Dietetic Services
At Fit4Life we promote healthy eating to lose weight healthily and permanently.
A healthy diet has the potential of preventing many illnesses and generally increasing well being.
We have a broad spectrum of specifically tailored weight loss plans featured on our Services page.
We also offer body composition analysis, using the latest technology to calculate body fat, muscle, bone and body water effectively. Body composition is the amount of lean weight and fat weight that makes up total body weight. Lean body tissue is muscle, bone and water.
Whatever the total weight, lean and fat proportions need to be within established recommended limits in order to avoid the many health problems associated with being overweight. These include some cancers, high blood pressure, cholesterol, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, respiratory problems and kidney disorders.
Equally serious is the problem of having too little body fat, as body fat is vital for normal body functions. Awareness of correct body composition helps to diagnose anorexia nervosa, bulimia and the fear of obesity.
Sportsmen and women, also find this an invaluable tool to help improve physical performance.
