Medical weight loss offers numerous benefits that extend beyond shedding pounds. Here are some key advantages:
Our medical weight loss programs are customized to each individual, considering factors such as medical history, current health status, and personal goals. This personalized approach ensures that the plan is both effective and sustainable.
We utilize scientifically proven methods to help patients lose weight safely and effectively. This includes nutritional counseling, exercise plans, and, when necessary, prescription medications or other medical interventions.
Our team provides ongoing support and monitoring to help patients stay on track. Regular check-ins, progress tracking, and adjustments to the plan ensure that patients are continuously moving towards their goals.
Losing weight can significantly reduce the risk of chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Patients often experience improved energy levels, better sleep, and enhanced mental well-being.
Unlike quick-fix solutions, our medical weight loss programs are designed for long-term success. We teach patients sustainable lifestyle habits that help them maintain their weight loss and overall health.
Medical weight loss is suitable for a wide range of individuals, including:
Individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher can benefit from a structured, medically supervised weight loss program.
If you have conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea that are exacerbated by excess weight, medical weight loss can help manage these issues.
If you’ve tried diets, exercise programs, or weight loss supplements without achieving lasting results, a medical weight loss program may provide the structured, personalized approach you need.
Even if you don’t have a significant amount of weight to lose, medical weight loss can help you adopt healthier habits and improve your overall well-being.
Medical weight loss can effectively address a variety of conditions related to excess weight, including:
Losing weight can improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control, reducing the need for medications.
Weight loss can lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.
Reducing weight can alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnea, leading to better sleep quality and overall health.
Excess weight puts additional strain on joints, exacerbating pain and inflammation. Weight loss can relieve this pressure and improve mobility.
Weight loss can lower cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation, and improve heart health.
Losing weight can reduce fat accumulation in the liver, improving liver function and reducing the risk of liver disease.
Before seeking medical weight loss treatment, there are several steps you can take at home to begin your weight loss journey:
Focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive amounts of unhealthy fats.
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week. This can include activities such as walking, swimming, or cycling.
Drinking plenty of water can help control hunger and support overall health. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water per day.
Poor sleep can contribute to weight gain. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night.
Keep track of your food intake, exercise, and weight to identify patterns and make necessary adjustments.
At Everest Regenerative Medicine, we follow a thorough process to determine if medical weight loss is right for you:
During your first visit, our healthcare providers will conduct a comprehensive assessment, including a review of your medical history, current health status, and weight loss goals.
A physical examination helps identify any underlying health conditions that may affect your weight loss journey.
We may recommend diagnostic tests, such as blood work or metabolic assessments, to gather more information about your health and tailor your treatment plan accordingly.
Based on the information gathered, we will create a personalized weight loss plan that includes dietary recommendations, exercise guidelines, and any necessary medical interventions.
Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress, make adjustments to your plan, and provide the support you need to stay on track.
