Free Seminar in Apple Valley to Explore the Latest in Weight Loss
New FDA "Balloon" Procedure Among Topics Discussed.
- (1888PressRelease) September 06, 2016 - An estimated 71% of Americans are either obese or overweight with 75% of men and 67% of women falling into one or the other category. The multi-billion-dollar diet industry continues to grow unabated, yet so many of these programs fail, leaving dieters frustrated and desperate, not to mention being more prone to a host of life-threatening health implications like stroke, diabetes and heart disease.
So what are the latest tools in the arsenal against obesity? If traditional dieting has failed, what alternatives exist? To explore the latest options, West Medical is holding a series of free seminars. Among the topics covered is the new FDA approved gastric balloon. This minimally invasive procedure, that takes only minutes to perform, involves inserting a balloon into the stomach that is then filled with saline. Because it fills the volume, patients feel fuller faster and the pounds drop. This is but one of many tools that will be addressed at the seminar that will be held at 19015 Town Center Drive, Apple Valley that are scheduled for:
· Tuesday, September 13, 2016 - 10 a.m.
