Introduction

Obesity is a major public health problem across the world.

Obesity results from excessive caloric intake, decreased energy expenditure and/or from a combination of the two.

World Health Organization (WHO) definitions for obesity BMI = Weight kg/Height

World Health Organization (WHO) definitions for obesity

BMI = Weight kg/Height m²
Underweight:

<18.5 BMI
Healthy weight: 18.5-24.9 BMI
Overweight (Grade I obesity): 25.0-29.9 BMI
Obese (Grade II): 30.0-39.9 BMI
Morbidly obese (Grade III): 40 or above BMI
Super obese (Grade IV): BMI >50

Environment & Physiology of gaining wt

Older environments: an unreliable food supply

& high need for physical activity to procure food to survive.
No logical reason for humans to develop a strong physiological defense against weight gain.
The weak physiological regulation of energy balance was effective.
Today’s environment provides a constant supply of high energy food with reduced needs for physical activity.

How has the obesity epidemic arisen?

Most of the Affluent population has

been in slight positive energy balance over the past 10-15 years.
Gradual weight gain of up to 1 kg/month, can be produced by a very small degree of positive energy balance of 50 kcal/day.
Decreased physical activity as technology & urbanization promotes sedentary life style

key food groups grew markedly in the United States, not only at fast-food outlets but also in homes and at conventional restaurants.

One study of portion sizes for typical items showed that:
Salty snacks increased from 132 calories to 225 calories.
Soft drinks increased from 144 calories to 193 calories.
French fries increased from 188 calories to 256 calories.
Hamburgers increased from 389 calories to 486 calories.

Tackling Obesity

The WHO’s 1997 interim report argues that it is

not enough to tackle obesity at individual level and that a society-wide public health approach needs to be employed.
Medical profession should work with the food industry to promote a healthier diet for everyone from childhood to adult life.
Management of obesity in Primary Care by a motivated well-informed multi-disciplinary team could achieve and maintain weight loss by promoting sustainable changes in lifestyle.

Add vegetables to as many

things as possible

Cutting Back On Calories But Feeling Full

Traditionally, dieters cut cereals, pasta

and potatoes to control weight
These are sources for complex carbohydrates that help you feel full and maintain a healthy weight
Avoid high-fat toppings on carbohydrates and try plain or low-fat yogurt.
Foods high in protein are often high in fat, so limit protein to 10-15% of total daily calorie intake
