The present invention is a method of treating various diseases and conditions through administering a substantial caloric load coupled with administration of hormone to stimulate the body to convert that caloric load and increase metabolism in at least some cells. Body functioning converts intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as a part of normal cell function. Complex control systems balance caloric inputs by managing internal hormone levels to consume, store, or eliminate various types of caloric inputs. This invention stimulates these systems to increase metabolism of cells within the body and thereby treat various diseases and conditions. Many patients find their metabolism after treatment to be in better balance, and the patients health improved.
