Our Healthy Mediterranean Eating Plan Is More Than a Fad Diet

Starting a structured eating plan for weight loss and/or weight maintenance addresses the myriad of chronic health conditions related to the development of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The plan includes a healthy diet almost anyone can follow, medical foods to support healthy body composition, and exercise recommendations. The Mediterranean-style eating plan is balanced and promotes natural weight loss over time. It is not a quick fix, but rather a plan that you can follow for life. Most people enjoy the flexibility and the variety of healthy foods that they can eat while following the plan. The Mediterranean eating plan has proven results in increasing lean body mass (muscle), reducing body fat (especially inflammatory belly fat), and improved health outcomes.

To start the program, you receive baseline labs as part of your intake. Dr. Munro goes over the results of your testing and custom designs a diet and exercise plan to fit your needs.

For Natural Weight Loss, a Balanced Diet is Important

Healthy weight loss for life requires more than a GLP-1 or a fad diet. Long-term success requires that you make lifestyle changes. If natural weight loss is what you want, you can feel good about choosing the Mediterranean eating plan or modified keto diet. They both use real food and not pre-packaged meals or meal replacements. The plans can be used in conjunction with GLP-1 treatments to optimize your health and support long term weight loss maintenance. The Mediterranean plan includes a variety of foods and is considered to be low carbohydrate and low sugar. Sometimes a lower carbohydrate plan is needed. We offer a heart-healthy keto diet that is based on the Mediterranean eating plan. It includes more carbohydrates from vegetables and fruit than a typical keto diet and it emphasizes heart healthy proteins and higher fiber. This type of diet may be a better fit if you have type II diabetes or need to kick start weight loss that has plateaued. At our Tariffville, CT office, we offer these individualized weight loss programs to fit your needs.
