Lose weight lose weight losing weight!!! since the 20th century, human life and happiness index and fat together, women also launched a protracted campaign to lose weight.

Slimming teas, acupuncture, massage, swing, mini ... There are various "magic weapon". Last week, the International Life Sciences Institute China Office, the Chinese Center for disease control and prevention, the Ministry of health, Center for cardiovascular disease prevention, and other organizations launched the "Chinese obesity and related chronic diseases control session". At the meeting, the experts concentrated about obesity in this topic, but they are not concerned with slim models lead of trendiness, but will do obese itself as a kind of disease, trying to find its causes, and advocating induced by scientific methods of losing weight.

Obesity means that sick.

The relationship between the equation is not established in the past, but then in 1997, the World Health Organization's definition of obesity will be incorporated into the ranks of the disease. But now, researchers realized that obesity is not just singles alone. International Life Sciences Institute China Office co-founder and Professor said that fat people are more prone to a variety of chronic diseases.

For example, hypertension, Hyperlipidemia and obesity associated company, coronary heart disease, stroke and cerebrovascular diseases are also medium prone to obesity.

Causes of obesity in a variety of reasons.

General considers excessive calorie intake and physical inactivity is the main cause of obesity. Obesity researchers set out to lose weight is mostly only for these two aspects. But the study found that many other factors can also cause obesity. Published in June the International Obesity magazine an article that points out the top ten causes of obesity, including sleep is not sufficient cause endocrine disorders, food, too much reliance on air conditioning, a small number of people smoking behaviour, caused by certain drugs, weight increase, female females, etc.

With the continuous development of gene technology, scientists have been gradually reveals the genetic factors and obesity.

Obesity gene expression for "recessive genetic" mode, once the lack of this gene can lead to obesity. The London Institute of technology Professor David · Colin (DavidCarling) proposed "leptin said." He said, "leptin" is a gene control, produced by fat cells of protein hormone. These "leptin" to the lower part of the brain's cerebral Qiu, reduce to convey information its appetite. If you have "leptin" cell some mutations affecting "leptin" production, often leads to obesity.

China is the world's "most thin" one of the countries, obesity rates are rapidly catching up with Western countries.

The researchers stressed the importance of controlling weight, but their call and current weight loss heat also vary: movement, reasonable diet first. In their view, the current market common weight loss instrument, advocacy is to reduce people's movements, such as weight loss instruments placed in the abdomen, depend on weight loss instrument impetus to lose weight.

As this is not the natural movement itself, and cannot reach the science of weight control.
