Learn the FACTS behind the Obesity Epidemic

Americans are fatter than ever, and the percentages of obese Americans are increasing every year! Our course will help you understand the epidemic of obesity on a number of levels and prepare you to introduce and market the most profitable and effective services into your practice.

"Your courses have helped establish my wellness-oriented practice. I am no longer taking any new Medicare or Medicaid and am averaging 3 new insurance/cash patients a day!"

-Course Participant

The course, which contains over 200 citations from the medical literature, looks first at the evidence behind the staggering growth of Americans' weight and the scope of medical complications that can result. Factors such as exercise, sleep, and stress will be reviewed in depth. After the review of popular diets and a detailed description of the Glycemic Index, prescription and non-prescription supplements will be reviewed. Finally we will discuss some of the newest alternative theories behind weight gain and present meal replacements and other healthy and profitable options for your practice's weight loss program.

"PracticalCME’s video weight loss course distinctly stands head and shoulders above all others I have taken. Dr. Zengo’s presentation style is incredibly unique. It's as if he is telling a story, leaving you on the edge of your seat, as he demonstrates an uncanny ability to simplify what appears at first to be complex information. Moreover, PracticalCME’s instructors’ availability to answer your questions or clarify the material afterwards is unsurpassed by any other course I have ever witnessed. Consider yourself very lucky if you find yourself in a position to take any PracticalCME live or video course."

-Course Participant

The course includes tips to help your practice market and organize the efficient delivery of your new service. Whether your practice is solo and small, or busier with multiple practitioners, medically-supervised weight loss is a service most practices can't afford not to add. While many middle-class people will not splurge on Botox or Laser procedures, they are shelling out record amounts of money on prescription and over-the-counter diet aids with little or no success. This course will enable your practice to begin to cash in on this growing trend.

While this course can be taken alone, we recommend that you consider taking this course along with the Natural Hormone Balancing course taught the day before for maximum benefit and appreciation of the stress-induced hormone imbalances that can ultimately lead to weight gain.
