nutrition

"let food be thy medicine"

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” The insight Hippocrates had over 2400 years ago could not be more true today. What used to be old is new again. Many may not know how important nutrition is to our health, but it truly is one of the cornerstones which is why it is one of our four pillars. With pillarMD, we will work together to formulate a nutrition plan that will incorporate a healthy diet that will meet your goals and can include meal replacements and personal recommendations for supplements that are tailored to you.

If you have been struggling with your weight for a long time, medication management may be something to consider. Being on a medicine for weight loss does not mean you are a failure. We all need help sometimes, and pillarMD is here for you every step of the way. If you feel medications may be beneficial, please reach out to us. One of our physicians will be able to prescribe these medications to you directly.

activity

move & groove

Movement matters, and that is why activity is one of the 4 pillars. We want to make sure everyone knows how important it is to keep our bodies moving. Activity does not have to be exercise and no one is suggesting you run a marathon. But movement after meals and keeping active in fun ways--like involving the family in a walk after dinner or swimming together can be a simple way to incorporate activity. Read more on our blog or chat with one of our pillarMD physicians for more ideas on how to include activity in your daily life.

long term weight maintenance

Habit is not something we are born with or that we inherently know how to do. Many of the habits of healthy living that may have come easy to us in the past seem harder today with our modern lives--convenience has led to bad habits, convenience foods, less meals together as a family, etc. At pillarMD, we can help you develop and build habits that are part of a healthy life. We know that change is hard, but at pillarMD we are here to support you to make changes that will last a lifetime. Read some of our blog articles or reach out to a pillarMD physician to discuss how you can start to make small changes to your habits which can make big changes to your life.
