Obesity is an epidemic in America, but you don’t have to count yourself among the afflicted. Talk to your doctor at Century Medical and Dental Center at your next physical exam about the many options available for losing weight. Excess weight carries with it many dangerous side effects, from the psychological to the physical. You need expert assistance to find a healthy treatment plan that you can stick to. With the right guidance and support from the multi-disciplinary team at your Brooklyn medical practice, you can overcome obesity.
Obesity is a condition characterized by an excessive amount of body fat. If you’re overweight, you’re not alone, because in the United States, obesity rates are rising in both adults and children. Excessive body fat is more than just a cosmetic problem. Obesity increases your risk of other serious health problems, such as diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and some forms of cancer.
Your Brooklyn primary care doctor at Century Medical and Dental Center oversees all aspects of your health, in concert with a full team of specialists in the multi-disciplinary practice. This support includes providing guidance in losing weight, which can help you overcome obesity and work toward improved health.
You may have a good idea you’re obese if you’re carrying a lot of excess pounds. Extra fatty tissue may be distributed across all areas of your body. An increased waist circumference is a sign of excess fat in your abdomen, which may be affecting your internal organs.
Obesity in both adults and children can lead to other signs of deteriorating health. Examples of symptoms related to obesity include:
Obesity can also affect your mental health. You may feel depressed or self-conscious. You may even begin to draw away from other people and feel isolated. Take that first step toward treatment by calling the caring and empathetic staff at Century Medical and Dental Center.
