Topics of Interest WEIGHT MANAGEMENT AT NATURE'S HEALTHCARE A successful weight control strategy involves more than just weight loss. It also involves weight maintenance once weight loss is achieved. Many weight loss programs offer only that. Weight loss, with no attention being given to the more important issue of weight maintenance. The result is typically weight loss followed inevitably by weight re-gain. At Nature's Healthcare, we recognize this, and that's why we refer to our program as a "weight management" program rather than a weight loss program. We recognize that the keys to successful weight management are behavioral, lifestyle, and dietary changes. Our program is designed to provide the information, structure, and guidance needed to implement these changes. As well, our medical doctor can prescribe an appetite suppressant as needed to control hunger and allow for smaller portions while the dietary and life style changes are being developed. For those patients interested in help using alternative treatment methods, our Doctor of Oriental Medicine can provide herbal remedies known to have appetite-suppressing properties. Acupuncture has also been effective at reducing cravings, for those patients in whom this is an issue. Since these methods are not effective by themselves, any more than an appetite suppressant is effective by itself, we use these alternative treatment methods within the context of our comprehensive treatment program that addresses the dietary, lifestyle, and behavioral changes.
