We’ve been on quite the health kick lately talking about the role nutrition plays in helping our customers look and feel good from the inside out. To be another resource for you in that journey, Live Young Wellness Spa added a registered dietician nutritionist to our team and recently purchased a machine that eliminates the guesswork that comes with losing weight. It’s called the Resting Metabolic Rate Test, and trust us when we say it will have you shedding pounds in no time.
The Resting Metabolic Rate Test is a simple, 10-minute breath test that measures your resting metabolic rate. We want to measure this rate because it represents the exact number of calories your body burns at rest. Our RDN, Maggie Hennigan, can then use that metric to determine with 100% accuracy how much you should be eating.
An RMR test comes with a printout that explains:
- The basics of metabolism
- Your specific calorie burn
- How your metabolism compares to other individuals of the same age, sex, height, and weight
- How this number can be used to reach your specific health goals
Book your one-hour consultation now to learn more about the Resting Metabolic Rate Test.
There is a slew of benefits to getting an RMR test done. Perhaps the most striking is that it eliminates the guesswork. For example: if you don’t know how many calories you burn, how can a dietitian tell you how much to eat? This problem is solved with the RMR test. And as we work on improving dietary intake and quality muscle mass, this is a metric we can use to actually see your metabolism increase over time. Also, if taken at the beginning of HRT therapy, we can track metabolism increases over time in combination with hormone optimization and proper nutrition.
Developed originally for NASA, the Resting Metabolic Rate Test is something we now use at Live Young Wellness Spa!

More important than all the procedures that can help you look your best is your ability to take care of your body from the inside out. And that starts with proper nutrition. The science of eating right can be overwhelming when trying to go at it on your own. An RDN walks with you on that journey, translating everything into practical solutions that deliver results.
And with the Resting Metabolic Rate Test, we have yet another tool to help you reach those goals.
