Cut Through the Weight Loss Noise
Weight loss is one of the most complex and commonly mismanaged presentations in clinical practice. Beyond calorie restriction, a web of interconnected drivers, including insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, cortisol dysregulation, gut dysfunction, and disrupted appetite signalling, can silently undermine even the most motivated patient’s progress.
This webinar cuts through the noise. You’ll gain a clinically grounded, evidence-based framework for understanding why patients plateau, how physiology differs between men and women, and how to build targeted protocols that actually move the needle on body composition rather than just the number on the scale.
Effective Weight Loss Prescribing
- Macronutrient strategies and protein-forward approaches
- Know the mechanisms behind:
- OEA
- Magnesium
- Creatine
- Collagen
Kira will also tackle one of the most relevant and rapidly evolving areas of modern practice: integrating GLP-1 receptor agonists into a naturopathic framework, including how to support patients during treatment and structure effective exit protocols to prevent rebound weight regain.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this webinar, you’ll be able to:
- Decode Weight Loss Resistance Beyond Calorie Balance Understand the physiological drivers behind stubborn weight loss — insulin signalling, chronic inflammation, cortisol dysregulation, gut dysfunction, and disrupted appetite hormones — and how these patterns present differently in men and women.
- Apply Gender-Specific Strategies Without a Hormone-Centric Framework. Modify nutrition and lifestyle protocols based on real differences in fat distribution, muscle mass, and metabolic flexibility — avoiding the common clinical pitfalls of treating male and female patients with the same playbook.
- Build Body-Composition-First Nutrition Plans. Identify metabolic phenotypes, apply protein-forward macronutrient strategies, and shift the clinical focus from scale weight to lean mass preservation, satiety, and sustainable fat loss.
- Confidently Prescribe Evidence-Based Supplementation Master the clinical mechanisms and ideal patient presentations for OEA, Magnesium, Protein and Collagen, and Creatine Monohydrate — and learn how to combine them into targeted, synergistic protocols.
- Integrate GLP-1 Medications into Naturopathic Clinical Practice. Support patients on GLP-1s (preserving lean muscle, managing reduced appetite without compromising nutrient intake, addressing nausea and low energy) — and develop structured exit protocols to prevent rebound hyperphagia and weight regain post-cessation.
- Leverage Emerging & Often Overlooked Drivers of Fat Loss. Integrate sleep, circadian rhythm, cortisol patterns, appetite hormones (ghrelin, leptin), and NEAT into a comprehensive, sustainable fat loss strategy.
- Build Patient-Ready Protocols That Actually Work: Translate complex physiology into clear, actionable plans — recognise and avoid common clinical mistakes (under-eating, overtraining, poor recovery, metabolic adaptation) — and communicate protocols in a way that drives long-term adherence.

The GLP-1 Naturopathic Framework
- Support during treatment:Â Strategies to manage slowed gastric emptying, nausea, and reduced nutrient intake while prioritising protein-forward nutrition.
- The Exit Strategy:Â Utilising OEA and metabolic restoration to rebuild appetite regulation and prevent post-medication weight regain.
Prescribing for Body Composition
- Muscle Preservation:Â Leveraging creatine monohydrate and collagen to protect lean mass during active fat loss phases.
- Satiety Signalling:Â Applying the science of OEA (Oleoylethanolamide) to modulate appetite hormones and improve patient adherence.

Designs for Health Education
I really enjoy your webinars. The presenters are engaging and concise, presenting information pertinent to the clinician setting rather than emphasising research facts is welcome. Personal stories also provide an authentic connection. Thank you
Desley LockThanks for this clear, insightful information. I have found any of the webinars or seminars I’ve attended have been useful, with little nuggets that pop back into mind when relevant.
Roz FitzgeraldExcellent in-depth training, provides extensive and well-illustrated explanations and summaries, easy to understand. Really appreciate this comprehensive self-paced practitioner training.
Duong TranI really enjoyed the webinar on Autoimmunity. The simplicity of the treatment protocols and the results were mind-blowing! The research studies to back up treatment protocols are great resources too.
The DFH education and webinars are awesome. I have learnt so much, thank you.
