A close relative of the microorganism that causes tuberculosis in humans has been found to form spores. This is a sensational finding because researchers have long been convinced that these kinds of bacteria - the mycobacteria - were incapable of forming spores. Leif Kirsebom"s research group at Uppsala University now has photographic proof, obtained while working with the bacteria that causes tuberculosis in fish, to challenge this long-held belief.

WellQuest Launches Medically Supervised Weight Loss Program

WellQuest"s unique approach to weight loss addresses a growing $2 billion market. WellQuest"s approach to clients" weight loss offers a complete continuum of care that includes physician supervision, education, counseling, products and maintenance follow-up. WellQuest"s individually tailored, physician supervised protocol is designed to help clients achieve their weight loss goals. Treatment begins with an initial physician consultation to measure the client"s metabolic rate; water, muscle and fat composition; as well as conditions that may impact medical issues such as diabetes or high blood pressure. An individually tailored 12-week program is implemented which focuses on creating a long term shift in lifestyle and mindset towards nutrition and exercise. As clients graduate from the 12-week phase, they transition into a self-directed lifestyle which is supported by WellQuest"s Optimum Health Program, a component of WellQuest"s wellness services. WellQuest intends to replicate its medically supervised weight loss program by implementing it in new centers that the company plans to open in the future. New programs, such as the weight loss program, are created and launched in the Bentonville, Arkansas flagship location and are designed to be replicated at future centers.

Helping our clients to reach and maintain a healthy weight level is something WellQuest is ideally positioned to do through our integrative approach to health and wellness. Combining the res and expertise from our medical clinic, our wellness center, and our medical aesthetics offerings, we take a comprehensive approach to helping our clients get well, stay well, and look well," stated WellQuest President Steve Swift.
