The document provides an overview of healthy eating and weight management. It discusses moving away from temporary dieting and instead making permanent lifestyle changes through better food choices and exercise. The body mass index (BMI) is introduced as a measure of body fatness, and BMI categories are provided to interpret adult weight status. Factors that can cause weight gain like medical conditions, medications and lifestyle are explored. Strategies for weight loss through medical nutrition therapy and reducing calorie intake while increasing physical activity are recommended.
This document discusses strategies for weight loss through diet, exercise, or a combination. It summarizes research finding that combining diet and exercise results in more effective and long-term weight loss than either approach alone. Specifically, starting a diet and exercise program simultaneously prevents losing muscle mass during weight loss and is more likely to result in sustained lifestyle changes over time compared to sequential approaches. The recommended approach is a reduced-calorie diet along with at least 60 minutes per day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity most days of the week.

This document discusses maintaining a healthy weight to reduce cancer risk. It notes that 30-40% of cancer cases could be prevented through diet and lifestyle factors like maintaining a healthy weight. The document recommends focusing on overall healthy living rather than weight loss alone. It encourages a diet high in plants and whole grains, watching portion sizes, regular physical activity, and practical lifestyle changes rather than restrictive dieting. Maintaining a BMI between 18.5-25 through these strategies can significantly lower cancer and other disease risks.
1) Obesity is a medical condition where excess body fat has accumulated to the point of negatively impacting health or increasing health risks.
2) It is caused by consuming more calories than burned through physical activity and can be influenced by genetic and environmental factors like lack of exercise, diet, medication, and psychiatric illness.
3) Obesity increases the risk of diseases like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and breathing problems during sleep and can reduce life expectancy. Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can help prevent and treat obesity.
Obesity is diagnosed when a person's body mass index (BMI) is 30 or more. It occurs when the calories consumed exceed what the body needs and are stored as fat. Factors that contribute to obesity include inactivity, genetics, medical conditions, and lifestyle habits. Obesity increases the risk of many health problems like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and certain cancers. Treatment focuses on losing weight through dietary changes, increased physical activity, behavior modification, medication, and sometimes weight-loss surgery.
This chapter discusses maintaining a healthy weight and defines overweight and obesity. It notes that overweight is defined as 1-19% above desirable weight based on gender, age and frame size, while obesity is 20% or more above desirable weight. The chapter then discusses rates of overweight and obesity in the US and health risks associated with excess weight like hypertension, heart disease and diabetes. It also covers methods of measuring weight and body composition including BMI, body fat percentage, and tools like electrical impedance, Bod Pod and hydrostatic weighing. The causes of obesity discussed include calorie balance, genetics, hormones, family and social/cultural factors. Weight management strategies covered include diet, exercise, drugs and surgery.

It’s impossible to target belly fat specifically when you diet. But losing weight overall will help shrink your waistline; more importantly, it will help reduce the dangerous layer of visceral fat, a type of fat within the abdominal cavity that you can’t see but that heightens health risks, says Kerry Stewart, Ed.D. , director of Clinical and Research Physiology at Johns Hopkins. Here’s how to whittle down where it matters most.

Nutrition refers to the body's physical need for food, while appetite is the psychological desire for food. Many factors influence food choices, including time constraints, parenting, and habits developed in childhood. Obesity rates have been rising in the United States since 1985, with over 30 states having obesity rates over 25% by 2008. Body composition, body mass index, body fat percentage, and metabolism all impact a person's health and risk for diseases like diabetes and heart disease.
This document discusses body composition and ideal weights. It defines obesity and provides ideal body fat percentages for men and women. It notes issues with solely relying on height and weight charts, and recommends also considering body fat percentage and fitness level. The document discusses different methods for measuring body fat, such as skin fold tests and hydrostatic weighing. It defines Body Mass Index (BMI) and categories of risk. However, BMI may incorrectly classify some, like athletes. The document stresses that weight loss goals should target fat loss rather than just weight loss to preserve lean muscle mass.
There are several methods for determining body composition and measuring obesity levels:
1) Body mass index (BMI) calculates weight relative to height and can indicate overweight or obesity levels.
2) Waist-to-hip ratio measures abdominal fat by comparing waist and hip circumference. Higher ratios mean more abdominal fat and greater health risks.
3) Skinfold thickness uses calipers to measure subcutaneous fat layers at various body sites and estimate body fat percentage.

