Most of the problems that patients have are made worse or exacerbated by weight gain. Things like ankle arthritis, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendonitis, stress fractures, even bunion deformities and heel spurs can all benefit from weigh loss.

In 1998 I started writing my first edition of ‘Body of Knowledge” – a weight management and wellness system that helps patients lose fat mass, maintain or gain lean mass and improve overall health: http://BOKsystems.com

The principles of eating and exercise are designed to help people:
1. Control the Fat Storage Hormone with our B-OK Eating Rx
2. Build a Fat Burning metabolism with our B-OK Activity Rx

In short, we concentrate on body composition and laboratory values like blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure. If patients know what to do, how to do it AND why they are doing it, then they can do it on their own.
