The last program you’ll ever need to lose weight.
Swap body discomfort for total confidence and feel like yourself again –
with a clinically-proven food plan designed for you.
Metabolic Balance 12 Week Program
Matching your biochemistry with the right food chemistry, Metabolic Balance® is easy-to-follow and designed for your lifestyle.
This is not a diet. This is a whole-body approach to weight and well-being – without shakes, fasting or pills.
In fact, if you finally want to get off the dieting merry-go-round, then Metabolic Balance® might be for you.
Metabolic Balance® aims to achieve optimal health. And when your health is optimal, your body naturally releases excess weight.
Real women. Real success stories.
Tiredness? Weight gain? Low moods? Hormone troubles? Headaches? Your body is signalling it’s out of balance. Here’s how we address that.
Metabolic Balance® is all about you – your blood values, health profile, goals, and preferences – which means no two plans are alike.
It matches your biochemistry with the right food chemistry to come up with an easy-to-follow personalised nutrition plan, designed to suit your lifestyle.
Combining this with a high level of support from a practitioner who has been through the program herself (that’s me!), means you're in the best position to achieve long-lasting success.
I introduced Metabolic Balance® into my clinic as I could see there were excellent results for clients with migraine and other health issues such as low energy and weight gain. But, Metabolic Balance® is for every body!
The program is a whole-body approach to weight loss that often sees other health conditions – like hormone imbalance, low mood or loss of libido – clear up at the same time.
The plan is designed to fit into your lifestyle so you can make lasting change. In fact, an International study found that Metabolic Balance® participants kept the weight off longer than any other weight loss plan out there.
Importantly, you also experience the relief of knowing you’re following a clinically proven program, not a fad diet.
In fact, this is the only weight loss program I feel ethically comfortable recommending to my clients, as it puts wellness first.
But it’s not just for weight loss.
Metabolic Balance® is designed to normalise hormone and insulin levels and has been beneficial for conditions such as autoimmune conditions, migraine thyroid imbalances, high cholesterol, asthma, skin conditions, PCOS, endometriosis, diabetes, and menopause management and many other chronic, debilitating conditions.
In just your first two sessions, you’ll have the answers about why you’re feeling flat PLUS a personalised, easy-to-follow path forward.
The process
-
In this initial consultation and health assessment, we will discuss everything about your health, what’s currently going on for you, your medical history, your family medical history, and your diet and lifestyle habits. I also take the time to step you through a sample food plan so you are absolutely clear on what the program is, before you take the next step in signing up for your program.
-
Next step is to sign up and pay for the program, and complete the necessary paperwork.
-
The next step on your Metabolic Balance journey is to head to your local pathology clinic and get a comprehensive blood test. We will need this in order to create your personalised nutrition plan. Your test referrals and costs is included in the program.
-
Once you’ve had your initial consultation, a full health history has been taken, your body measurements have been collected and your blood tests are back, this data will be used to create a personalised nutrition plan for you.
-
Once we have gone through your nutrition plan, we will meet again for another 4 coaching sessions over the following 12 weeks. In these consultations, we will see how you’re tracking, discuss what’s coming up in the next phase and go through anything else you might need to work through. These consultations play an important role in your Metabolic Balance journey.

What makes Metabolic Balance® different?
Personalised Approach: Metabolic Balance® provides a personalised nutrition plan based on your individual blood test results, health information, and specific dietary needs. This tailored approach aims to address metabolic imbalances and promote overall health.
A Focus on Overall Wellbeing: The program focuses on providing the exact nutrition that your cells need, so you achieve overall better health. When we reach a healthier state, the body releases excess weight. Additionally, in the early phases of Metabolic Balance®, a meal plan provides the exact portions to eat to achieve weight loss, quickly.
Balanced Nutrition: Metabolic Balance® emphasises a balanced intake of macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and encourages whole, unprocessed foods. The program aims to provide essential nutrients and maintain a balanced metabolic state. No food groups are excluded - a healthy balance of protein, carbs and fats are included.
Blood Sugar Regulation: By focusing on specific food combinations and portion sizes, along with reduced snacking, Metabolic Balance® aims to help regulate blood sugar levels. This may be particularly beneficial for individuals with insulin resistance or diabetes.
High Level of Support: The Metabolic Balance® plan can only be sold in combination with a package of consultation sessions with a trained Metabolic Balance® practitioner who must also be a qualified nutritionist, naturopath or doctor. This ensures that the program can be tweaked as you go along to meet your needs by a health professional, while providing accountability, support and guidance. These consultations are the secret sauce to your success.
Long-term Behavior Change: The program promotes sustainable lifestyle changes rather than quick-fix solutions. Encouraging you to develop healthier eating habits and make better food choices results in long-term weight management and improved overall well-being. (Research has found that Metabolic Balance® provides the greatest success in this area, compared to other well-known diet programs such as Weight Watchers.)
METABOLIC BALANCE® FAQs
How long does it take to get my plan generated?
It can take about 2 weeks for the process of having your Initial Consultation, organising blood tests and generating your plan.
Can I just purchase the plan without any follow up consultations?
No, a condition of joining Metabolic Balance® is to have a series of consultations to ensure your success on the plan.
Is there a payment plan?
Yes, you can spread the cost of the program across 3 months. (Additional fees apply.)
My partner would like to do Metabolic Balance® as well. Can they just use my plan?
No, each plan is created specifically for you based on blood test results, health goals and other factors. Following someone else’s plan is unlikely to achieve results (and in fact may be detrimental to their health.)
