Everybody’s health journey is different. For some, losing a few pounds is a self-motivator. Others may need support and accountability. Whatever your health journey, or wherever you are in the process, we want to help you accomplish your goals for a better, healthier you.
According to a UCLA study, eight -five percent of people who diet without behavioral support gain the weight back within two years. Not only did they gain the weight back, but they added additional weight on top of that.
Excess body weight is often a sign of poor health. As body fat gathers around your organs, it increases blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar; turning on a cascade of inflammatory pathways that erode the body’s defenses. This cluster of symptoms, called metabolic syndrome, is currently attacking the health of over 70 millions Americans.
