WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM with AIH DOCTOR

WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM with AIH DOCTOR

05/02/2024

Obesity is a chronic condition where abnormal or excessive fat accumulation in the body leads to decreased health, increased risk of death, and chronic complications such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and depression. Moreover, obesity can affect self-confidence, impacting mental well-being and overall quality of life.

Currently, Vietnam has the fastest-growing obesity rate in Southeast Asia, at 6.3% per year in adults and 9.8% per year in children. The WHO and the American Medical Association (AMA) recognize obesity as a complex chronic disease that requires long-term management and treatment.

Understanding the need for safe weight loss and obesity treatment, the American International Hospital (AIH) has recently introduced the program 'Weight Loss with AIH Doctor.' This program adopts a completely new approach with the collaboration of specialized interdisciplinary methods from a team of highly skilled doctors, combined with nutrition, exercise, and supportive medication:
 
  • Individualized treatment program with support and coordination from Endocrinology and Nutrition doctors. This allows doctors to tailor appropriate interventions for overweight and obese cases.
  • If strictly adhered to, the 'Weight Loss with AIH Doctor' program can lead to a reduction of 5% of body weight within a 5-week course and up to 10% of body weight after a 12-week course.
  • Use of DEXA scanning, a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry tool, to accurately measure body composition. This helps determine excess fat precisely, allowing doctors to adjust a personalized weight loss plan for everyone.
  • Maintain weight loss combined with prevention and treatment of co-morbidities (e.g., reducing medication for diabetes, heart disease). This helps you manage chronic diseases and associated health issues safely throughout your weight loss journey.
  • The medication usage in the weight loss support regimen follows the guidelines set by the Ministry of Health and WHO. The dosage of medication will be prescribed by the doctor based on individual cases to ensure safe and appropriate use.
  • Build sustainable eating and exercise habits to prevent weight regain after the program.
