Weight Loss Treatment: How It Works

Some treatments block fat absorption from the food you eat, allowing the fat to pass through your stool, helping you lose weight. Others work by signaling your brain that you're full, reducing overeating.

Who Is It For?

Weight loss treatments are suitable if your BMI is over 30, or over 28 with risk factors like Type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Use a BMI calculator to check. BMI guidelines may vary with ethnicity, as certain groups, like Black and Asian individuals, are at higher risk of conditions like diabetes at a BMI of 23 or higher.

Lifestyle Changes First

Before recommending medication, doctors typically advise dietary adjustments and increased physical activity. Tracking your food intake and activity with diaries and tools like pedometers can help identify habits to improve.

How Do Weight Loss Treatments Work?

Some treatments, like Orlistat and Xenical, prevent fat absorption, while others, like Mysimba and Saxenda, target brain receptors to reduce hunger. Both methods can promote effective weight loss.
