Our Process

Recent studies have shown that 55% of the American population is overweight and about 10% is severely obese, and the numbers are growing. There is not a specific cause or reason for this health problem; instead, it is the combination of several different factors. Undoubtedly, genes play a big role in how an individual metabolizes food. The social economic environment plays a role in shaping an individual's lifestyle. In the past few years, life has become more sedentary, with the average person spending the majority of the time working behind a desk and then coming home to watch TV or surf the Internet.
