Semenov [28]

Answer:

abdominal

Explanation:

People with fat around their abdominal area are at greater risk of developing hypertension when compared to those with similar body mass index but fat concentrations elsewhere on the body, according to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.

For this study, 903 patients enrolled in the Dallas Heart Study were followed for an average of seven years to track development of hypertension. Hypertension was classified as a systolic blood pressure of greater or equal to 140, diastolic blood pressure of greater or equal to 90, or initiation of blood pressure medications. Patients also received imaging of visceral fat, or fat located deep in the abdominal cavity between the organs; subcutaneous fat, or visible fat located all over the body; and lower-body fat.

A client confides that she is taking laxatives to help her lose weight. What is the best course of action
matrenka [14]
Recommend that she slowly stops using laxatives. Taking her straight off them while she’s had longterm usage can cause bowel obstructions and dietary issues. Probably see her again in a couple weeks and come up with a healthy diet/exercise plan and stick to it.
