- 0:28Let's get ready.
- 0:30Comfortable and get started Hello, YouTube world.
- 0:34Welcome back to my channel.
- 0:35Thank you so much for watching this quick brief video.
- 0:39I had something on my mind and I just did a Instagram live about it.
- 0:43And I said, you know what, let me put it here on YouTube.
- 0:46If you're listening to this on the podcast, you'll also hear the audio version of this.
- 0:50But if you want to see the video version, you can head over to our YouTube channel.
- 0:54All right.
- 0:54So.
- 0:55My name is Dr.
- 0:55Jennifer Jensee and I am a functional medicine doctor where I help my patients lose weight, fix the digestive issues, balance the hormones, and overcome chronic health conditions naturally.
- 1:10We use herbs, lifestyle changes, and also other tools in our practice.
- 1:14I do own a practice here in Denver, New Jersey called Wellness Corner NJ where we practice confunctional Where conventional medicine meets functional medicine for those that are interested to explore a different world and for those that are not getting results in the conventional space.
- 1:32So we are, we have our clinic in New Jersey and it has been a beautiful journey.
- 1:37I've been practicing for 10 years now and it did start with me healing my body before I can help other patients.
- 1:43Now, one thing that most people might not be aware of, is that I am a weight loss expert.
- 1:48I've received my certification in weight loss, doctor supervised weight loss.
- 1:52I've done a lot of continued education on weight loss, and I've been helping patients lose weight since 2018.
- 2:00And I've done it all.
- 2:01I've done the HCG.
- 2:02I've done the medications.
- 2:05I've, you know, used the 500 calorie diet.
- 2:08I've done all the quick fixes.
- 2:10I've recommended all of the things for my patients.
- 2:12And unfortunately people will lose weight and then they were plateauing.
- 2:16Until I identified.
- 2:18What we need to do in order for us to lose weight.
- 2:21So, I titled this video, Losing Weight Is Easy, because it is.
- 2:25and I know many of us are going to watch this video, listen to the audio, and you're going to be triggered, and you're going to be mad, you're going to be upset, because I know many of my patients, and it might be you, You have been trying to lose weight for months and years and weeks and you have tried all of the things and nothing is working.
- 2:43And for you to hear, you know, a natural medicine doctor, a practitioner, a conventional medicine practitioner telling you losing weight is easy, it's like a slap in the face.
- 2:53I understand that, but I have to tell you, weight loss is a thing in my practice.
- 2:58Right now, as I'm talking to you, we have a detox program, a group detox program, where people, uh, you know, with me as I detox.
- 3:06This time as a group, they are embarking on this journey with me for three weeks.
- 3:10And this is week number one and people are losing anywhere from three to seven pounds in one week.
- 3:16Imagine at the end of the detox, how many pounds people are going to lose.
- 3:19So that's what I'm saying.
- 3:20Weight loss is easy because once you understand What the root causes are, which many people are not identifying first, We tend to just buy the quick fixes, do the injections, do the medications, take this diet, you know, like drink this tea, like we're doing all of the things before we actually spend time and energy to identify the root cause.
- 3:43The first thing you need to do to make weight loss easy for you is to know the root causes.
- 3:49Now you might be saying, well, Dr.
- 3:50Jay, what are the root causes?
- 3:52Since we have patients in our practice and also online, I do have a program for weight and fat loss with herbs.
- 3:58That's an online program that anybody can join.
- 4:01The number one goal for me is to know why you're gaining the weight.
- 4:05Why are you having difficulties, challenges, losing the weight?
- 4:09And hormones is part of it.
- 4:11There are so many root causes of losing weight, hormones is part of it.
- 4:15Now, when I talk about hormones, you might be thinking about your thyroid hormones.
- 4:19Yeah.
- 4:19You might be talking about your sex hormones for those that are going to pre, peri and postmenopausal, Your sex hormones, that's also a possibility.
- 4:27You might also be talking about your, your sugar, But.
- 4:30There are two hormones that we are not looking at.
- 4:32We're not looking at our insulin.
- 4:35That's a hormone because many of us are going into insulin resistance.
- 4:38We're not aware of it.
- 4:39Because doctors, majority of doctors do not check insulin.
- 4:44If your insulin level is in the double digit, whether it's 15 or 10, that is too high, if you were to ask me.
- 4:51Because as the food is coming in, you're eating complex carbohydrates, your pancreas is being signaled to release insulin.
- 4:58And if your pancreas is releasing too much insulin for the demand, right, if there's not enough demand and then your insulin is floating in your bloodstream, you're not going to lose the weight.
- 5:07That's one of the hormones that people are not looking at.
