Metabolic Testing Comes to Heart & Health Clinic
Doing everything right and still not seeing results? Your nutrition plan should be built from your own numbers. Stop guessing. Start measuring!
Featured
The Personalized Nutritional Assessment looks at three parts of your health and combines them into one assessment built for you. Your numbers are measured, not estimated from formulas based on your age, height, and weight.
Part 1
60–70% of the calories you burn each dayYour REE is the energy your body uses at rest. It makes up about 60–70% of the calories you burn each day.
Your REE is measured by indirect calorimetry, the gold-standard method. This test measures the oxygen you breathe in and the carbon dioxide you breathe out to work out how many calories your body burns.
Part 2

The scan is validated against DXA, a specialized X-ray scan used to measure body composition. Your body composition helps explain your metabolic results.
