TUCSON, AZ–(Marketwired – November 24, 2016) – Over 36% of Americans are obese, frequently dealing with serious health issues like heart disease, stroke, and certain types of cancer. There over over 3 million cases of type 2 diabetes in the U.S. every year, for instance, and food addiction, one of the leading causes of unmoderated weight gain, remains a prevalent issue. Scientific evidence consistently indicates that food addiction makes it practically impossible for people to abstain from certain types of food or reduce consumption, even when faced with evident health risks. Many people simply lose control and are unable to moderate the consumption of tasty but fattening foods like sweets and processed snacks. However, even modest weight loss (10% or less), potentially through the moderation of certain types of food, can make a huge difference in controlling or preventing obesity while promoting overall health.
