Question

How effective is fresh food and exercise for obese children?

Answer 1

Obesity exercise: One of the best exercises for obese is water therapy. Either walking or swimming. Water creates resistance and protects joints and also causes increase calorie burn by maintaining body temp.

Answer 2

Many: Do what you love but also consider variety. Exercise comes in many forms from formal gym use, to walking outside. Your best bet is to either go work with a personal trainer who should be able to both create a sustainable exercise routine for you in addition to being a great source of motivation. Best of luck with your endeavors.

Answer 3

Figure out one's BMI: The categories normal, overweight, and obese are defined by the body mass index (bmi), which is a measurement that looks at one's weight in comparison to her height. Tall people are allowed to weigh more than short people are. Bmi calculators are available at the doctor's office and also on the internet. An adult with a BMI of 18.5-24.9 is normal, 25-29.9 is overweight, and 30 or more is obese.

Answer 4

Calculate BMI: Body mass index is the ratio of weight to height squared (in metric units). Overweight is regarded as a bmi of 25 or higher. Obesity is generally regarded as a bmi of 30 or higher. This calculator will allow you to figure out your bmi using pounds and inches: http://www.Nhlbi.Nih.Gov/guidelines/obesity/bmi/bmicalc.Htm.

Answer 5

Eat more, move less: Anything that causes an obese person to eat more calories or to exercise less will worsen his obesity. Examples: eating as a self-treatment for depression symptoms, eating due to hunger shortly after meals (from high Insulin levels combined with dropping blood sugar levels), not exercising due to being very out-of-shape, not exercising due to being embarrassed by one's public appearance, etc...

Answer 6

Too much food.: Eating too much and/or not moving enough are the main factors that lead to weight gain. Obesity worsens over time provided nothing changes as it's toll on the body continues. Focus on losing just 5% of your body weight to improve your health and then reevaluate your goals once you achieve that. Talk small walks to being increasing movement as well. Both help.

Answer 7

Usually not: There are few inherited conditions which cause obesity. Most obesity is not inherited, but obesity does tend to be "familial". One can be genetically destined to have more efficient energy use, smaller energy needs, or "slower metabolism"; and thus may become obese even if eating just moderate amounts of food; but he won't get obese if he wills himself to eat less food. He didn't inherit obesity.

Answer 8

Small portion: Obesity is the product of many factors including genetics. Beginning at the cell level, moving to the familial, community, cultural, social, and national levels. The tremendous uptick in obesity rates is certainly not the product of altered genetics but rather an overall societal trends towards enormous portion sizes, high fat & sugary foods, and decreased physical activity.

Answer 9

Partly: Studies have shown that if your parents are obese, you have a higher risk of obesity as well. However, this risk can be controlled and overcome by what you do with your life: diet/exercise/healthy living...

Answer 10

Obesity inherit: There is a description that the outcome or phenotype, is a combination of genetic factors and environmental factors. In this case, there are over 50 different genes that have been linked to obesity. But there is always an interaction with the environment. In this case, our environment has made access to food, portion size, and calorie content too large. The genes haven't changed, environment has.

Answer 11

No: its inherited by the same bad habits that your parents gave you since your childhood.There are rare genetic conditions too which can cause it but majority of cases are from diet and lifestyle issues. MC4R gene and FTO gene issues are the most common inherited causes of genetic obesity

Answer 12

Hardly ever: Obesity is due to poor diet, a massive amount of sugars added to everything. and lack of exercise. When I graduated high school in 1960, we had not one kid in 300 plus affected with morbid obesity. Our epidemic today is due to unhelthful food (high fructose corn syrup--HFCS--invented by a Japanese scientist in 1960). poor exercise, and a loony food pyramid--way too many carbs, and NOT ENOUGH FAT

Answer 13

No: There are no advantages to obesity. Increased adipose cells (fat cells) produce at least 170 know inflammatory producing hormones. Obesity spurs progression of all inflammatory based disease processes including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, gout, kidney stones, gall stones, psoriasis, fungal infections, dementia, etc.

Answer 14

Obesity paradox: A major mystery in medical research is the observation that despite its many problems, obesity predicts better outcomes in cardiopulmonary illness, this is called the obesity paradox and it is a heavily debated topic.

Answer 15

No.: There are really no health benefits to obesity..

Answer 16

Yes: you die early and there will be lot of suffering in the way !! I am not kidding. On a different note,the only advantage is you are less prone to fractures in your legs because the bones become stronger carrying so much weight.But your VITAMIN D must be above 40 to prevent this fractures.THERE IS NO OTHER BENEFIT TO CARRYING SO MUCH FAT and in fact it is very very detrimental to your health.

Answer 17

Fast weight loss: Depends on how much you want or need to lose. Eating healthy and a lot of exercise might yield a 2lbs per week loss. Losing much more than that probably indicates losing water weight which isn't necessarily healthy. If you do a crash diet to lose weight rapidly, you are at risk of regaining all of it back and more. Healthy eating and exercise is the key. There is no quick & healthy way to lose wt.

Answer 18

Expectations: Try to be realistic. Rapid weight loss is very difficult to achieve and sustain. And while it's not the worst thing to aim for, it can actually be harmful - as in worsen fatty liver if you have it. Aim for in the range of 1-2lbs/week at most. Exercise wise, you you need to ease yourself into a regimen. Start with low to moderate intensity exercise for 20 mins, three to five times per week.
