About this webinar
Sustainable weight management extends beyond simple calorie restriction and requires a deeper understanding of the physiological systems that regulate appetite, metabolism, and energy balance. While creating an energy deficit remains foundational, long-term success depends on effectively addressing hunger signaling, glycemic control, lean muscle preservation, and nutritional wellness.
This webinar will explore a clinically relevant, multi-system approach to weight management, including the role of bitter compounds in supporting satiety signaling, targeted nutrient strategies to promote healthy glucose metabolism and muscle integrity, and the importance of correcting micronutrient insufficiencies that may hinder metabolic efficiency.
Join naturopathic doctor Megan Borreson as she translates emerging research into practical, evidence-informed strategies to support patient adherence, metabolic health, and sustainable outcomes.
Key takeaways
- Describe the mechanisms by which gut-derived signaling influences appetite regulation and satiety.
- Evaluate strategies to support healthy glycemic control and lean muscle mass preservation during weight management care.
- Recognize common micronutrient gaps that may impair metabolic function and outline strategies to address them in clinical practice.
- Apply an integrative, systems-based approach to weight management that improves patient adherence and supports sustainable results.
