LaValle Metabolic Institute
Welcome to LaValle Metabolic Institute and to taking the first step toward understanding your health! Our facility was founded on the principle that your health today is a result of the experiences, exposures and lifestyle habits that you have acquired during your life. Your health is a dynamic and shifting swirl of chemistry that can be positively influenced and rejuvenated by taking the steps needed to embrace lifestyle change, to create a healthstyle that meets the needs of you and your family. Today, experts are too fast to jump to the conclusion that genetics controls how you are going to feel and where your health will lead. Although there is value in genomics, the reality is for most of us, you are in control of the majority of your genetic potential, and the choices you make every day combined with how equipped you are to deal with environmental exposure will create your future health. We believe that there are a number of things influencing your health including:
- Genetics
- Diet/Food Intolerances
- Drug History
- Stress/Chronic and Acute
- Environment/Detoxification Potential
- Disease history
- Exercise
- Essential Nutrient Status
These influences are all taking a part in shaping your metabolism and how you feel today. In order to make a change that is lasting a new view of metabolism has to be created. At the LaValle Metabolic Institute we believe that metabolism is the sum of all the biochemical reactions within your life that are driving your body toward the health that you have today, and more importantly what your health will be in the future. It is exciting and challenging to realize that you have the power to change the destiny of your health, vitality and how gracefully you will age.
Whether you are looking to lose weight or reduce risk factors such as elevated lipids, glucose or chronic inflammatory processes, we can create an individualized approach that is specific to your biochemical challenges. If you are hindered by a specific condition or you may not be able to tolerate drug therapy for a given condition, we can help.
Lastly, if you are looking to revitalize your health, gain energy, improve your performance either as a athlete, or because you have a hectic lifestyle that has eroded your vitality, we can guide you on a path to well being. Learning the daily rituals and practices that build health and are specific to your needs is the focus of our commitment to you.
LaValle Metabolic Institute is an interdisciplinary healthcare facility utilizing expertise from an experienced staff of medical doctors, registered nurses, registered dieticians, a clinical pharmacist and an acupuncturist. Our team will provide an individualized plan of action to look and feel better. Our programs begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your health, and an extensive interview to establish our patient’s history, health conditions and goals.
From there, your practitioner will establish the necessary tests to develop an Individualized plan to balance and manage your health through improving hormone communication, response to chronic stress, improved immune-inflammatory signaling as well as a plan for healthy eating that is appropriate for your metabolism.
LaValle Metabolic Institute’s vision is to be your trusted source of health information and individualized health programs for healthier living, renewing your vitality and quite simply "being well". Equally our mission is to help you to maximize results.

The logo for the LaValle Metabolic Institute.
Created with the idea in mind that metabolism is a dynamic and shifting swirl of chemistry, the LMI logo is a distinctive statement reflecting the complex web of factors that can influence your metabolism. The well-balanced interplay of the liver, thyroid gland, gastrointestinal tract, adrenal glands, pancreas, the water you drink, the foods you eat, and the oxygen you breathe, as well as the environment in which you live, are all key to a healthy metabolism and the ability to maintain an ideal body weight.
Your health today is a result of the experiences, exposures and lifestyle habits acquired during your life.
