The document discusses obesity in children and adolescents. It states that 1 in 5 children are overweight or obese, and the number of obese children has more than tripled since 1985. About 80% of obese adolescents will become obese adults. Changing societal factors like increased availability of unhealthy foods, larger portions, and decreased physical activity are contributing to rising obesity rates in children. Obesity can lead to health issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and liver problems. Maintaining a healthy diet and being physically active are important to prevent obesity and promote overall wellness.
The recent increase in people suffering from obesity is mostly controlled by the behavior of eating and food that we eat which in turn encourages more energy consumption. Current courses for weight management stresses on the significance of healthy dietary patterns which comprises of a variety of nutrient rich foods, limited portions of energy rich food ingredients & reduce the energy density altogether. There are a number of eating patterns that help in reducing energy consumption in comparison to the expenditure of energy leading to weight loss.

Obesity is defined as being 10% heavier than the recommended weight for one's height and body type. Most obesity occurs between ages 5-6 and during adolescence, and children who become obese at a young age have an 80% chance of remaining obese. While consuming more calories than burned is a basic cause, genetics also play a large role - children with one obese parent have a 50% chance of becoming obese, and 80% if both parents are obese. Less than 1% of obesity is caused by physical or medical issues. Common non-physical causes of adolescent obesity include overeating, lack of exercise, stress, low self-esteem, and depression. Obesity increases risks of heart disease, high blood pressure

- Over 30% of the global population is now overweight or obese.
- In the UAE, over 60% of men and 66% of women are overweight or obese, which is double the world average.
- Obesity-related diseases like diabetes are rising sharply in the UAE, with nearly 1 in 5 people affected and projections that over 1.8 million people could have diabetes within a few years.
Obesity is a medical condition where excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it can negatively impact health. It is defined as having a body mass index over 30 kg/m2. The Greeks were the first to recognize obesity as a medical disorder. There are two main types - type 1 is caused by lifestyle factors like poor diet and lack of exercise, while type 2 is caused by underlying medical conditions and can cause abnormal weight gain even without overeating. Obesity increases the risk of diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and certain cancers. Treatment focuses on diet, exercise and lifestyle changes, but long-term success in weight loss maintenance is often difficult.
Americans are obsessed with both food and dieting. As a nation, we love to eat. We eat out often, when meals are often higher in fat and calories than meals eaten at home; we eat larger portions; and we indulge in dozens of delicious “new” food products found on our grocery store shelves every year.
Obesity is caused by consuming more calories than are expended through physical activity over a long period of time. It can be classified based on body fat distribution as either "apple shaped" with weight centered around the abdomen, or "pear shaped" with weight centered around the hips and thighs. Losing as little as 5% of body weight can lower health risks, and slow weight loss of 0.5 kg per week through balanced diet and regular physical activity is the safest approach to weight management. Key recommendations include choosing nutrient-dense foods, limiting intake of saturated and trans fats, engaging in moderate physical activity daily, and consuming alcohol in moderation if at all.

Management Options for the Obesity Crisis Robert Ruotolo
It is a fact that about 74 percent of the adult U.S. population age
20 years and older is either overweight or obese.1
Overweight and obese are categorical continuums of being above
normal weight based on body mass index (BMI) calculation. This
has serious health implications for all Americans, not to mention
the huge medical cost implications associated with obesity,
estimated at $168.4 billion, or 16.5 percent of national spending

The percentage of obese people has increased significantly in a
little over a decade. In 1994 the rate was 22.9 percent, and it rose
to 30.5 percent in 2000 and 34 percent in 2005.1
People who are obese spend at least $2,800 (2005 dollars) more
annually for medical care than normal weight people.2
Increase in obesity prevalence alone accounts for 12 percent of
the growth in health spending.3
The 7 steps to managing diabetes include: 1) determining your risk factors, 2) setting exercise goals such as 15 minutes per day, 3) paying attention to diet by eating more fruits/veggies and less refined carbs/fats, 4) keeping track of progress with a food diary, 5) not getting discouraged and sticking to small lifestyle changes, 6) understanding that diet plays an important role in diabetes management, and 7) following a consistent daily routine of diet, exercise, medication, and monitoring blood sugar levels.

4. How did we get here?
Poor diet and physical inactivity are the
most important factors contributing to
an epidemic of overweight and obesity
affecting men, women, and children in
all segments of our society.
Even in the absence of overweight,
poor diet and physical inactivity are
associated with major causes of
morbidity and mortality
5. Alarming statistics
According to the CDC, about 35.4
percent of the population are obese
and another 34 percent are in the
obese category – a staggering 70
percent overweight or obese!
6. Many Americans consume
less than optimal intake of
certain nutrients even
though they have adequate
resources for a healthy diet.
7. To curb the obesity epidemic
and improve their health,
many Americans must
decrease the calories they
consume and increase the
calories they expend through
physical activity
8. Understand Nutrition
A healthy eating pattern limits intake of
sodium, solid fats, added sugars, and
refined grains (check glycemic index) and
emphasizes nutrient-dense foods and
beverages—vegetables, fruits, whole grains,
milk and milk products, seafood, lean meats
and poultry, eggs, beans and peas, and nuts
and seeds!
13. Causes of
weight gain
Understand the complex metabolic,
nutritional, sleep, environmental,
genetic factors for weight gain, the
most important of which is insulin
resistance that causes tummy fat and
increased inflammation!
14. Are you insulin resistant?
Up to 71 percent of the population in
the United States gain weight,
especially in the upper part of the
body due to insulin resistance.
16. Change eating habits
Select a healthy eating
pattern that includes
nutrient-dense, low
glycemic load foods and
beverages that meets
nutrient requirements
17. Start moving
Increase physical activity and
reduce time spent in sedentary
behaviors
Understand that exercise alone is
not very useful for weight loss
but in combination with a low
calorie diet, it does help!
19. When to seek help?
If you have belly or upper body
weight, or have trouble losing
weight, you may want to seek help
from trained obesity medicine
physicians that can help you lose
weight, reverse insulin resistance,
correct nutritional, hormonal, and
other factors causing weight gain!
21. What is a reasonable
weight loss goal?
Set a goal for losing 10
percent of your body
weight initially!
22. Proven measures for
weight loss!
1. A low or very low calorie diet (VLCD or LCD)
2. Correction of metabolic and other factors
causing weight gain such as insulin
resistance, food cravings, nutritional
deficiencies etc.
3. Regular physical activity
4. Appetite suppressant medications when
appropriate
5. Weight loss surgery in select patients
26. A W8MD PRESENTATION
EAT WELL, LOSE WEIGHT, LIVE LONGER
If you have metabolic weight
in the tummy or upper part
of the body, or insulin
resistant, prediabetic or

want to consult with a
physician trained in
metabolic or obesity
medicine such as the
W8MD physicians.
