Why you should be scared of Metabolic Syndrome |
|
Did you know that excessive body weight can lead to Metabolic Syndrome?
Metabolic syndrome is a scary condition that increases your risk of developing diabetes by five times; doubles your risk of dying form a heart attack and triples your risk of dying from a stroke!
Obesity, high blood pressure, raised cholesterol and abnormal blood sugar: a combination of these puts you at a very high risk of serious cardiovascular disease and diabetes
Pretty scary isn’t it? The good news is that managing your weight will improve all aspects of this condition. You should be doing a basic medical check-up that screens for these factors every 6 to 12 months…and you can do it at any of our clinics (Click here for more information)
You’ve accepted the challenge to lose weight: now accept the challenge to check your medical status. Go to your nearest Pick n Pay clinic or your general practitioner.

Count your calories before you count your blessings! |
|
Christmas decorations have been on sale since the beginning of October, encouraging us to Buy! Buy! Buy! Travel agents are saying Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! you can still book a December or New Year’s holiday…
We all know what this means, from a weight-loss perspective that is! We will add on a couple of the fatty ones. So, what’s to be done? Lose an extra kilo or two before the festive season begins, then the damage is limited. And yes, remember i-slim damage control that will further help you to limit the excesses of the festive season.
So, are we all going to put in that extra effort now?
