Weight Management

Weight Control and Health
Maintaining a healthy weight not only affects how you look but plays a crucial role in preventing many diseases and promoting overall well-being. Over 39% of adults worldwide are overweight, about 13% are obese.

Why is Weight Control Important?
A healthy weight can significantly reduce the risk of chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and some cancers. Excess weight can lead to insulin resistance, which can cause diabetes and plaque buildup in arteries, increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
