Modern people are quite dependent on the Internet, and using social networking sites has become an important part of their lives. Taking photos and checking in when traveling is absolutely necessary, and it also makes everyone pay more attention to their "photos" that appear on the Internet. However, through observations of Internet usage in recent years, it has been found that there are many fat men and women who are not very confident about their appearance. They have never posted enlarged head photos on Facebook, and even deliberately stand in the last row in group photos to hide their bodies. Some like to make friends or find partners through the Internet because of the anonymity of the Internet, but have ended up in a relationship because they dare not reveal their true appearance. According to statistics, up to 1/3 of adult males in Taiwan have obesity problems, and so do 1/4 of females. The obesity rate is quite alarming. In this regard, Dr. Song Yanren of the Family Medicine Department reminds us that obesity not only affects appearance and reduces self-confidence, but also increases the burden on the cardiovascular system. If you want to consolidate your health, it is even more important to control your weight. The high obesity rate among modern people makes it more difficult to lose weight due to lack of willpower Why are modern people particularly prone to suffering from obesity? Dr. Song Yanren from the Family Medicine Department said that the main causes of obesity are improper diet and lack of exercise. Especially in modern times, working hours are long and life is stressful. There is no spare energy for exercise during vacation time. In addition, the willpower is not strong enough to maintain healthy eating and regular exercise habits, which leads to the inability to lose weight. The mechanisms of action of weight loss drugs vary greatly. Choosing the right type will make your weight loss journey smoother. Developing good eating habits and regular exercise are the only way to lose weight. However, for busy modern people, if they do not have enough self-control, it is often difficult to successfully lose weight through the above methods. Dr. Song Yanren suggested that "seeking appropriate professional help and assisting with legal weight-loss medication prescribed by a doctor can significantly increase the chances of successful weight loss." He also analyzed that currently legal weight loss drugs in China are divided into two types: reducing fat absorption and suppressing appetite. Although both can assist in weight loss, their mechanisms of action are very different. In terms of the effect of reducing fat absorption, for people who do not like to eat meat and fatty foods and instead consume more sugar and carbohydrates, the slimming effect is often only available in the initial stage. However, the accompanying side effects such as diarrhea and oily stools bring a lot of trouble to daily life. Another drug that helps suppress appetite is one that increases serotonin concentrations and affects the satiety center in the hypothalamus of the brain, making the body feel full and reducing the desire to eat, thereby suppressing appetite. It is more likely to reduce the frequency and amount of meals, thereby reducing weight, and is relatively safer. Doctors urge you to seek professional help if you want to lose weight safely and healthily Finally, Dr. Song Yanren reminded that if people repeatedly implement weight loss plans and their weight fluctuates like a yo-yo, or they encounter a wall period and no concrete results are achieved, they should seek help from a professional doctor and receive regular guidance and tracking from a nutritionist to effectively and safely lose weight.
