The GetFit GLP1 Weight Loss and Cardiometabolic Program introduces
Dr. MO’s 20-N-8 Plan!
HISTORY OF DR. MO’S 20-N-8 WEIGHT LOSS PLAN
Dr. MO’s 20-N-8” Weight Loss Plan was developed by Dr. MO, CEO and Medical Director of the Wellness Homes of Chicago. The program is the product of his personal experience with obesity and failing cardiometabolic health. At 280 lbs, Dr. MO was working a demanding schedule, and taking medications to treat high cholesterol, hypertension and diabetes. Through this shared health experience, Dr. MO identified a major disparity in the ability to access wellness care that focused on cardiometabolic conditions and obesity. Dr. MO identified that although better pharmacological interventions are available, patients still cannot access them. Through hundreds of patients’ referrals for cardiometabolic and obesity management, he identified that primary care providers are doing a great job managing patients’ diabetes, HIV, cholesterol, and their hypertension, but they simply do not have the resources to manage obesity. At last report, only 6.8% of the US population has optimal cardiometabolic health. That’s less than one out of every 14 people!
PLAN GOAL
Promote sustainable weight loss and to improve the patient’s overall cardiometabolic health by implementing evidence-based interventions to decrease inflammation. Science has proven that chronic, low-grade inflammation can turn into a silent killer that contributes to cardiovascular disease, and cancer.
