Headaches
Arthritis
If you or someone you know has Rheumatoid Arthritis, or RA, you understand just how painful the condition can be. RA is an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks the joints, causing severe inflammation, swelling, and even disfigurement. While researchers continue to uncover the mechanisms behind how it works, what has been made clear is that obesity both plays a role in its development and presents challenges to its treatment.

Primary Care
Starting in January 2012, Medicare covers obesity counseling and treatments for patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or above if they see a primary care provider with specialized training in obesity. United Healthcare, Oxford Health, Aetna, Emblem, Empire BlueCross BlueShield, GHI, and 1199 (hospital workers' union) are following suit, and other private health insurers may offer similar coverage at a future date. If you have Medicare or other health insurance, check with the CMWL provider in your area to see whether he or she accepts insurance and for more details on what your insurance will cover.
High Cholesterol

Glaucoma
Chances are you’ve heard green tea extolled for a variety of health benefits—cancer prevention, cholesterol-lowering effects, and fighting eye diseases like glaucoma. But should you also be adding green tea to your medical weight loss program?

Internal Medicine
The Center for Medical Weight Loss (CMWL) is the largest network of non-surgical medical weight loss providers in the U.S. The company offers customized weight loss treatments administered exclusively by providers and based on a proprietary program developed by Dr. Michael Kaplan, who is board-certified in internal medicine and bariatric medicine (the specialty dealing with weight and metabolism). CMWL providers treat obesity as a chronic disease that needs to be managed long-term to be successful. Learn more about CMWL here.

Autism
It’s a very sensitive topic to be sure, but a new obesity study is making headlines in the news linking obesity and autism. Researchers in China analyzed previous studies linking maternal obesity and autism and found mothers suffering from obesity with high blood sugar levels were 47 percent more likely to have children with autism.

Depression
Psychiatry
A nationally recognized expert on how lifestyle and behavior affect obesity. Dr. Foreyt has served as principal investigator on major research grants funded by the National Institutes of Health on diet and weight loss. He currently serves as a professor with joint appointments in the Departments of Medicine and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.

Chemotherapy
The cancer treatments really wore me down, but after I completed my last rounds of chemotherapy and radiation, I felt more determined than ever to not let my weight lead to any additional health challenges – especially the heart disease I had so long feared. It was then that my oncologist referred me to Drs. Conroy and Hartsuch at The Center for Medical Weight Loss.

Minimally Invasive Surgery
Chief of the Division of Minimally Invasive Surgery and director of the Bariatric Surgery Program at Winthrop University Hospital in Mineola, New York. Dr. Brathwaite served as a surgical consultant to the New York State Health Department and New York Health Plan Association in the development of bariatric surgery guidelines for the state of New York. Dr. Brathwaite graduated from Howard University College of Medicine with his M.D.
