Toronto Metabolic Clinic
We offer treatments for various conditions through dietary intervention, under the supervision of a dedicated and well-trained medical team, including both family physicians and specialists. Our dieting program is based on intermittent fasting and low carbohydrate/ketogenic consumption, and offered in partnership with Don Valley Integrated Digestive Clinic and Dr. Jason Fung's Intensive Dietary Management Program.
This is an OHIP-based service with additional interdisciplinary services, such as registered dietitian. Dietitian services are not covered under OHIP. We provide one-on-one support, as well as group sessions.
Patients are required to have a referral from a medical doctor in order to join the program.
Our dietary intervention program is focused on low carbohydrate consumption and intermittent fasting. Research indicates that this intervention is highly effective in treating conditions such as:
- obesity/overweight
- pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes
- non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD & NASH)
- metabolic syndrome (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar)
- polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS)
- obstructive sleep apnea
This specialized diet can also help manage high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Our diet program has been shown to treat and reverse diabetes, obesity, sleep apnea and polycystic o***y syndrome, which affects women who have issues with weight, insulin resistance and other hormonal imbalances.
