Obesity – a life killer

  How many people, while enjoying a good life, are unknowingly involved in the river of life by obesity in a dangerous whirlpool.  So how many people are paying attention to obesity as a life killer?  Whenever summer comes, many women who love beauty bravely go into the weight loss store —– to “cut meat” for beauty! Then look at the old man dragging his heavy feet to the —- cerebral thrombosis sequelae, and belly full of needle holes in the diabetic insulin application, from their a sigh of relief: alas, too fat! Perceive the mood of retaining health. Look again, people gorging themselves at the wine table; listen again, the happy news from the hospital delivery room: another big fat son —-10 pounds! Is it good?  Obesity (here does not include morbid obesity) is how to come? One word: eating! Look at the definition of obesity: long-term energy intake is too much, more than the body’s energy consumption, the body’s excess energy into fat, and excessive accumulation of nutrient metabolic imbalance caused by the disease. From the definition, you can see that obesity has long been defined as a disease. The world health organization recommends the international unified use of obesity judgment method, the calculation formula is: body mass index (BMI) = weight (kg) / height (m) squared, standard: 18.5 – 24.9 for normal, 25 – 29.9 for overweight, more than 30 for obese, China recently put forward suitable for Chinese residents to judge the standard: normal for 18.5 – 23.9, overweight for more than With the gold standard, can we all take the right place? If you are not in the normal range, please continue to read on.  Eat! How can you eat a fat person? The maintenance of body weight is mainly determined by two factors: energy intake and consumption. If the long-term energy intake is more than the energy consumed, you will be fat, such as long-term energy intake is less than the energy consumed, you will lose weight, take a look at the film characters in the fifties, fat too little, not much to say here. Total food energy and fat intake is too much, is an important factor in causing obesity. As we all know, the three major energy-producing nutrients include: sugar (carbohydrates), fat, protein, and the body’s storage of excess energy in the form of fat, glycogen (including liver glycogen, muscle glycogen) reserves are very little, so too much intake of sugar, will still be converted into fat to save, the intake of fat in addition to consumption, will also be saved, and protein, it can not be converted into Fat, which is why in weight loss, more high-protein diet, both for energy, but not to fat; fat second factor, bad eating habits, mainly eating too fast. Take a look around the fat, which one of the meal is not a gobbler? Too fast when eating, when there is a sense of satiety, has ingested a large amount of food, and chew slowly, through the medical gastric phase, intestinal phase, brain phase stimulation, produce a sense of satiety faster, and produce a sense of satiety, the intake of food is not a lot; fat other factors, life stability, high standard of living, low labor intensity, less exercise, life and work under pressure, and other factors should not be underestimated.  Fat, the body fat accumulation, is achieved through what way? There is only one answer: the increase in the volume of fat cells. Not an increase in the number of fat cells. Just like making money, more money, the money bag bulge, less money, the money bag deflated, so how many successful weight loss after the beauty is “blown” up again! While loudly complaining about the poor weight loss methods, did not think of anything else? Now understand again why the delivery room rumors of the birth of a 10-pound fat son, it is not a good thing, right? The absolute number of fat cells from birth, grow up, the chance of fat will be far higher than normal weight babies, excessive nutrition during pregnancy, delivery of overweight babies, really let the child lost at the starting line! A few years ago we talked a lot about, Chinese soccer to start from the baby, the same reason, weight control, to start from pregnant women.  Here is also time to talk about the harmful effects of obesity. That is to say, why obesity as a life killer!  1, hyperinsulinemia.