- 5:10Insulin is huge.
- 5:12And also your stress hormones.
- 5:15Now tell me who doesn't have, who does not have stress?
- 5:18We all have stress.
- 5:19Cortisol is a hormone that again, doctors are not checking.
- 5:21If they are checking it, they're not checking it the right way, You need to do a 24 hour cortisol.
- 5:26We need to check the morning cortisol, the afternoon cortisol, the evening cortisol, the night cortisol to see exactly what's going on.
- 5:31When your stress level is at the highest peak, when your adrenals are producing cortisol hormones, because if you are stressed, if you're stressed and you don't know how to support your adrenal glands, you don't know how to decrease your stress, or you're not taking any herbs for stress management, Then there, the cortisol is going to interfere with the way loss, and it's also going to make your immune system even weaker.
- 5:53When we are under stress, we don't know how to manage your stress, We don't control it.
- 5:57That will also slow down motility.
- 6:00So when that slows down, then toxins that you have floating in your body will be stuck in your fat cells.
- 6:06And that's why we're not losing the weight.
- 6:08So we need to look at the insulin hormones, the cortisol hormones, your stress hormones, and also toxins.
- 6:13Many of us, Have a desire to lose weight.
- 6:16I'm gonna lose weight.
- 6:17This is my newest resolution.
- 6:18I'm gonna change my diet I'm gonna exercise you can do all that.
- 6:21That's awesome.
- 6:22But did you decrease the toxin that you acquired?
- 6:25years ago.
- 6:26You can choose to, you can choose to change your diet.
- 6:29And when you do, you will lose a few pounds.
- 6:31Don't get me wrong because your body recognizes you are doing something amazing.
- 6:34So you're not eating the carbs like you used to.
- 6:36You're decreasing your sugar, you're decreasing your sugar, which is awesome, which is always, always good.
- 6:41But many of us plateau, We plateau.
- 6:44Why do we plateau?
- 6:45Because you're not really losing weight.
- 6:46Addressing the toxins.
- 6:48You need to address the toxins.
- 6:50You need to really look at all your hormones.
- 6:52Address the toxins.
- 6:54That's why our weight and fat loss with herbs is two and a half months.
- 6:57Why is that?
- 6:58Because the first few weeks we are detoxing.
- 7:01We are detoxing.
- 7:02You gotta detox.
- 7:03As you detox, you lose weight, you lose inflammation, you lose toxins, and you lose water weight.
- 7:09As you are going through the detox.
- 7:11That alone will make you feel better because you can see that how you Your body start restoring and repairing and resetting, Just a few weeks.
- 7:19And then when you go into the weight and fat loss program, that's when we incorporate the herbs that will significantly help you lose weight.
- 7:25In this program, we lose anywhere 12 pounds and up, So that's why I guarantee people you lose 12 pounds because when we did the last two cohorts, people were losing minimum 12 pounds.
- 7:35But I want you to ask yourself today, if you are not getting the results, you're not losing the weight and you're frustrated, you are desperate, because you're doing all the things and you want to give up.
- 7:45Did you identify those causes?
- 7:47Do you know why you are gaining weight?
- 7:51Do you know why the efforts that you put in right now are giving you Not giving you the results that you're looking for or giving you short term results, And you might be saying, well, Dr.
- 7:59J, I'm losing weight because I'm doing Rigovi, semaglutide, ozempic.
- 8:04I want you to ask yourself this question.
- 8:06Are you prepared to do these injections or take these medications for the rest of your life?
- 8:10Are you?
- 8:10Because what's going to happen is, the minute you stop taking them, the weight loss, the weight gain will come back.
- 8:16The weight loss will stop, and all the weight gain will come back.
- 8:19And now there are so many studies now on these medications, it's crazy how the FDA is just going out, like, doing so many crazy things behind the scenes.
- 8:28This is coming from a doctor.
- 8:29So I want you to understand, is it sustainable for us to implement quick fixes to lose the weight.
- 8:35And I do know weight loss is a psychological thing it is emotional because you don't feel well in your body you feel like you like you feel heavy, and you want to bring that person back that person that Used to be learned and lied that the person that used to have a great body, that person that you fell in love, that person you were born into, it's there.
- 8:55It is hiding internally.
- 8:57But over the years of us living the life that we have now, faced with toxins that we do now, we kind of, that person kind of hide away.
- 9:05Instead of your body, to lose the weight because weight loss is easy.
- 9:09It is.
- 9:10I would love to sit here and be like, oh, so challenging.
- 9:13It's complex.
- 9:13It's complicated.
- 9:14It's so much, it's this and that, but I would not feel well in my soul.
