Medical Weight Loss

Recent studies indicate that a full two-third or perhaps more Americans are either overweight or obese…That equals to about 200 millions Americans, half of whom (100 million) are at a high risk of becoming diabetic. While the cause of obesity are complicated, I firmly believe that obesity is the mother of all diseases. It leads to conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, strokes, heart attacks, joint degradation, depression, anxiety, feeling of low self esteem and even various types of cancers. And, once you become overweight, I am sure most of have felt helpless in losing that weight. It is a daily struggles with losing 5 pounds through extreme measures only to gain 6 or 7 pounds back in a single weekend or vacation, birthday party, Christmas, holidays etc. This type of situation leads to significant stress leading to production of high levels of stress hormones making weight loss next to impossible. In fact, when a person loses weight, the body goes into a crises mode to prevent further weight loss.
