Being overweight can negatively impact health, increasing the risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and various types of cancer. Pre-diabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are elevated, and the body does not use insulin properly. If left untreated, pre-diabetes can develop into diabetes, leading to potential damage to cells, nerves, and organs, as well as heart disease and other complications.
Leumit’s weight loss workshop is designed for customers over the age of 18 with a BMI of 27 or higher or those diagnosed with pre-diabetes. The program includes 10 weekly sessions led by a clinical dietitian, with each session lasting an hour and a half.
