n support of the vital link between healthy weight and fitness, Mercy Healthy Weight Solutions has opened the doors to a new office at the Mercy Fairfield HealthPlex (located at 3050 Mack Road).
As the area's most complete weight loss program, Mercy Healthy Weight Solutions has been seeing patients at its current office on Winton Road since the program began in early 2008.
The program's wide range of services includes medical and surgical weight loss, nutrition, counseling, and fitness - including a six month membership to the Mercy HealthPlex of their choice and a Wellness Coach to facilitate their fitness plan.
Obesity rates in the United States continue to rise, and with them are increased risks for serious conditions such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and sleep apnea. Fortunately, many of these health risks can be addressed and even eliminated through healthy weight loss. "The health effects of massive weight loss are dramatic," said Dr. Northup, "More than 88% of obese type 2 diabetics who have gastric bypass surgery are seeing complete resolution of the disease and elimination of all medication within days of the procedure."
Free patient information sessions are being held regularly for anyone who is interested.

Please note
All the advice offered here is based on personal experience (I am fighting against IBS, gastritis, ulcers and acute constipation). I am by no means a doctor and nor should my advice be taken for granted. Even though I am 100% sure what I say is correct, please take my articles only as guidelines and contact a medic for proper diagnosis and treatment for all your colon or abdomen related problems: irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, gastritis, as well as any symptoms you have. Stay healthy!
