Metabolic Health

Make your metabolism work for you.

Cravings, energy crashes after meals and a body that won’t respond all point back to metabolism. A provider can help you understand yours.

Start with a consult. You don’t need a diagnosis to book one.

What can help with metabolic health

Treatment options

Peptides are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies and are not FDA-approved. A prescription requires a provider evaluation and isn’t guaranteed. Not available in all states. Peptides marked “Coming soon” aren’t available yet.

Available without a prescription

These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

What we look at in metabolic health

Part of the Ivím 360 framework, the way your care team tracks how you feel across every area of health.

01

Metabolic signals

Temperature, how your body responds to weight change efforts, and your sense of your metabolic rate.

02

Sugar sensitivity

How your body handles sugar, and how often you crash afterward.

03

Cravings and food noise

How often food takes over your thoughts, and how strong cravings feel.

04

Appetite and fullness

How hunger shows up and how long fullness lasts.

05

After meals

Your energy and alertness once you’ve eaten.

06

Fasting tolerance

How you feel when you go a while without food.

Where metabolic health changes actually come from

Sometimes it’s what you expect. Sometimes it’s connected to something else a provider can find.

01

Insulin and blood sugar

Insulin resistance is common and measurable, and it affects cravings, energy and weight.

02

Hormones

Thyroid, cortisol and sex hormones all shape how your body uses energy.

03

Sleep and stress

Both raise hunger and cravings. They’re part of your metabolic picture.

04

Muscle

Muscle helps regulate blood sugar. Protecting it matters, especially during weight loss.

How care at Ivím works

  1. Tell us what’s going on.

    Your health history, what you’ve been noticing, and what you want to work on.

  2. Meet your provider.

    A licensed Ivím provider reviews it with you and talks through what’s worth looking at.

  3. Get a plan built for you.

    Treatment when it’s appropriate, along with guidance on nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress.

  4. Keep going.

    Your care team stays with you between visits, and your plan changes as your needs do. Ivím membership gives you access to your care team and to Ivím’s programs. Medication is billed separately.
