The Safe Way to Lose Weight
Dr. Jain, Nurse Practitioner Rita Keeling, and the medical weight loss program at MediSlim can help you lose weight and keep it off long-term through lifestyle changes in diet and exercise. With the help of medications, nutrition, and behavioral counseling, you can finally lose weight and overcome the barriers that have prevented you from succeeding in the past against your battle with obesity.
As some of you may know, losing weight without a physician supervised program is exceedingly difficult and potentially dangerous. Dr. Jain and Rita offer the support and motivation necessary to help you lose weight and begin living a healthier lifestyle.
Medical supervision and support is important to the weight loss process because obesity is a medical concern. Obesity can lead to the development of a variety of serious medical conditions, including:
-
Type-2 diabetes
-
Cardiovascular disease
-
Gallstones
-
Hypertension
-
High Cholesterol
-
Sleep Apnea
-
Stroke
-
Infertility
-
Osteoarthritis
-
Cancer
Through the help of medical weight loss you can decrease your risk of developing these conditions and, in some circumstances, even treat and reverse illnesses by losing weight.
A few of the largest differences between generic weight loss methods and medically supported weight loss programs are the support and tools that are available as part of a medical weight loss program. Medical weight loss programs feature drug therapy including the use of appetite suppressants, vitamins and supplements that will enhance your own weight loss efforts by helping you to cut your calorie intake and control hunger. Generic weight loss methods often encourage you to cut your calorie intake, but do so without providing support or medical guidance to answer your questions, address medical concerns, and help you along the way.
