Weight Management & Obesity (Adult) Program

Obesity affects over 40% of the US population. It is a complex metabolic disease that results from both our genetic makeup and environmental factors.

As an individual’s Body Mass Index (BMI) rises above 25 (the cut-point is lower in some racial/ethnic populations), the risk of developing other health conditions increases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers.
