![Diet research update [article linked in profile]: new studies are confirming that one-size-fits-all nutrition guidelines are completely out of date & out of alignment with best practices for optimal health.
In a recent study 13,000 twins were given the exact same diet for a period of time and monitored for things like blood sugar levels and weight. From this information, researches concluded that genes account for about 50% of risk factors for obesity and blood sugar instability, while lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, exercise and the gut microbiome account for the rest. This means that you can be following the exact same #vegan/#keto/#paleo/low calorie/etc. diet as your family & friends and see very different health and weight loss outcomes depending on your lifestyle, gut health, hormones and genetics. Health is complicated and there is no "one size fits all" panacea diet for optimal health and weight loss. Every body is unique. If you've been struggling with your weight despite trying every fad diet your best bet is to check-in with a practitioner that can help you optimize your environment (internal & external) and determine which diet is best for YOU. In my practice I help people loose weight by looking at their specific genetic profiles (did you know that services like 23&me provide the raw data for thousands of diet, nutrition and obesity genes? They don't report this as part of their health summary but your ND can use specialized software to provide recommendations based on these genetic variations), optimizing their gut flora (certain bacteria strains are associated with obesity while others can actually promote weight loss), balancing their hormones (studies show us that high estrogen levels without enough progesterone will lead to weight gain in women via a reduction in metabolism) & by helping my patients create daily health habits that work for their lifestyle. 🌱 #hormonebalance #weightlossupport #foodismedicine #guthealthmatters](http://scontent-ort2-2.cdninstagram.com/vp/1098f1e7264972703dad78c49220dd3b/5DC1471D/t51.2885-15/e35/s320x320/61681721_120666392239068_5938332968570714774_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-ort2-2.cdninstagram.com "Diet research update [article linked in profile]: new studies are confirming that one-size-fits-all nutrition guidelines are completely out of date & out of alignment with best practices for optimal health.
