BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH US
TODAY’S REALITY
Obesity: Over 60% of Americans are now overweight or obese and in the past 30 yrs the obesity rate has doubled. Research has linked obesity to at least 20 chronic diseases. We spend 30- $40 billion / year on diets and weight loss products.
Obese people visit their physicians 40% more than normal weight people.
Obese people are 2.5 times more likely to require drugs prescribed for cardiovascular and circulation disorders
Heart Disease: The AHA estimates direct and indirect costs of heart disease to be more than $304 billion a year in the U.S.
Diabetes: 7.8% of our population has been diagnosed with Diabetes and 57 million people are estimated to be pre-diabetic. In 2007 total costs of diabetes in the United States was $218 billion.
Cancer: According to the American Cancer Society, 1/2 of all men and 1/3 of all women in the U.S. will develop cancer in their lifetime. This translates to more than 1.2 million new cases diagnosed each year.
Of these cases only 5-10% result from inherited defective genes that predispose a person to a very high risk of certain types of cancer. The remaining cases result from lifestyle choices.
The National Cancer Institute estimates that at least 35% of all cancers have a nutritional connection. (excluding exercise and smoking)
Overall, diet is the second leading factor (after smoking) connected to cancer.
WHAT EMPLOYERS ARE SPENDING
Health care costs related to obesity are $118 billion/ year! (nearly 12% of total healthcare expenditures and more than twice that caused by smoking)
In 1997, Medical expenditures for diabetic employees were over $10,000 per person compared to $2,600 per person for non-diabetics
HOW CAN WE HELP?
Anew wellness services provide personalized and integrative, in person and online, nutrition and lifestyle coaching programs to educate, support and inspire your employees in making their health and wellness a priority.
Prevention is the key to resolving most of these health issues and avoiding the high cost of healthcare coverage. Studies have shown that the cost savings for implementing wellness programs and motivating employees to become and stay healthy are quite substantial.
“For every dollar spent on health promotion the return on investment is between $2 to $8 in both direct costs and indirect savings.”
- United States Department of Health and Human Services
“The savings to your company from instituting health programs are very real. The benefits go beyond monetary savings to include reduced absenteeism, higher productivity, fewer injuries and increased morale.”
-The National Federation of Independent Business
“Each $1 spent for diabetes education, saves $2 to $3 in hospitalization costs.”
- National Center for Chronic Disease prevention and health Promotion.
HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?
Our Integrative Approach (vs. counting calories)
Diets, deprivation and counting calories have not proven to work. They are a short-term solution, based on the premise that it’s something you do for a short amount of time. Counting calories or following cookie cuter diets, don’t address the underlying reason of the major diseases that plague our society today.
In our programs and coaching sessions, we integrate many tools and different dietary theories, which are based on traditional, western science, as well as complimentary alternative medicine and modern dietary methods.
We believe that ultimate wellness, is achieved by addressing the underlying causes of our health issues, rather than dampening the symptoms alone. Similarly, weight loss incorporates balancing and restoring our health on many levels, not just counting calories or points. Therefore, most of the emphasis of my services is placed on education and prevention rather than treatment.
"Dina Boyer and her company Anew-Wellness is a rare gem in a minefield of me-too and also-ran wellness and healthy living programs. With a Master’s degree in Biochemical Research from Case Western Reserve University, numerous credentials and certifications, and collaborations with a dozen of the world’s most well-respected health and wellness thought leaders, her knowledge and experience as a holistic coach and teacher are hard to match. She has created wonderful methods and resources to help us achieve the health, vitality and quality of life we need and want. The real treat, however, is Dina’s ability to engage people, holding them rapt by the almost magical way in which she makes healthy living education and lifestyle changes come to life and take hold within us!" ~ Neil Quinn Vice President Director, Health Management Services Oswald Companies |

"I would highly recommend Dina for all corporate programs. We had great feedback from her Eating for Energy” lecture she did for us, which she had great attendance. We look forward to working with Dina in the future!" ~ Gina Palmieri Program Manager Moen Incorporated |
“I knew Dina’s presentation would be very unique in comparison to what I had previously been booking for our chapter’s monthly meetings so I wasn’t sure what the members reactions would be. Well, she blew our group away! She captivates her audience at the very beginning of her presentation, keeps them engaged, and leaves them wanting more. Dina is an energized speaker with valuable information to share and easy-to-understand health facts and tips that you can take home and implement into your life. She also serves as a coach for long-term assistance to meet your health goals. I recommend Dina highly for any type of event. We loved her so much we’re bringing her back for more. You won’t be disappointed.” ~ Cindy Sugerik IAAP-Forest City Chapter |
Our Coaching (vs. reading books articles or counting calories)
Diets, deprivation and counting calories have not proven to work. They are a short-term solution, based on the premise that it’s something you do for a short amount of time. Counting calories or following cookie cuter diets, don’t address the underlying reason of the major diseases that plague our society today.
We can all agree that in the era that we live in, there is no lack of information. When reading books and articles, no one cares or can guide you towards being safe and effective with your efforts. What is missing however is the personalization and hands on approach needed to break down the information in a meaningful way.
Our programs are designed to:
- Provide education, on principles of whole foods nutrition, meal planning, cooking, portion control, stress management, meditation, exercise and so much more.
- Increase awareness of nutrition and lifestyle habits and enable employees to realize their full potential in the process of change and improvement.
- Provide the coaching, creative solutions, support and accountability to encourage the implementation of the nutrition and lifestyle changes, that ultimately have a tremendous impact on their health and ultimately the quality of their life.
