Are there any other treatments for overweight?

    Last Updated: October 25, 2023

    Although beneficial for weight loss, aerobic and resistance training can also help with issues that may come with overweight, such as lowering blood pressure, improving insulin sensitivity, decreasing appetite, and enhancing quality of life.[1] Time-restricted feeding may also be effective for weight loss and improving cardiometabolic risk factors in people with overweight.[2][3]
