Researchers
believe that after smoking, obesity is the second leading preventable cause of
death in North America.
Severely overweight people who have tried diets
and exercise programs and not achieved lasting healthy weight loss may be
candidates for bariataric weight loss surgery through the College Hospital
Costa Mesa Bariatric Center. This is not a cure for morbid
obesity, but the loss of excess weight and the reduction of risks for
life-threatening conditions like diabetes, stroke and heart disease can
significantly increase both the length and quality of your life.
