Product Description
Contrary to popular belief, weight loss is not simply a matter of willpower. Obesity is a medical condition with causes ranging from genetic to environmental factors. For some people, even proper nutrition and exercise will not be enough to ensure the weight loss necessary for good health. When this is the case, individuals and their medical caregivers must explore other options. This book will introduce you to the therapeutic options, from medications to surgery, available when dieting isn't enough.