Do I need to track or count calories on Metabolic Balance®
No. You are provided with an easy to follow framework, with suggested food weight and quantities.
Can I have all my appointments online?
Yes, absolutely; consultations can be held on Zoom. You will need to visit a local pathology centre for blood tests.
Is Metabolic Balance® suitable for people with migraine?
Yes, the reason I introduced Metabolic Balance® into my clinic was because of the positive results the program has shown for those with migraine.
Why does Metabolic Balance® cost more than other weight loss programs?
Metabolic Balance® is not simply a weight loss diet. It is a personalised nutrition program. It is not a one-size-fits-all program simply based on your weight and height (although those factors are taken into account.)
Your individual program is based on your individual blood parameters - in fact, 36 of them. Your food plan is generated based on not just the results of these individual blood parameters but also how they interplay with each other. Your food plan is as individual as your fingerprint.
So, the Metabolic Balance® program includes:
Blood test for 36 blood values
Generation of your individual plan and food list by Metabolic Balance® in Germany, based on your health assessment, goals, food preferences and the blood values
A consultation with your practitioner to hand over and thoroughly explain the plan
Four follow-up consultations with your practitioner over the program to support you as you move through the plan phases, providing coaching, support, individualised tweaks to the plan and accountability
The Metabolic Balance® app, which you can use to access your food plan and food lists (so handy when out shopping)
Metabolic Balance® Companion Guide (A 100-page tips and recipe eBook)
Plus, because any change requires a positive mindset, I also provide a Mindset Workbook to support clients in diving deep into themselves and achieving lasting change AND we can also use Emotional Release Technique® in your consultations to help uncover and clear any emotional drivers which may be subconsciously causing you to self-sabotage your success.
This is all included to set you up to succeed. The program is not about selling you special foods, supplements, shakes or pills that help you lose weight in the short term but aren't sustainable, so you keep coming back and back to buy more.
With Metabolic Balance®, we want you to achieve sustainable, long-term health benefits that see you achieve the optimum weight for your body and stay there. Learning new habits can take time, and support is often needed, which is why several consults are included in the package.
In fact, these appointments are so key to the program's success that Metabolic Balance® will not permit anyone to sell the plan without a package of consultations.
What pathology tests are required?
The pathology tests used are typical of the standard screening tests you would be familiar with if you have had blood tests through your GP. They include:
Red blood cell count
Haemoglobin
White blood cell count
MCV, MCH, MCHC
Platelet count
Sodium
Urea
Creatinine
Liver function tests
Blood glucose
Cholesterol
Iron
Thyroid function
And more
You can see the full list of tests that I run here for my Metabolic Balance clients: https://www.i-screen.com.au/tests/metabolic-balance-vitamin-d-hba1c
Note that Metabolic Balance® is not based on the blood type diet, nor does it test for food intolerances.
The process of generating your food list and plan based on your blood biochemistry and other factors by Metabolic Balance is quite comprehensive and based on decades of scientific research.
But to keep it simple, Metabolic Balance essentially analyses your blood test results to determine the nutrients that you require. Once they have this information, they then put together a list of foods that match that nutrient profile.
For example, abnormally high MCV values indicate vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiency. On the other hand, a low value means that more iron, copper and the B vitamins B1, B2 and B3 are needed. Examples of foods that provide those nutrients:
B1- legumes, fish, meat, oats
B2- milk, dairy products, fish liver, salmon, almonds, spinach
B3 - poultry, eggs, beef, game, dairy products
Iron - besides meat, oats, pumpkin seeds, eggs, mushrooms, etc.
Copper - fish, shellfish, sunflower seeds, nuts, legumes
Not only does Metabolic Balance® analyse each individual blood value, but they also look at how these results interplay with each other. It’s mind-blowing!
Additionally, they also look at other factors such as weight, height, age, gender, illnesses and medications you are on, to help refine your food list and also the recommended portion sizes.
For example, some medications deplete us of nutrients, so Metabolic Balance will take that into account when working out the nutrients you require.
If someone indicates they have migraine (as an example of an illness), then Metabolic Balance will eliminate foods that are rich in tyramine – a migraine trigger.
So, the blood testing is more intricately linked to metabolism, and the aim is to nourish the cells, balance hormones (including insulin) and support the body to naturally release excess weight (if required).
Metabolic Balance® Terms and Conditions (in conjunction with the Naturopathic Services Agreement)
It is the client’s responsibility to be sure that this program is right for them, as a refund is not available for any part of the Metabolic Balance® program (including unused consultations) once a Metabolic Balance® individual food program has been generated (this is to meet Metabolic Balance®'s condition of not providing food plans without a package of supporting practitioner consultations.)
If a client decides to cancel Metabolic Balance® before their food plan is generated, there will be a cancellation fee of $250 plus the cost of any blood test referrals and appointments already held.
All appointments included in the Metabolic Balance® package must be held within 12 weeks from the date that the food plan is handed over, except in exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the practitioner. Clients are welcome to purchase and book in for monthly follow-up sessions at the listed rate after the 12 week program should they require ongoing support.
“Josie is a lovely and caring Naturopath who takes the time to listen to your health concerns. She thoroughly explains her recommendations and plans to assist you with your health issues. The added benefit of being able to do the consults via Zoom is fantastic! Josie has supported and encouraged me on my Metabolic Balance Journey, and my health has improved greatly since starting. I would highly recommend Josie to anyone who is seeking the help and advice of a naturopath.”
