WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

Choosing a weight loss medication depends on the needs of the client. By-far the most popular weight-loss medications are semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound).

There are many other oral medications that can be useful tools in the fight to maintain a healthy weight. Finding out which one works for you requires an analysis of your symptoms, duration of obesity, lab values, and teamwork between you and the provider to find the best possible solution.

In case you don’t already know, hormones run your life. They determine how well you sleep, how easy it is to wake up, how alert you are, your digestive ability, whether or not you eliminate or store calories, and even when you feel hungry or full. At MTN HLTH, we utilize hormone replacement to help your body function better, trim fat, build lean mass, and regulate weight more consistently. We’ll help you determine which of your hormones need to be optimized. See our Hormone Optimization page to learn more.

Everyday movement and avoiding the temptation to be overly sedentary is a non-negotiable aspect of any human being who wants to thrive physically. But this should not be daunting or intimidating. It’s more simple and attainable then you may think. We help our patients develop effective, intuitive, and fun strategies that can easily become a part of one’s lifestyle.

Strength training and improved cardiopulmonary fitness are essential to improving quality of life and longevity.

What you eat has a massive impact on your body composition and your overall health. There is nothing that will improve your health more than a healthy diet. There is no medication as powerful and impactful as a healthy diet. The question is: what constitutes a healthy diet? There are as many opinions as there are people. At MTN HLTH, we take a personalized approach to helping people optimize their diet and help make it a lifestyle of healthy eating that they can enjoy instead of relying on fad diets that cannot be sustained over time. We offer scientifically proven guidelines as a framework within which our patients can construct a nutrition plan that best suits them — we arm you with the knowledge and tools to create healthy eating habits, instead of “dieting.”
