If you're motivated in finding a healthy and strong balance of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, you've come to the right place.
As an ISSA-certified fitness professional, and having obtained my Bachelor of Science and Master degree. I can help you set realistic goals and transform your health and your life for the better.
Preventive health is my practice. And it simply involves, helping individuals who desire wise counsel in recognizing and applying preventive practices to potential health problems. Before they become real problems.
Obesity in today's society is a major concern that I've been equipped to address in the community as a whole. World Health Organization (WH0) defines overweight and obesity as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health.
However, the size of individuals is not the only matter that is under the microscope lens of obesity. Obesity is also harmful to one's health as it is a risk factor for many conditions.
WHO in 1997 declared obesity as a major public health problem and a global epidemic. Since then, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) reported that, in the United States, roughly 112,000 deaths per year are directly related to obesity, and most of these deaths are individuals with a BMI (Body Mass or weight index) over 30. Yet, persons with a BMI over 40 have a reduced life expectancy.
Obesity also increases the risk of developing, high blood pressure (Hypertension), high and low (LDL and HDL) cholesterol, high levels of triglycerides (Dyslipidemia), Type 2 diabetes, Coronary heart, and Mental illness such as clinical depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders.
Yet, with understanding the most common causes of obesity are overeating and physical inactivity. PubMed resources indicate that body weight is also the result of genetics, metabolism, environment, behavior, and culture.
So, if body weight has been your struggle, I can help you look and feel your best. God's "Wisdom" lead us to discover our healthy weight, modify our diet and establish new relationships with foods, and, design a physical activity program just for us.
