Obesity Epidemic Could Threaten Our Economy
If Canadian Health Care Professionals Aren’t Offering Health Promotion Advice that Gives People the Chance to be Truly and Fully Healthy…Then Who Will?
In recent years the burden of the growing global obesity epidemic has come into focus…this epidemic will be one of the greatest financial and public health challenges of the 21st century.
According to the World Health Organization overweight and obesity is the 5th leading risk factor for global deaths, but is also one of the most common modifiable risk factors (and therefore causes) of the world’s most common chronic diseases. These chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes, are by far the leading cause of mortality in the world, representing 60% of all deaths.

In response to the threat of obesity, millions of regular people (like your patients) are turning to the global weight loss market. This industry is exploding and is estimated to be worth over $585 Billion by 2014. You may think that’s good news…a sign that those afflicted by obesity have multiple options to address their weight issues…but it’s not.
Obesity Touches all Health Care Professionals
What if your clinic provided a medically safe, scientifically proven weight loss program that focused on education and behaviour/lifestyle modification…what if the addition of this service added revenue, without franchise fees, and placed little to no additional demands on your already busy schedule.
Obesity touches all health and wellness professionals, Chiropractors, General Practitioners, Nurses, Pharmacists, Dentists, Massage Therapists, Holistic Healers, Naturopaths, Etc. The link between obesity and many health issues is such that overcoming it may well require an all of society approach to public health…but that won’t happen overnight.so
In the meantime, front line health care professionals are uniquely positioned to broaden their health related services and expand the scope of one service oriented clinics into broader wellness centres. These centres can be designed to encourage and coach healthier lifestyle choices, to give patients the confidence they can make healthy lifestyle choices throughout their lives.
