Beauty Tips with Dr. Burkenstock: Dr. B. discusses weight loss

Are you one of those yo-yo dieters that don’t ever seem to win? More importantly, you may have a silent decease lurking in the background. I had a patient, Janice, she came to us with a blood pressure of 186/104 which is a very high blood pressure.

Janice Larmeu, patient, said, “It was scary I had no idea. She recommended the Mediterranean diet. That’s lean proteins, a lot of vegetables, fruits, nuts.”

With time, patience, education, and training, not only have we gotten her blood pressure down, to the 110s/80s. She’s also lost 60 pounds.

Larmeu said,“I feel wonderful. Generally, very healthy.”

So the next time you are thinking about losing weight, talk to your physician, make sure it’s a weight loss program that has nutritional counselors on duty, that can serve you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, along with customized plans that can show you exactly what sort of foods, type of foods, type of menu plans that may work for you.
