Movement & Physical Fitness

Did you know there isn’t one solid study that demonstrates that exercise results in weight loss? Although exercise is probably the absolute best thing you can do to live a long, healthy life, it isn’t a magic cure for excess weight. In fact, many patients with excess weight have a lot of inflammation and aches and pains that make exercising miserable. That’s why we always start with nutritional biochemistry as our first-line treatment. Once that inflammation is reduced, getting the body moving is a much easier task! And, contrary to what many people think, moving the body isn’t limited to machines and gyms. There are a lot of ways to improve the physical fitness of the human body that don’t require running in place!
