Medical Weight Loss: What is it and Why Does it Work?
More than one in three adults in the United States are considered to have medical obesity. Having a higher weight can increase the risk of a variety of health problems, leading to an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and depression. Being overweight can reduce one’s quality of life, and one study found that obesity can also shorten one’s lifespan by as much as ten to twenty years.
Understanding how to lose weight can seem daunting, but collaborating with a healthcare provider on a medical weight loss plan can provide an ideal way to lose weight.
How to Lose Weight
The best way to lose weight is slowly, by making achievable changes to your eating and physical activity habits. Research has shown that eating less is not the complete answer. Your metabloism , microbes, genectis, neurobiology, and homones play a significant role in how we gain and lose weight. Managing your weight is a lifelong commitment – not just following a diet for a few weeks to drop kilograms. We are here for you!
