ADA Targets Obesity
Epidemic
90% of all people with newly
diagnosed type 2 diabetes are overweight.
"Weight Loss Matters" is an initiative
of the American Diabetes Association, aimed at increasing
awareness between diabetes and obesity.
Weight Loss Matters is aimed at health care professionals
as well as the general public. A key message of
this initiative is that it is possible to lose weight
and keep it off. Another key message is that too
often patients and their health care providers are
reluctant to discuss overweight and obesity.
The Weight Loss Matters initiative will make available
a host of materials designed to increase patient
and provider awareness of the relationship between
obesity and type 2 diabetes -- and to get them talking
together and working together to lose weight. Five
brochures have been developed to help patients understand
the relationship between diabetes and obesity, and
provide useful tips and advice on how to start losing
weight. Much more is coming for patients and health
care providers to help them focus on Weight Loss
Matters. See This Weeks, “Tools For Your Practice”
