Treatment focus
Even losing 5% of your body weight improves cardiac health
Many people struggle to lose weight. The Western diet is rich in fat and sugar and we grew up with those habits.
In 2020, an injecttable drug was licensed in the UK to aid weight loss. The drug acts as an appetite suppressant and helps to kick start healthy weight loss and lifestyle changes. It is licensed for patients with a BMI over 30 or those with a BMI of over 27 and a co-morbidity such as high blood pressure or heart disease.
A thorough medical check up is given at consultation to assess suitability for the programme. Consults are free but the programme itself doesn’t come cheap! I have a Post Grad diploma in Diabetes Management and Nutrition so I can help with lifestyle changes and coach you through your journey.
