Dr. Kenneth Orbeck stated, “As a physician working in integrative and functional medicine, I encounter individuals who are seeking optimal health. One of the greatest challenges and concerns of many patients is regarding their weight. Weight abnormalities are complex and require a comprehensive approach to achieve recovery and optimal metabolic health. Although many factors are involved in weight management, caloric intake must be addressed regarding a person's addiction to food or “need to feed.” Psychological issues play a very important role in oversized individuals as well. In the forefront of addiction medicine is the use of naltrexone, a proven treatment regimen that can curtail the severe cravings often encountered by victims of addiction. Although naltrexone has been proven highly effective, current application methods lack the desired consistent serum levels needed to avoid unnecessary side effects. Cutting edge developments have allowed the use of naltrexone to be inserted through subcutaneous application which ensures constant drug delivery and controlled serum levels avoiding the unnecessary side effects. This exciting development has shown great promise in addiction medicine including weight management. I am very enthusiastic about the potential benefits that can now be offered to individuals suffering from weight and addiction issues.” 

Lourdes Felix, CFO, COO and Director, stated, “We are proud to announce launch of our new weight loss program and the addition of Dr. Kenneth Orbeck as Medical Director. We believe Dr. Orbeck will be invaluable to the program and will be instrumental in fulfilling UnCraveRx’s objective to help individuals who have struggled to maintain their weight loss over time, and to help those who would benefit from losing weight and building on their progress. Research has shown, individuals that struggle with excess weight are dealing with multifaceted circumstances of biological, genetic and behavioral factors. Our approach is unique and will be able to address the complexities of losing weight and helping individuals optimize their health and wellness.”
