Lifestyle Change
Life has its ups and downs. Dr. Dowe now offers needed counseling, acute or chronic, visits for anxiety, depression associated with Covid-19 stress, or any situational medical condition.
​
B.E.N.S Theory can help with this lifestyle change and here is how:
​
(B) Behavior - Behavior is tightly pivotal to altering ways of eating healthily. B.E.N.S Nutrition 101 is offered for 12 weeks. Patients are encouraged to do a daily record of food intake. After recording your intake, Dr. Dowe will work with you on the 7–14 day record to change how you eat and giving you healthier recommendations.
(E) Exercise – Exercise is so crucial for maintenance and good for the body, mind, and soul.
Dr. Dowe will work with each client to incorporate physical activity into their lifestyle change from simple walking to personal training if desired.
(N) Nutrition – Weight loss is the final stage of the journey to nutritional weight loss. If the client is successful, this may be all that is needed except adding foods for variety.
If weight loss plateaus or seems to be unsuccessful then Dr. Dowe will help clients with more restrictive eating plans which may include for example low carb eating, such as Keto, or intermittent fasting.
All the plans will involve the client logging carbs, fats, and proteins assisted with meal planning and carb counting.
(S) Spiritual – Dr. Dowe is a Christian and believes in the Word of God.
There are free Spiritual Blogs here on the website and we also offer a group session once a month.
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:19-20
“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” Mark 16:17-18
