Medications that make patients put on weight. The longer a person is overweight, the harder it becomes for them to lose weight. Many have wondered whether obesity itself becomes a permanent state, i.e. does obesity promote obesity Treatments for obesity

Obesity treatments have two objectives:

1. To achieve a healthy weight.

2. To maintain that healthy weight.

People who are obese are often discouraged because they think they have to lose a lot of weight before any benefits are experienced. This is not true. Any obese person who loses just five to ten per cent of their body weight will have significant improvement in health - this would mean between 12-25 pounds for an obese person who weighs 250 pounds.

Dietary changes It is important that your diet is varied - you still need to feed yourself, and should continue to enjoy the tastes of different foods. The consumption of sugar, certain refined carbohydrates and some fats should be reduced significa. Ideally, you should work with your doctor, a dietician, and/or a well-known weight-loss program. Trying to lose weight quickly by crash-dieting carries the following risks:

• You may develop health problems

• You will probably experience vitamin deficiencies

• You chances of failure are significantly higher

People who are seriously obese may be prescribed a very low calorie liquid diet. These must be done with a health care professional.

Physical activity

The more you move your body the more calories you burn. To lose a kilogram of fat you need to burn 8,000 calories (1 pound of fat = 3,500 calories). Try to find activities which you can fit into your daily routine

Weight loss surgery (bariatric surgery)

Weight loss surgery (WLS) is also known as Bariatric Surgery. It comes from the Greek work baros, which means weight

• In 2008 about 220,000 bariatric operations were carried out in the USA (American Society for Bariatric Surgery). The American Society for Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery says that Bariatric surgery can improve or resolve more than 30 obesity-related conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, sleep apnea, hypertension and high cholesterol . Basically, bariatric surgery alters your stomach or small intestine so that you are unable to consume much food in one sitting. This reduces the total number of calories you consume each day, thus helping to lose weight

Health risiks associated with obesity

• Bone and cartilage degeneration (Osteoarthritis) Obesity is an important risk factor for osteoarthritis in most joints, especially at the knee joint (the most important site for osteoarthritis). Obesity confers a nine times increased risk in knee joint osteoarthritis in women. Osteoarthritis risk is also linked to obesity for other joints.

• Coronary heart disease Obesity carries a penalty of an associated adverse cardiovascular risk profile. Largely as a consequence of this, it is associated with an excess occurrence of cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality.

• Gallbladder disease Being overweight is a significant risk factor for gallstones. In such cases, the liver over-produces cholesterol, which is then delivered into the bile causing it to become supersaturated.

• High blood pressure (Hypertension) There are multiple reasons why obesity causes hypertension, but it seems that excess adipose (fat) tissue secretes substances that are acted on by the kidneys, resulting in hypertension.

• High total cholesterol, high levels of triglycerides (Dyslipidemia) The primary dyslipidemia related to obesity is characterized by increased triglycerides, decreased HDL levels, and abnormal LDL composition.

• Respiratory problems Obesity can also cause respiratory problems. Breathing is difficult as the lungs are decreased in size and the chest wall becomes very heavy and difficult to lift.

• Several cancers In 2002, approximately 41,000 new cases of cancer in the USA were thought to be due to obesity. In other words, about 3.2% of all new cancers are linked to obesity.

• Sleep apnea Obesity has been found to be linked to sleep apnea. Also, weight reduction has been associated with comparable reductions in the severity of sleep apnea.

• Stroke Rising obesity rates have been linked to more strokes among women aged 35 to 54.

• Type 2 diabetes One of the strongest risk factors for type 2 diabetes is obesity, and this is also one of the most modifiable as it can be partially controlled through diet and exercise.

Drugs are chemical substances used in medicine in the cure, treatment, or prevention of disease in man and animals. In addition drugs alleviate suffering and pain. They affect living protoplasm and do not act as a food. These chemical substances can come from many different sources. Drugs are obtained from various parts of plants, such as roots, leaves and fruit. Examples of such drugs are digitalis (from the foxglove plant), and antibiotics such as penicillin and streptomycin (from plants called molds).

Drugs can also be obtained from animals, for example, hormones and secretions from glands of animals. Drugs can be made from chemical substances, which are synthesized in the laboratory. Anti-cancer drugs, such as methotrexate and prednisone are example of laboratory-synthesized drugs. Some drugs are contained in food substances: these drugs are called vitamins.

A drug can have three different names. The chemical name is the chemical formula for the drug.

The generic name is public property and any drug manufacturer may use it.

The brand name or trade name is the private property of the individual drug manufactures and no competitor may use it.
