Events
This is the event calendar for Summit Health . It includes events and classes held at our clinics, external events and our community events.
Weight loss doesn’t always mean fat loss. With a beneficial weight loss and exercise plan, we want to keep calorie-burning muscle and lose only the fat. Knowing your body fat % and body composition helps you determine if your weight loss and muscle building goals are realistic.
Summit Health offers Advanced Body Composition Analysis using a technique called DXA (Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry). This technique has been available for many years to assess bone density to test for osteoporosis, and has recently been applied to body composition. DXA is now the gold standard for measuring body fat % and body composition.

Summit Health’s ENERGY Department Presents the July Healthy Life Lesson:
You’ve heard it before… Americans just aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are the foundation of a healthy diet rich in vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and water. It’s hard to understand how so many can resist that gorgeous nutritional profile. But the hard facts tell us that less than 30% of us – that’s 7 out of every 10 Americans – are failing to meet the recommended 5 A-Day.
