Did you know that rapid weight gain, unhealthy food cravings, difficulty in losing weight and obesity may all have underlying medical causes such as Leptin resistance?

Body Renewal offers a Medical Weight Loss Programme that uses HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) together with an eating plan to treat these causes of obesity.

Here are their nine unique benefits to consider when selecting your medical weight loss programme provider!

Ensuring you first consult with one of their qualified medical doctors enables them to identify and address any health problems that could potentially hamper your weight loss journey. Their doctors look out for your overall wellness while treating you.

They only use compounded bio-identical HCG prepared and sealed in a sterile laboratory by a qualified pharmacist, as is required by law. They do not prepare their own mixtures that could be potentially dangerous due to contamination and mixing in non-sterile conditions. Vials that are not sealed and stored in a refrigerator, as well as pre-filled syringes, may not have the correct effect on leptinsensitisation.

All patients are screened for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), blood sugar levels, hypertension, thyroid disease, as well as liver and gut conditions/dysbiosis (abnormal gut microbiota). Their doctors are aware of the importance of checking for any abnormal conditions to ensure that you can attain your weight loss goals. For difficult cases, they also offer a multi-gene DNA Health and DNA Diet-gene test to exclude conditions such as metabolic syndrome, elevated cholesterol levels and more.

Registered nurses support and aid you during your journey. If you are not losing sufficient weight, they will assist you in identifying the problem and help you to correct it. Your blood glucose and blood pressure will be monitored initially and they will perform a body stat analysis, as well as take your BMI (Body Mass Index) and body measurements.

You are not alone! You have access to an entire professional team of medical doctors, nurses, therapists and support staff who will help you reach your goals and keep you motivated throughout your journey. To further assist you, they also have a “buddy system” in place, via their Slender Blog.

They offer pre-prepared frozen meals that have been cooked according to strict recipe specifications and are available online or through their branches. Additional tips and recipes are also provided to assist you with the eating programme.

They offer you state of the artcentimetre loss devices such as the I-lipo™ and Velashape™, a valuable add-on to your programme, at drastically reduced prices. When you are reaching your ideal weight, they recommend Cryo-Lipo™ to help reduce bumps and bulges that are difficult to eliminate with weight loss and exercise alone.

The majority of people have some form of gut dysbiosis/abnormal microbiota which will dampen any successful weight loss programme. To help your body prepare for the weight loss programme, they include a five-day cleansing and preparation programme before you start. This colon/gut cleansing programme can help remove unhealthy bacteria and yeast from the body.

Since everyone loves to win when they lose, they introduced the annual 12 Week Slender Challengein 2011. In the last challenge, 27 patients lost a total of 443kg. The average weight loss calculated across all challenges is 14.9kg per patient and the biggest loser lost 39.5 kg!
