New Weight Management Services
Weight loss can be serious battle because of all the forces working against it including the psychological relationship with food, hormonal drivers, social and cultural norms, as well as economic hardship. Dieticians can provide significant help to overcome these forces. However many times in the past I have tried to get nutrition services for our members in the local Macomb area and have only been met with long waiting times as well as un-returned phone calls.
I am very excited to announce our partnership with Nourish, an online Dietician service that is covered by 90% of insurance companies. Many times in the past I have tried to get nutrition services in the local Macomb area and have only been met with long waiting times as well as un-returned phone calls. Nourish offers the following services:
- A comprehensive nutrition Assessment
- On-Going care with a Registered Dietician
- In-Between Session Support
Checkout their data below.
I chose to go with them because their representative is very responsive and the dietician will send me reports that I can reply to in an email. They do have an insurance checker on their website however I have found it is not always be correct and I can work behind the scenes with the Nourish staff to get you covered.
Please let me know if you would like me to submit a referral to Nourish and be setup with a Dietician.
What if My Insurance Doesn't Cover Nourish or I just want to learn more?
For those of you with insurance, like HAP, that doesn't cover their services or are looking to learn more about nutrition and weight management I am working on an online class. I am hoping to be done with the class in 3 months and I will be sending out invites for a preliminary test group.
Here is a preview of one of the lessons: Course Structure.
Season 2 of the Clear Health Show

Weight Loss Medications
If you find yourself really struggling with weight loss then medications can offer a significant starting jump to get you motivated. Clear Health has partnered with MediVera, a local pharmacy, to provide access to discounted and current weight loss medications like semaglutide and terzepatide. These have multiple benefits including cardiovascular risk and insulin resistance reduction.
If you are interested in any of these services please feel free to reach out to me.
As always have a happy and healthy day.
