During the subsequent few weeks, following a thorough medical evaluation, to include some additional screening tests a "Personalize Longevity Program" will be presented which will incorporate all of the information gained from these examinations and make appropriate recommendations.
Heart Attack and Stroke Prevention Program
Diet, Weight Loss and Nutrition Program - Our medical practice differs from most others in the community, in that we stress a predominately plant based diet with minimal animal fats and sugars to not only prevent disease but also to treat/cure your conditions. We will analyze your current eating habits, provide nutritional counseling guidelines and also provide you with the necessary tools to allow you to become healthier, often without the use of pharmaceuticals. This type of diet has often proven successful to treat and cure, diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerotic heart disease, and some forms of cancer.
Exercise Prescription and Program

Books and Support Materials - As part of our Longevity Program, various comprehensive reports and support materials are provided.

ADVANCED WELLNESS SCREENINGS

Body Composition Analysis - The core of our nutrition program is based on the information that we get from measuring your Body Composition using our GE DXA Bone Density Analyzer. This test accurately measures not only your % of body fat, but also the % of muscle and % of bone mass. It may be performed up to 2x/year to evaluate the changes that we expect during your transformation. Our Proprietary Software Interpretive Program calculates your Basal Metabolic Rate, Energy Consumption Needs, and provides an accurate Diet Calorie Recommendation. It is not covered by insurance.
Vascular Age Assessment – In trying to prevent a heart attack or a stroke, we will do a Carotid Intima Media Thickness Test which is a new screening non-invasive ultrasound image of your carotid arteries which looks for plaque and measures the thickness of the arterial wall which is an excellent predictor of arteriosclerosis. Our Proprietary Software Interpretive Program calculates your percentile ranking and vascular arterial age specific to your age, race and sex. It will be performed annually to monitor your progress in our program. It is not covered by insurance.
Bone Mineral Health Analysis - A Total Body Bone Analysis screening test will be preformed to determine the state of your bone health. It is not covered by insurance.
