Healthy for Life Program Options |

Physician developed, clinically tested, safely used by thousands…
RenuHealth offers access to Dr. Ray Strand’s Healthy for Life Program which is physician developed and clinically tested. Dr. Strand has successfully used this program for over 10 years in his private family practice; thousands of participants have safely completed the program.
Dr. Strand developed the Healthy for Life Program primarily to help people reduce the effects of the metabolic syndrome (also know as syndrome X or insulin resistance). The metabolic syndrome is a group of conditions associated with your body’s metabolism. They include:
- High blood pressure
- Elevated fasting blood sugars
- Excess body weight, especially around the waist
- Abnormal cholesterol level: low HDL cholesterol and high triglycerides
While any of these conditions can be serious by itself, in combination they can dramatically increase your chances of developing diabetes, heart disease, stroke, or other potentially life-threatening illnesses. The focus of the program is to provide an opportunity to reduce the effects of the metabolic syndrome.
Convenient, supported by team leaders, affordable…
The Healthy for Life Program is Internet-based. Individuals participate in the privacy and convenience of their own homes instead of adding another meeting to their busy schedules. Guidance, education, motivation and accountability are provided online. Enrollees choose between the 12 week “coached program” (includes a personal coach) or the very affordable 12 week “self-directed” program. Both options include support from a RenuHealth certified team leader.
