It's no secret that many of today's most prevalent medical issues stem from obesity and a lack of physical fitness. As a physician, you probably advise patients daily to lose excess weight and take better care of their bodies in order to treat and prevent a variety of medical concerns. The Weight Management and Medical Fitness  course at Empire Medical will help equip you with the tools necessary to encourage your patients to lose the weight they need to in order to maintain their health.

During this course, you will learn about the latest weight loss programs, including their nutritional needs, fitness goals, and meal plans. The instructor will cover the Zone diets, South Beach diets, diets based on the glycemic index, and many other popular weight loss plans. The course will educate you about what program is best for what patient, keeping in mind their medical conditions and body type. You will also learn about hormone levels and stress as they contribute to weight loss, and what you and your patients can do to manage them. Empire Medical's program teaches you how to streamline the diet plans to decrease paperwork and confusion for you, your patients, and your staff. You will also leave with a comprehensive understanding of nutriceuticals and the supplements industry, including how to properly retail them in conjunction with your patient's specific diet plant.
