs: Continuous glucose monitoring to understand how your body reacts to certain foods and glucose levels.

Remote EKG monitoring: Real-time EKG feedback that indicates if the heart is being strained during exercise (e.g., Apple Watch, FitBit, Fourth Frontier).

Home BP monitoring: Blood pressure trends and logs.

Traditional Approach

One size fits all.

Healthcare today can be summarized as a 10 minute consultations that inevitably ends in prescription medication—we know we can do better.

10 minute consultations.

Nowadays we gotten used to the 10 minute appointments which only end up treating the surface.

Band-aid approach.

A conventional protocol would prescribe a pill or supplement to solve your problems and symptoms, but that kind of quick treatment doesn't target the condition's root cause. Index Health won't mask your symptoms--we help you figure out exactly what is driving them to find relief.

No ongoing support.

The average clinic is barely there for you when you're sick. We're here for you when you need us--to prevent disease and plan for longevity.

Quick fixes.

We know that a healthy body doesn't happen overnight, and our approach will take effort, time, and willingness to change. If you are not ready to put in the time and effort to get lasting results, then Index Health is unlikely to be a good fit.
