Weight Management Taking care of you

Follow us on or visit us at mayberrypharmacy.co.uk

Being a healthy and happy weight is important to us all.

And although many will have their own weight targets and goals, getting there can be easy for some and harder for others.

Losing and maintaining a healthy weight doesn’t have to be difficult though.

At your local Mayberry Pharmacy you’ll find our team of healthcare professionals are there to help you reach the healthy weight you want to be. With friendly, expert advice and effective treatment aids we’ll support you along the way and help you reach your goals.

What does a weight management consultation involve?

Your pharmacist will sit down with you in a private consultation room and ask you some questions about your general health and diet. They might check your blood pressure - just to get a clearer picture of your health - before taking a measurement of your weight. They will then explain how your current weight relates to your health using a height/weight chart and offer advice on changes that may help you. They can also discuss with you some of the supplements available that may support you if you need to lose weight to improve your health.
