What’s stopping you from losing weight?
One of the most common reasons people visit our naturopathic clinic is to seek our advice on their weight loss. For many, they’ve been trying hard for a long time to lose weight… and nothing is working. They’ve dieted. They’ve exercised. But the weight stays on.
There’s a reason for this and it boils down to understanding your body – its needs, its balances and its essential biochemical components.
Natural obstacles to weight loss

What’s getting in the way?
In order for your dieting and exercise regime to actually work, you need your body to be functioning in balance. Imbalances in your mineral, vitamin or hormone levels will inhibit your body’s ability to efficiently process food and will inhibit your ability to get up and do the hard-work required.
Imbalances in minerals and vitamins like Magnesium, Vitamin B and Vitamin C can lead to tiredness, sugar-cravings and changes in taste. When combined, that means you can easily lose the get-up-and-go you need to stick to a taxing exercise regime. Those cravings are the death of many a well-intentioned diet plan.
Your hormones – thyroid, adrenal and sexual – are constantly in flux and the external stresses of your life can throw them out of balance. Stress at work can increase the production of adrenaline, for example, which is a common problem – but a serious one if you’re struggling with your weight.
