“Lose Weight and Improve your Health”
Obesity now represents one of the most important global public health issues through its rapidly increasing rate and association with a wide range of diseases. The likelihood of illness is greater with increasing Body Mass Index (BMI). For example a 40 year old with a BMI of >30kg/m2 might expect to die 6-7 years earlier compared to a person of normal weight.
Being overweight increases the chances of developing many diseases and conditions. These can include:
- Low mood, poor self esteem
- Heart disease
- Stroke
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes
- Gallstones
- Blood clotting disorders, varicose veins
- Osteoarthritis - in particular of the hips, knees and ankles
- Infertility and urogenital problems
- High blood lipids, fatty liver
- Cancers (Breast, stomach, colon, pancreas, kidney, uterus etc
Research has also shown that being overweight reduces one’s lifespan. The greater you are overweight, the larger the reduction in your living years.
We can help you take control of your weight problems, using tried and tested solutions and with the back up and support of medical professionals.