This document provides information on diet counselling for reducing obesity risks. It defines obesity as excessive body fat accumulation of at least 20% higher than ideal weight. Obesity is a serious health issue that increases risks of diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Dietary treatments for obesity include low-calorie diets, meal replacements, very low-calorie diets, and consideration of macronutrient composition, portion size, energy density and satiety. Behavioral changes like eating at set meal times and preparing more home-cooked meals can also help reduce risks of obesity.
Delivered (Feb 2014) as part of 12th MDRF–UAB International Seminar on Prevention and control of non-communicable diseases organized by Madras Diabetes Research Foundation (MDRF), Chennai, India in association with Florida International University(FIU), University Of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), & University Of Minnesota, Supported by National Institutes of Health (NIH), USA
Obesity is a medical condition defined by excess body fat that may negatively impact health. A person is considered obese when their body mass index (BMI), a ratio of weight to height, exceeds 30 kg/m2. Potential causes of increasing obesity rates include lack of sleep, environmental pollutants, decreased smoking, and genetic factors passed between generations. Consequences of obesity include increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and other health issues as well as psychological impacts like low self-esteem. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes like diet and exercise, but may also include weight loss drugs or surgery for severe cases.
1. Dietary interventions, exercise, and drug therapies can help with weight loss but maintaining long-term weight loss remains a challenge.
2. Studies show modest weight loss of 3-5kg on average from dietary and exercise changes alone but adherence is often low.
3. Combining dietary changes, increased physical activity, and drug therapies like Orlistat can result in greater initial weight loss of 5-10% but significant weight regain occurs over time.
- 66% of American adults are overweight, including more than 32% who are obese. It is estimated that by 2030, the entire American adult population will be overweight or obese.
- Body mass index (BMI) is used to evaluate body weight and composition. A BMI over 25 is considered overweight and over 30 is obese. Factors like gender, age, heredity, and metabolism impact body composition and fat distribution.
- Excess body fat, especially around the waist, increases health risks like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and some cancers. Very low body fat can also cause problems with reproductive, circulatory and immune systems. Genetics, lifestyle, and psychological factors all contribute to weight issues.
Body mass index (BMI) is a measurement calculated from a person's weight and height that provides an indicator of body fatness. BMI categories are underweight, normal, overweight, and obese. While BMI is a generally reliable measure, other lifestyle factors also impact health risks, such as smoking, lack of exercise, and poor nutrition. Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and physical activity can help reduce risks for various health conditions.
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement calculated from a person's weight and height that provides an indicator of body fatness. BMI categories are underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese. People with very low or very high BMIs have the greatest health risks, but BMI alone does not determine a person's overall health status, as other lifestyle factors like smoking, physical activity levels, and diet also impact health risks.

This document provides information about a student's project on obesity that was completed under the supervision of faculty at the State Ghazipur Homoeopathic Medical College & Hospital. It includes a title page with the student's name and other identifying information, a certificate verifying completion of the project, and an outline of the project contents which covers topics like the introduction, types and causes of obesity, methods of assessing obesity like BMI, risks of obesity, and prevention and control.
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.
Obesity is that, you have a high amount of fat in your body, and from that definition you can notice that, obesity is not about more weight, it's about more fat .

Urbanization has been linked to a global increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among adults and children in all regions of the world. By 2030, the combined effect of a wider availability of high calorie food products and sedentary conditions associated with urban living, could contribute to a 75% increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among adults ages 20 years and older worldwide.
In hub cities, such as Accra, Ghana, urban residents have become more vulnerable to unhealthy weight gain due to consumption ofenergy-dense processed foods, late working hours, and greater alcohol consumption.
