Weight Loss
More and more Americans living in the “Fast Food Nation” are seeking weight-loss products and treatment in an effort to better their health and appearance.
Today’s weight-loss market is flooded with pills, drinks, and other gimmicks to help shed pounds. If you really want to lose the weight, however, we suggest consulting a physician who can help design a diet and treatment plan that is bested suited for your personal situation.
The Mayo Clinic warns against using popular drug store remedies such as Alli, Chitosan, bitter orange, ephedra, hoodia, and guar gum to achieve weight loss. These remedies have little proof attached to their claims of weight-loss and may cause uncomfortable or life-threatening side effects.
While most over-the-counter products fail at assisting with weight loss, there are prescription drugs that can help you lose the weight. Typically, an individual must be overweight with a body mass index (BMI) of more than 30 or have a BMI over 27 with complications from obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes or sleep apnea, to receive prescription medication. However, that decision is largely up to your physician.In certain situations, it may be appropriate to undergo surgery for the purpose of weight-loss. Currently gastric bypass, Lap-Band, and liposuction are popular methods of surgical weight loss treatment.
