If you have struggled with excess weight, belly fat, food cravings, or slow metabolism, you are not alone. At Vitalis Health, Kochi, we approach weight loss as a metabolic reset, not a diet. The goal is to restore your body’s ability to burn fat efficiently, regulate blood sugar, and maintain long-term metabolic health.
Our programmes combine scientific assessment, personalised lifestyle change, and when appropriate, medical therapy to help you achieve sustainable results.
Excess weight is not only about appearance. It increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver, sleep problems, and joint pain. Many people who try diets or gym plans find that they lose a few kilos only to regain them later. This happens because the real issue, i.e. metabolic dysfunction, is not addressed. At Vitalis Health, we identify and correct these root causes using advanced testing and personalised care.
We begin by understanding your body’s unique metabolic profile.
This includes:
Body composition analysis to measure fat, muscle, and visceral fat.
Metabolic and hormonal markers, such as fasting insulin, glucose, and lipid profile.
Fitness metrics, including VOâ‚‚ max, grip strength, and balance testing.
During this phase, we also assess the insulin–GLP-1 axis, which plays a central role in how your body regulates sugar, hunger, and fat storage.
Understanding the insulin–GLP-1 axis:
Insulin and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) are hormones that work together to manage blood sugar and appetite. Insulin moves glucose from the blood into cells, while GLP-1 is released from the gut after meals to help insulin work better, reduce appetite, and slow digestion.
When this system is not functioning well, you may experience constant hunger, fatigue after meals, or difficulty losing weight.
We evaluate this through fasting insulin and glucose levels, HbA1c, C-peptide, body composition, and clinical signs of poor satiety control. Understanding your insulin and GLP-1 function helps us design a plan that targets the underlying cause rather than only the symptoms.
Once we understand your metabolism, we create a personalised plan that combines nutrition, exercise, and behaviour support.
Our nutrition guidance focuses on real, high-protein foods and better meal timing. Exercise prescriptions improve strength and endurance while keeping sustainability in mind. We also emphasise adequate sleep, recovery, and stress management.
For individuals who require additional support, Incretin based therapies with newer GLP-1 / GIP medications can be used under medical supervision. These medications help improve satiety, reduce cravings, and enhance insulin sensitivity, making weight loss easier and more consistent. Every treatment decision is made with safety and long-term success as priorities.
Weight loss is only the first step. We help you maintain progress by monitoring changes in body composition, glucose control, and metabolic markers. Regular follow-ups allow us to adjust your plan and prevent rebound weight gain. Our goal is to help you maintain a healthy, strong, and metabolically flexible body for life.
