Body Composition Program

Not simply weight loss, a clinician-guided approach to metabolic efficiency, muscle preservation, and long-term vitality.
Scientific approach to longevity and anti-aging medicine

Why It Matters

Metabolic health is longevity

Body composition, the ratio of lean muscle mass to body fat, is one of the most reliable indicators of how well your body will age. At Arbour Longevity, we treat it as a primary clinical metric, not an afterthought.

Improved Metabolism

Increase resting metabolic rate and energy output across the day.

Sustained Energy

Stable blood sugar and hormonal balance to eliminate midday crashes.

Strength & Mobility

Preserve and build muscle to support lifelong function and independence.

Reduced Disease Risk

Lower markers for metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

Overall Healthspan

The goal isn't just years added to your life, it's vitality added to every year.

The Program

What your program includes

01

Clinician-Guided Weight Management

Every body composition plan begins with a complete clinical assessment, not a generic protocol. Gandhi evaluates your hormonal baseline, metabolic markers, and health history to build a strategy that's specific to you.

02

Nutrition Coaching

Evidence-based dietary guidance tailored to your metabolism, lifestyle, and body composition goals. We move beyond generic calorie counting toward macronutrient strategies that support lean mass retention.

03

Exercise Recommendations

Targeted movement protocols designed to build and preserve muscle while supporting metabolic efficiency, aligned with your current fitness level and clinical picture.

04

Metabolic Health Evaluation

Comprehensive labs and biomarker review to uncover the root drivers of weight gain, fatigue, or muscle loss, including insulin sensitivity, thyroid function, and inflammatory markers.

05

Hormone Optimization

When appropriate, hormone therapy is integrated into the body composition plan. Testosterone, estrogen, thyroid, and DHEA levels profoundly affect fat distribution and muscle retention.

Our Philosophy

Long term vitality first

Weight loss is a byproduct of optimised biology, not a goal in itself. We target the mechanisms that determine how effectively your body ages.

I

Metabolic Efficiency

Improving how your body converts food to energy, the foundation of every longevity outcome.

II

Muscle Preservation

Sarcopenia is one of the primary drivers of age-related decline. We treat muscle mass as a clinical priority, not a cosmetic one.

III

Hormonal Context

Body composition cannot be optimised in isolation. Hormonal status shapes every metabolic and tissue-level outcome.

IV

Overall Vitality

Energy, cognition, strength, and resilience, the measurable markers of a body performing at its full potential.

Integrated Care

Never a single variable

Explore the Full Longevity Program

Our longevity work runs on two tracks: measuring what is actually happening in your biology, and intervening on what the measurements show.

Advanced Diagnostics

Longevity medicine starts with measurement, not protocols. Organic acids testing reads cellular and mitochondrial function through metabolic byproducts. DUTCH testing maps hormone metabolite pathways, showing not only what your body produces but how it clears it. Genetic variants including MTHFR and related SNPs affect methylation, detoxification and nutrient handling. Biological age markers establish a baseline that chronological age cannot. Together these determine which interventions are appropriate for you, which is the point: testing determines the protocol rather than the protocol determining the testing.

Longevity Compounds & Protocols

Intervention follows the data. NAD+ protocols support cellular energy production and the DNA repair pathways that decline with age. MOTS-c, a mitochondrial-derived peptide, acts on metabolic regulation and mitochondrial signalling. Epithalon is used in structured cycles. Each compound is selected from what your lab work shows, never chosen from a menu. Several longevity compounds are investigational and have not been reviewed or approved by FDA for anti-aging indications; this is disclosed in full at consultation so your decision is an informed one.
