Metabolism tests may be scheduled on their own or combined with an initial or follow-up appointment.
(For pricing info & package deals for metabolism tests, click here.)
Metabolism testing is ideal for:
- People taking GLP-1 medications
- People who have undergone bariatric surgery
- Athletes looking to improve their performance
- People who have done all the “right” things and aren’t getting the results they expect
- People training to increase their muscle mass
- People who have a history of low-calorie dieting
- People who are at risk of over-exercising
To obtain an accurate result, this test requires:
- A fast of at least 4 hours, including caffeine (water is fine during that time) AND
- Minimal activity for at least 4 hours
- You’re welcome to bring something with you to eat/drink once the test is finished.
- Bring headphones, if desired, to help the time pass more quickly.
If you’re able to roll out of bed and come in, that is ideal. That is why this test is offered in the morning and early afternoon. If you keep a less-traditional schedule and need an appointment time later in the day, please contact Kelly.
