Welcome to Empower Health.

A Utah-Based metabolic health and weight loss clinic.

The clinic's name is based on our core mission: To empower every patient with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve long-term weight loss and metabolic health.

Metabolic health.. what is that?

Long-term weight loss is tightly linked to your metabolic health. That's why it's so important to understand what metabolic health actually is.

Metabolic health is defined as having ideal levels of triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, and waist circumference without the use of medications.

The more abnormalities you have in these areas the higher your direct risk for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and dementia.

That’s why at Empower Health we take the focus off “going on a diet” and instead focus on your metabolic health to facilitate your long-term health and weight loss.

Poor metabolic health isn’t restricted to those who are obese. You can be “skinny” and have worse metabolic health than someone 100 lbs heavier than you.

A 2019 study shows that only 12% of American adults are metabolically healthy. They also found that of those with so called "normal weights", less than one-third were metabolically healthy.

Already metabolically healthy?

That’s great! We can help you lose weight too. Our personalized program works across all health spectrums.
‍
Our approach addresses the root cause of weight gain or worsening health problems. It offers personalized solutions for achieving long-term well-being that focus on nutrition, mental health, and sustainable lifestyle change.

About Dr. Trujillo

Dr. Nick Trujillo is a weight loss specialist & certified metabolic health practitioner with board certifications in both Family Medicine & Obesity Medicine as well as a degree in Behavioral Psychology.

In 2016, he created the highly successful Granger Metabolic Health & Weight Management program. The program transformed thousands of lives, by facilitating long-lasting weight loss, as well as freedom from medications, and chronic condition reversal.

Over time Dr. Trujillo realized that the program could more effectively help people and make a longer-lasting impact outside of an insurance-based model. The standard model which limited his ability to give patients the time and care they needed.

That’s why in 2020, he left Granger to open his own independent clinic.

Today, Empower Health clinic runs on a transparent membership model that allows patients to receive long-term care through personalized plans, intensive guided sessions, and close consultation.

With Dr. Trujillo's guidance, patients at Empower Health have the support of an empathetic physician who invests all the time and attention they need to make long-lasting change in their life.

Dr. Trujillo is such a valuable part of my health journey. Visits with him provide accountability as well as encouragement and a seemingly unending number of valuable tools to help battle my struggles not only with my weight, but with life in general. Without exception, I leave his office feeling encouraged, motivated, and empowered.

He’s a Dr, therapist, coach, cheerleader and motivational speaker all rolled into one. His arsenal of tips and tools will help you succeed. I especially like that he is flexible in his thinking and that he listens carefully so he can treat the whole person. His techniques work! I’ve lost weight, improved my sleep, and handle stress better. The best call I made.

Dr. Trujillo has made a huge impact on the way I view and manage my food and diet. He is attentive, and non-judgemental and works to get to the root of the issues instead of prescribing “bandaids” that will only temporarily alleviate the issues at hand.