- 9:19And my conscious will not sit well with me for me to sit here in line to you and be like, yeah, it is so hard to lose weight.
- 9:24It is not.
- 9:25It is not hard to lose weight.
- 9:27Weight loss is easy.
- 9:28Once you have a roadmap, And you know exactly where you're going and you're addressing and you are identifying and addressing those causes along the way.?
- 9:36So if I just have this question, who was the last time you checked your cortisol level?
- 9:40When's the last time you detox?
- 9:42And as we know, we're all faced with taxing.
- 9:44It is something that is a must.
- 9:46That is a must.
- 9:47This is not something that, Oh, we all have taxing.
- 9:50There's no way we're going to sit here and be like, Oh, no, I'm not taxing.
- 9:53Toxins to our food, as organic as they might, as they might be.
- 9:57Toxins in the air that we breathe.
- 9:59Toxins in our personal care products.
- 10:01We all have toxins coming into our bodies every day.
- 10:04You don't see them, but they are there, So that's why when you go on a cleanse, when people, Cleanse, which I don't recommend.
- 10:10They go use the bathroom and they lose a lot of weight, Which is not a healthy way, but when you detox, which is not a cleanse, you don't have diarrhea on the detox.
- 10:18you don't have like multiple bowel movement.
- 10:20That's not, that's not a detox.
- 10:22If you're taking something that says detox and it's sending you to the bathroom, decreasing your electrolyte and making you dehydrated, Not the vibe.
- 10:29That's not detox.
- 10:30But when you detox, you're dressing your kidney, your liver, your lymphatic system, your stomach is flatter.
- 10:36That is the way to lose the weight.
- 10:37So, three things.
- 10:39Weight loss is easy.
- 10:40It's not hard.
- 10:40It's not complicated.
- 10:42Yes, I know many people might be triggered because they've been trying, they have tried everything and they're not seeing results, or they saw results, they plateau.
- 10:50And the second thing is you have to identify the root causes.
- 10:53I just spoke to you about the insulin, might be one, Doctors don't usually check insulin as for it.
- 10:59Yes, you should also check your thyroid hormones, your sex hormones, like your estrogen, progesterone, you should check, or DHEA, you should check all that.
- 11:06This is part of the identifying the cause, but you should also check your cortisol hormones.
- 11:13Because as we know, a lot of us are sick and the sicker you are, a lot of us are stressed.
- 11:18The more stressed that you are, the sicker you'll be, the harder it will be for you to lose the weight.
- 11:21Your metabolism slows down.
- 11:23And then you have to detox.
- 11:24You have to detox.
- 11:25Detoxing alone will help you lose a few pounds.
- 11:29That is a guarantee, at least for my detox.
- 11:31You have to so I'm gonna, shoot another video to go about the, to discuss the objections that I see the most in my practice that are keeping people stuck.
- 11:39And, Preventing them from losing the weight.
- 11:41And we want to get rid of those objections.
- 11:43Because I see a lot of people are doing things they don't need to do.
- 11:46It's like making it more complex.
- 11:49We don't have time for this, We don't have time to do a zillion steps of do this, do that.
- 11:54We don't have time for that.
- 11:54I have to do this to do that.
- 11:56All these objections are not working.
- 11:58So we're going to do a video about that.
- 11:59We're going to talk about that.
- 12:00All right, so thank you so much for watching this video.
- 12:03I wanted to get this off my chest as I'm seeing so many people in my practice, not only lose weight, but so many prospect people coming into our practice, letting us know how much they are struggling to lose weight.
- 12:14And I don't want this to be you.
- 12:16I don't want you to go into the mindset, finishing the rest of the year, thinking that it is hard to lose weight.
- 12:21When it is not hard to lose weight, it is easy to lose weight.
- 12:25Say it with me.
- 12:26It's easy to lose weight.
- 12:27I need to identify the causes.
- 12:29address the root causes and detox in the whole process.
- 12:32And yet, no, you don't have to take the medications, you don't have to take the injections.
- 12:35None of that, none of that stuff are required to lose weight.
- 12:38I promise you.
- 12:39Now, you can literally drink some tea, ride the herbs.
- 12:43My Chinese herbs will help you balance those hormones, will help you detox, will also address your cortisol, like all of the things that I just mentioned.
- 12:51You can just do them.
- 12:52And they are not the herbs that's going to send you to the bathroom.
- 12:54They are not cleansed herbs where you just live in the battle.
- 12:57They are Chinese herbs, powerful Chinese herbs designed to really decrease inflammation and help you address those root causes I just mentioned so that you can lose the weight and keep it off and have fun doing it.
