Weight Loss

Like many middle aged woman, Dr. Parnes too saw her waist grow despite a healthy diet and exercise.

She found the answer and success with Dr. Harriet Mogul, author of Syndrome W. and endocrinologist whose research led to "the definition of a disorder of weight gain and insulin resistance in non-diabetic, menopausal women".

Syndrome W is a cluster of clinical symptoms that include

• weight gain
• waist gain
• "white-coat hyper-tension" (blood pressure increases in a doctor’s office)
• in women with normal blood sugar and elevated insulin levels "hyperinsulinemia"

It is the earliest indicator of diabetes down the road at a time when it’s easiest to fix.

Instructed by Dr. Mogul, Dr. Parnes offers

• Insulin resistance testing
• Evaluation of metabolic condition
• Plan for permanent weight loss
• Easy to follow Mogul Protocol

She has successfully treated many women who exercise regularly and eat reasonably but continued to put on weight each year as they approached middle age.

It is a metabolic defect treatable with medication and a simple pattern of food consumption program. It is NOT a diet, rather a monitored plan to give you a healthier lifestyle.

Quite simply, Metformin changed my life. I was an active 45 year old definitely heading into the perimenopausal stage. I watched what I ate and exercised. I could not lose weight, in fact I gained. With the weight gain my blood pressure increased and needed to be controlled by medication. After talking to Dr. Parnes she suggested I get tested to see if I was insulin resistant and talked to me about “Syndrome W”. The test showed I was insulin resistant and now 9 months later I am almost 40 lbs lighter and no longer on blood pressure medication. I feel like a new person, I feel like me again and for that I am forever grateful to Dr. Parnes.
