Weight loss: what is it?
Making sure that losing body fat is a healthy decision for you is the goal of the weight loss consultation.
Extra body fat can cause a variety of physical health issues as well as unpleasant situations, such as low self-esteem. Assad Mujtaba, DNP in Clifton, which serves the Paterson, Montclair, Passaic, and other North Jersey counties, focuses on helping our patients' lose weight.
Generally, weight loss is recommended for those who are overweight or obese or those who already have health conditions linked to the extra fat on their bodies. Some chronic conditions, like diabetes, may require weight loss as part of treatment.
Why should I consider weight loss?
