When Overweight Threatens Your Health



During the first interview, the practitioner will also appreciate the potential dangers posed your overweight for your health and it will look especially factors that could contribute to increase the impact of overweight on your cardiovascular system (hypertension, diabetes .. .). Repercussions on the articular system (osteoarthritis of the hips and knees), respiratory problems, sleep apnea, are also elements which are involved in treatment choices and modulate support, which is never limited to weight loss.

Some basic tests like blood glucose, lipid profile, or sometimes additional tests may therefore be prescribed during this initial consultation.

After the interview, the practitioner will ask you in general to undertake a food survey with a dietician. During one week, you will note in a notebook all the foods you eat each day during meals, which will identify errors and help you diet, then, to correct them.
