Uncover The Depth Of What Your Body Needs
Metabolic Testing
Do you feel like you’re stuck in a rut with your nutrition and unable to meet your wellness goals? At Nourish to Flourish, we use metabolic testing to help our clients uncover what their bodies truly need to lead a healthier lifestyle. Not having a thorough understanding of how much food or energy your body needs to thrive is like going on a road trip to a new destination without any directions. You may get there eventually, but you may have been able to get there a little quicker with some clear guidance. That’s the goal behind metabolic testing—to give you insight into your overall health and help you with specific steps to support your metabolism.

What Is Metabolic Testing?
Metabolic testing can be valuable for various reasons, including weight management, improving one’s athletic performance and assessing metabolic disorders such as diabetes or thyroid issues. By understanding your metabolic rate and energy needs, you are able to make more informed decisions about diet, exercise, and overall health. At Nourish to Flourish, we evaluate this through indirect calorimetry. This method measures the amount of oxygen you consume and the amount of carbon dioxide you produce to determine how many calories you’re burning while resting. Your resting metabolic rate is how much energy your body needs to perform basic functions like breathing or pumping blood through your body.
Why Do I Need To Know My Resting Metabolic Rate?
Our metabolic assessment is crafted to provide precise estimations of calorie expenditure, whether at rest or during physical activity. Knowing how much energy you expend at rest allows us to thoroughly analyze your results and tailor guidance to each client’s unique objectives. The ability to accurately gauge calorie burn is a crucial element in any weight management plan, whether you’re aiming to lose, maintain or gain weight. Our simple 10-minute test has the ability to accurately measure how many calories you need to consume to lose weight.
