Weight Management

A significant amount of weight can be lost with the aid of medications and a medical professional in this program.

ADVANCE PREVENTIVE Medicine as it appears in its name is a place to prevent diseases and pathologies which can have long-term complications.

Obesity has become a major problem in the United States. The national obesity rate alone has increased to 200% from 1985 to 2010. Our mission in the health industry is to help patients with obesity problems, to lose weight, and to avoid consequences due to being overweight.

Identifying Obesity

Obesity is defined as a BMI of 30 or higher. High calorie intake in food, and extensive eating habits will contribute to being overweight. Eating out is another concern due to the higher fat and sugar/salt intake within the food.

Complications

Gaining weight is gradual and generally is not noticeable right away. Obesity is a risk factor for coronary artery disease, type two diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, breast cancer, endometrial, prostate cancer, and colon cancer. Weight loss reverses all these risk factors.
