Everyone knows that it’s healthy to lose weight if you’re carrying excess pounds – as most people are. What may be less obvious is that losing weight not only improves your quality of life, but also gives you more years with which to enjoy it! A recent article on verywellhealth.com cites that “The WHO estimates that at least 2.8 million people worldwide die each year due to being overweight or obese.” Conversely, it explains that “Obesity has been linked to a number of chronic diseases, including Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, to name a few.” Obesity is a problem that much of the country has been struggling with for years now – so don’t feel alone if you’ve been struggling too!
At The Youth Fountain in Freehold, New Jersey, it is our privilege to be able to provide a range of options to help you take back your life by losing those dangerous extra pounds. Here’s what we can do:
Medically-Supervised Weight Loss
Some medical professionals approach weight loss as another opportunity to write the patient a prescription. However, that’s not how Dr. Shakov does it here at The Youth Fountain. With medically-supervised weight loss, Dr. Shakov takes into consideration your eating habits, background, overall build, lifestyle, and more in order to develop a plan that incorporates dietary and behavioral adjustments along with supplements and, if needed, possible pharmaceutical adjuncts to help you achieve a realistic goal. Dr. Shakov sees you as a whole, and not just pounds to lose. Each patient’s weight loss needs and goals are unique, and with medical weight loss, you will get the customized plan you need.
NutriMed®
This low-calorie, liquid-based diet consists of meal replacements that are low in calories but high in protein, vitamins, and minerals to meet your daily nutrition requirements. We’ll tailor your NutriMed treatment to your individual weight goals and provide you with the tools you need to achieve and maintain your weight loss goals for the long term.
Lipotropic Injections
This involves the injection of a group of compounds that are safe and boost your metabolism, giving you energy while reducing your caloric intake. When used as part of a diet plan, these injections may initiate and enhance additional weight loss. A lipotropic injection is made up of three things: methionine, inositol, and choline. Other common ingredients include B vitamins and L-carnitine. Lipotropic injections are not a magic bullet on their own, but together with a smart diet and exercise plan, they can help to boost your metabolism, energy level, and nutrient absorption, so your diet and exercise can be more effective toward your goals!ident and carefree, wearing whatever you’d like whenever you’d like! It’s a truly life-changing feeling.
hCG
hCG is the pregnancy hormone found in the human body. When used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet, it has been shown to help burn fat, reduce inches, and a result in a more sustainable weight loss than with a diet alone. hCG injections are daily and self-administered, after you’ve had your initial consultation with Dr. Shakov. After that, you’ll maintain scheduled visits with the doctor throughout your weight loss journey. If you need an extra boost to get started on an effective diet that improves your overall health, hCG injections are a great option to consider.
There are so many different ways to find and sustain a healthier lifestyle, so you can enjoy more of your life, for longer! Get started on discovering your own weight loss journey by calling (732) 334-3176 or request a consultation online.
