Guiding the Bio Wellness Center, Dr. Arthur Copes is a Baton Rouge professional who offers evidence-based, naturopathic pathways to wellness. Recognized for his work on scoliosis, Dr. Arthur Copes also oversees professionally-developed weight loss programs designed to maximize individual results.

Such programs do not simply focus on changes to diet and lifestyle, but address thyroid-related hormonal imbalances and evaluation of organ function spanning pancreas, liver, gallbladder, and small intestine. Dysfunction in these organs is often related to weight gains.

Other aspects of the program include hormone, gut, blood, and urine panels, as well as medical gene testing. Through these noninvasive assessments the underlying reasons for tiredness and fatigue as well as unexpected weight gain may be uncovered.

With education a major aspect of treatment, Bio Wellness Center patients gain a better understanding of how their bodies function and pathways toward gradual fat reduction that can attain long term results. Supplements such as herbs, natural vitamins, and enzymes are also incorporated in boosting gut function and cell metabolism and encouraging appetite control.
