Weight Loss Counseling crucial to addressing obesity epidemic

Steve - I read a study recently that came from Journal for Nurse Practitioners. They agree that there is more of a need for weight loss counseling in a primary care setting. While very effective, it is performed too infrequently by nurses and physicians. The drawbacks include lack of time, training, and reimbursement.

Nutritional Concepts certainly does not have a problem with lack of time and training.
