Weight Loss

How does weight loss improve my health?

Carrying extra weight is one of the top risk factors for osteoarthritis. Fat cells continuously produce hormones and other substances that cause body-wide inflammation. The more fat you carry, the more likely you are to develop:

• High blood pressure
• High cholesterol
• Type 2 diabetes
• Heart disease
• Sleep apnea
• Liver disease
• Kidney disease

Being overweight also raises your risk of developing 13 types of cancer, including colon cancer.

What are the benefits of medically supervised weight loss?

Uncharted Healthcare offers a one-on-one weight loss program with access to expert medical support. This approach gives you the best chance of reaching your weight loss goals.

Many overweight people have nutritional deficiencies or hormone imbalances that affect their ability to lose weight. You may also have a chronic health condition that affects your meal planning. 

When you join a medically supervised weight loss program, your provider identifies and treats health concerns. After a thorough evaluation and consultation, your wellness coach creates an individualized and comprehensive weight loss plan.

Support of a team

Your chances of success increase when you have an experienced coach and a medical team supporting your hard work.

In addition to defining your weight loss goals and creating a sustainable plan, the team holds you accountable. They offer encouragement and advice along the way, helping you stick with your plan and lose weight.
