What is a FIZO Health Score?

A FIZO Health Score is a single digit score tailored for health. It incorporates a range of biomarkers to provide a comprehensive assessment of your metabolic health.

By analyzing these biomarkers, the Health Score aims to identify the presence of metabolic syndrome and assign a numerical score between 300 and 850. A higher score indicates better health, while a lower score suggests areas for improvement.

A Prescription for Poor Health Outcomes and Rising Costs

Physicians, constrained by limited time and training in lifestyle medicine, often rely on medications to manage symptoms rather than addressing root causes of obesity and chronic diseases. This leads to poor health outcomes and higher costs.

Despite the U.S. spending $4 trillion annually on healthcare, largely on chronic disease management, effective lifestyle interventions like diet and exercise are often overlooked in favor of quick fixes.As a result, patients are left without the knowledge or guidance needed to achieve lasting health improvements.

Do You Have Metabolic Syndrome?

88% of the U.S. adult population has metabolic syndrome and is suffering, or will suffer, from chronic diseases.

Metabolic syndrome is a group of five conditions that can lead to heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other health problems. Metabolic syndrome is diagnosed when someone has three or more of these risk factors: high blood glucose (sugar), low levels of HDL (“good”) cholesterol, high blood pressure, high Triglycerides, and excess body fat around the waist.

What is Metabolic Syndrome?

Metabolic syndrome is also known as insulin resistance syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a group of risk factors for heart disease, diabetes, and other health problems. Insulin resistance is a condition that's closely linked to metabolic syndrome. In people with insulin resistance, cells don't respond normally to insulin, which can lead to higher blood sugar levels.

metaboliic syndrome graphic Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. These conditions include increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels.

Components of Metabolic Syndrome

To be diagnosed with Metabolic Syndrome, you need to have at least three of the following five criteria:

High Blood Pressure: A blood pressure reading of 130/85 mmHg or higher, or being on medication to treat high blood pressure.
High Blood Sugar: Fasting blood glucose levels of 100 mg/dL or higher, or being on medication to treat high blood sugar.
Excess Body Fat Around the Waist: A waist circumference of 40 inches or more for men, and 35 inches or more for women.
High Triglycerides: Triglyceride levels of 150 mg/dL or higher, or being on medication to treat high triglycerides.
Low HDL Cholesterol: HDL cholesterol levels of less than 40 mg/dL in men, and less than 50 mg/dL in women, or being on medication to treat low HDL cholesterol.

Risk Factors

The risk of developing Metabolic Syndrome increases with age, and it is more common in people who are overweight or obese. Other risk factors include a sedentary lifestyle, a diet high in fats and sugars, and a family history of diabetes or cardiovascular disease.

Why is Metabolic Syndrome Important?

Having Metabolic Syndrome significantly increases your risk of developing serious health problems, including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Early detection and management are crucial to reducing these risks.

What is Metabolic Health?

Metabolic health refers to how well your body generates and processes energy at the cellular level. It's a crucial aspect of overall well-being, influencing your risk for chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

Key Components of Metabolic Health

Blood Sugar Levels: Stable blood sugar levels are essential for preventing diabetes and maintaining consistent energy throughout the day.
Cholesterol Levels: Balanced levels of HDL (good cholesterol) and LDL (bad cholesterol) are vital for cardiovascular health.
Blood Pressure: Optimal blood pressure reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Waist-to-Height Ratio: This ratio helps assess body fat distribution, with a lower ratio indicating a healthier body composition.
Triglycerides: Lower levels of triglycerides in the blood reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Importance of Metabolic Health

Maintaining good metabolic health is essential for:

Preventing Chronic Diseases: Proper metabolic function helps prevent conditions like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and metabolic syndrome.
Enhancing Quality of Life: Good metabolic health leads to better energy levels, improved mood, and overall better physical health.
Longevity: Healthy metabolism can contribute to a longer, healthier life by reducing the risk of serious health complications.

How to Improve Metabolic Health

Healthy Eating: Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole foods, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Low carb, high fat diets or Nutritional Ketosis can be particularly effective.

Regular Exercise: Physical activity helps maintain a healthy weight, improves cardiovascular health, and enhances insulin sensitivity.

Adequate Sleep: Quality sleep is crucial for metabolic health as it helps regulate hormones and reduce stress.

Stress Management: Chronic stress can negatively impact metabolic health. Techniques like mindfulness, meditation, and regular physical activity can help manage stress.

Regular Health Check-ups: Monitoring key health markers through regular check-ups helps in early detection and management of potential issues.

Conclusion

Understanding and maintaining good metabolic health is fundamental to preventing chronic diseases and enhancing overall well-being. By focusing on lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, you can significantly improve your metabolic health and quality of life.

Understanding the FIZO Health Score for Your Health

What is a FIZO Health Score?

The Health Score is a health metric designed to give you a clear picture of your metabolic health. Think of it like a credit score but for your health. It helps us understand how well your body is managing key factors that influence your risk for conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses.

Key Components of the FIZO Health Score

Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR): This tells us about your body composition. A healthy ratio indicates a lower risk of metabolic syndrome.
TG/HDL Ratio: This ratio of triglycerides to HDL cholesterol helps us understand your lipid metabolism. Lower ratios are better for heart health.
Remnant Cholesterol: This measures the cholesterol left after subtracting the good (HDL) and bad (LDL) cholesterol from total cholesterol. Lower levels are healthier.
A1C: This measures your average blood sugar levels over the past few months. Lower levels mean better blood sugar control.
Blood Pressure: Healthy blood pressure levels are crucial for reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Why Lifestyle Modifications are Key

Many doctors often turn to medication first, but at our clinic, we believe that lifestyle modifications should be the first line of defense. Medications can manage symptoms, but lifestyle changes can address the root causes of metabolic syndrome and other chronic diseases.

How We Use Your FIZO Health Score

Initial Assessment: When you get your Health Score, it gives us a starting point. We identify areas where you can improve your health.
Custom Plan: Based on your Health Score, we create a personalized plan aimed at improving your score and overall health. This plan will focus on lifestyle changes, particularly adopting a low carb, high fat diet or Nutritional Ketosis.
Ongoing Support: We provide continuous support through telemedicine visits and our VIP membership program. This ensures you have the guidance you need to make lasting changes.

The Benefits of a High FIZO Health Score

Reduced Risk of Chronic Diseases: Lower risk of conditions like heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
Better Energy Levels: More vitality and improved daily life.
Weight Management: Easier to maintain a healthy weight.
Improved Blood Sugar Control: Lower risk of diabetes-related complications.
Peace of Mind: Confidence in knowing you're in great health.

Our Goal

Our ultimate goal is to help you achieve a high FIZO Health Score and reverse metabolic syndrome and other chronic diseases through sustainable lifestyle changes. We want to empower you to take control of your health with a plan that works for you, reducing your reliance on medications and improving your quality of life.
