The T.E.A.M.S Approach: The Obesity/Diabetes Problem
In response to the devastating effects of Obesity and Diabetes in our communities, Dr. Victor L. Dees, DC and Celebrity Chef/Trainer Thom Zwawa, CFT, CFC, CFNC have a clear and concise understanding of the Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes problem and a solution for the community. The reality is that there is a desperate need of a new and united method by which to educate, prevent and reverse the problems of Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes in the our communities.
Moreover, Thom Zwawa and Dr. Victor L. Dees understand that the time for action is now and they have a program that will get proven and dramatic results, because they are looking at the PERSON and not the condition in order to help solve this most puzzling condition. First, they will MOTIVATE the person to commit to change. Then their program EDUCATES the person as to how and why change is needed. From there, they will SUPPORT the person and teach them to seek and build a support network to accomplish their health, wellness and fitness goals. We will also offer any TREATMENT that the person will need to deal with their current and /or future health and wellness needs via their network of like-minded professionals. They will also use AWARENESS as a key method of bringing attention and focus to these diseases in a way that will not only be positive, but it will also be informative as well. This method of dealing with Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes is called the “T.E.A.M.S APPROACH”. Once funded, they will be able to build the program and start actual community trials as well as create the needed documentary, educational, motivational, promotional and treatment materials needed for the initial phase of this program run. Eventually, they will make the program “live” and start programs in Atlanta, Georgia; with aspirations to place these programs in major cities plagued by these diseases.
Dr. Dees owns a family wellness practice, where he accomplishes his health and wellness mission by educating, treating and motivating his practice partners as well as the citizens of the community. The practice utilizes a “Total Optimal Wellness & Health” philosophy where he combines traditional chiropractic wellness paradigms, functional medicine concepts, modern food sensitivity/intolerance testing, weight loss management, nutritional management, fitness management and motivational support. Dr. Dees is also the Chief Medical/Wellness Officer of World Type 2 Diabetes Foundation and Operation Type 2. Celebrity Chef/Trainer Thom Zwawa is the CEO and Founder of the World Type 2 Diabetes Foundation and Operation Type 2. He also is the author of the self-help Cooking DVD series, Better Food, Better For You (www.betterfoodbetterforyou.com), which is the cornerstone of this fight against Obesity and Diabetes. The FOOD, made Better, less expensive and good for you. Thom is also a “former” Type 2 diabetic that used and formulated some of the principles and doctrines used by Dr. Dees in daily practice to change the lives of patients and practice partners dealing with Obesity and Diabetes.

The reason Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa have joined forces to fight Obesity and Diabetes is because their common understanding and passion for changing lives created the “perfect storm” of treatment. This is a monumental and life changing mission to Defeat Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes. These two common and related conditions are devastating the world as we know it, and the United States of America is GROUND ZERO.
Therefore, as patriots and determined healthcare and wellness professionals, we can no longer sit by and allow this damage to continue unabated. The current methods are failing miserably and everyone is looking to blame others and just sit back, give lip service and act as though they are doing something to combat and defeat this most hideous problem. Here, is the truth; NOTHING THEY ARE DOING IS WORKING. So, they now designate Obesity as a DISEASE, what next, mandatory Gastric Bypass surgery? Sure, that will solve the problem…WRONG! The true test of whether the billions of dollars spent by the government and other foundations is, is the problem getting better, Yes or NO? The answer is NO, the statistics are getting WORSE and more people are SUFFERING & DYING EVERY YEAR.

Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa are uniquely positioned to change and save lives because both have lived life dedicated to the service and betterment of others. As a Celebrity Chef, Thom Zwawa has created an amazing self-help guided DVD series, BETTER FOOD BETTER FOR YOU, which teaches people how to replace Bad Food Choices, with BETTER FOOD CHOICES. One of the key components in this fight against Obesity and Diabetes is the FOOD. If we can Motivate, Educate, Treat, Support and make people Aware of BETTER FOOD CHOICES and BETTER FITNESS and BETTER LIFESTYLE CHOICES and BETTER HEALTH & WELLNESS CHOICES, then and only then can we and will we CHANGE & SAVE LIVES. This is the program that Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa have the utmost faith and confidence will change the face of Obesity and Diabetes in this nation, one community at a time. They will create and imitate the processes that were used to reverse Thom Zwawa’s Type 2 Diabetes and that of patients treated by Dr. Dees. Dr. Dees & Thom Zwawa are dynamic personalities that will change the face of Obesity & Diabetes through their TEAMS APPROACH, which will be delivered in an “EDU-TAINMENT” format. This will reach many more at risk individuals than the current failed programs, formats and delivery systems. As “EDU-TAINERS”, Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa will be utilizing the current popularity of TV physicians (like Dr. Oz and The DOCTORS), but strictly focusing on Obesity & Type 2 Diabetes. This has never been done, but these 2 professionals will be able to make a difference.
Ultimately, we all must ask this question, has Obesity and Diabetes problem increased or decreased? Are people getting healthier or sicker? Are there more people dying from Obesity and Diabetes related conditions today than yesterday? Is more research on these issues making a difference? Are more doctors and healthcare professionals having success treating and reversing these conditions, yes or no? Are more people diagnosed with these conditions today than ever before, yes or no? For all the money being spent on drugs, surgery and the like, is it making these conditions better, yes or no? Are the old, standard, accepted clinical or counseling methods of dealing with Obesity and Diabetes working, yes or no? Sadly, the answer to ALL those questions is a resounding NO!!! Nothing that mainstream health and wellness is doing has a positive effect. But without a doubt, the methods that Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa are cultivating work and show positive results. Just look at the changes that Thom Zwawa has made using their proven methods. No one can dispute these.
Given the chance to change and save lives, the methods that Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa have formulated are a multifactorial and multidisciplinary approach that involves that person and builds a strong foundational support element that motivates, educates, and holds the person accountable in ways that they have never been able to accomplish via the old broken and disjointed methodologies of today. We will see changes and reach populations that have been forgotten and underrepresented in most research, studies and clinical assessments. We are the people and we will bring change to the people. Dedicated, determined and direction action is what will change the lives of those devastated and destroyed by these conditions.
Dr. Dees and Thom Zwawa are ready and willing to use all the experience, talents, resources and influence at their disposal to fight this wave of terror and destruction. But it’s going to take more than these two men to make a change. They will need the support and dedication of each and every able bodied man, women and child to help save lives. But more importantly, they are in the process of securing the initial startup funding to expand this program into a useful and needed community program. They fully intent to compete for grant funds, corporate and private donations and start a “grassroots campaign” to make this program a reality for those in desperate need of a new and united method by which to fight Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes.
Join Dr. Dees and Thom in this mission, it truly is a matter of Life and Death, the choice is yours. They have chosen to help SAVE LIVES, where do you STAND?
