Being overweight or obese can increase your risk of a wide variety of health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, stroke, and some cancers. Maintaining a healthy weight supports overall body function and will likely elevate your energy levels, improve your quality of sleep, and help you look and feel younger and stronger.
First, and most importantly, California Wellness Institute’s medically supervised weight-loss program is based on evidence-based protocols, which are custom-tailored to your specific body. Based on your bloodwork, Dr. Rajaratnam identifies and addresses any hormonal or chemical imbalances that may be inhibiting your health and ability to maintain a healthy weight. He then determines the precise caloric needs, meal plan, exercise program and medical support you need to attain your personal level of optimum health. It is anything but a one-size-fits-all approach.
It starts with a conversation. We want to find out about your medical history, lifestyle and goals. Dr. Rajaratnam then conducts a thorough physical exam and extensive lab work. He uses this information to create a highly personalized weight-loss program designed just for you. Some of the therapies Dr. Rajaratnam may recommend to support your weight-loss journey, include IV nutrient therapy, hormonal support, colon hydrotherapy and/or organ detox therapy. You will meet with the professionals at California Wellness Institute regularly to monitor your progress and health as well as make any necessary adjustments to your program along the way.
At California Wellness Institute, we believe in tailoring our approach to the unique needs of each individual. Dr. Rajaratnam starts with a comprehensive consultation, including a physical exam and lab tests. Based on his findings, he creates an appropriate program. Interventions included in the program may include:

- Medically assisted weight loss – With the myriad changes occurring in our bodies as we age, it’s common to put on a few extra pounds each year.

Anti-aging medicine focuses on the detection, prevention, and treatment of diseases and health issues often associated with aging. The practice uses techniques designed to reverse the effects of aging and prevent future maladies, which enhances and protects your health.
As you age your body’s ability to repair and generate new cells slows, which can increase your risk for a variety of diseases. Some types of anti-aging medicine aim to boost your body’s healing response, which slows the aging process. Additionally, the production of certain hormones decreases as we age, which can disrupt your health, energy levels, and quality of life. After participating in the Living Younger Program, patients find they feel better, stay stronger, and have more stamina.
