Are you stress-induced obesity? Find out the 9 major factors of obesity! Dr. Liu Boen: 4 keys to healthy weight loss

According to statistics from some literature journals, more than 1 billion people in the world suffer from obesity, and almost 43% of adults are overweight. According to the 2020 Statistical Yearbook released by the National Health Administration, the overweight and obesity rate among adults aged 18 and above increased from 45.4% in 2013-2016 to 50.3% in 2017-2020. Obesity can only be eliminated by losing weight, but why do some people always fail to lose weight? How should I lose weight correctly? What are the common types of obesity? Let’s hear what obesity specialist Liu Bowen has to say.

Many chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and even certain cancers such as breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer are positively correlated with obesity. Therefore, the government and the private sector have invested a lot of resources in the hope of reducing the obesity rate. However, judging from the current progress, there seems to be no significant results.

5 key negative factors for weight loss failure

In a recent public academic speech, obesity specialist Liu Bowen analyzed the reasons why the weight loss method is not very effective, including: poor eating behaviors and patterns, increasing obesity-causing environmental factors, high sugar consumption, difficult-to-control cardiac pressure factors, incorrect weight loss models, etc., which are all key negative factors that lead to weight loss failure.

4 keys to healthy weight loss

What is the correct and healthy way to lose weight? Dr. Liu Bowen made several suggestions:

1. Find out the obesity factors:

Before deciding on a weight loss plan, you must first find out the causes of obesity. According to many clinical statistics, common types of obesity include: starchy obesity, stress-related obesity, metabolic obesity, appetite-related obesity, menopausal obesity, hormonal imbalance-related obesity, jet lag-related obesity, circadian rhythm-related obesity, seasonal obesity, etc. Some obesity patients may not only have a single cause, but may even have 6 to 7 causes. Therefore, to achieve effective treatment, we must first find out the factor that causes obesity.

Many potential diseases will appear as symptoms of obesity, such as multiple ovarian cysts, pituitary tumors, gynecomastia, renal edema, and even malignant liver tumors. Before treating obesity, these pathological factors must be eliminated first.

2. Eliminate pathological factors:

A detailed clinical examination should be performed to rule out pathological factors. Many potential diseases will appear as symptoms of obesity, such as multiple ovarian cysts, pituitary tumors, gynecomastia, renal edema, and even malignant liver tumors. Before treating obesity, these pathological factors must be eliminated first.

3. Precise physical inspection:

Accurate and detailed physical examinations are necessary. Many morbidly obese patients, in addition to being obese, also suffer from potential organic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, gastrointestinal disease (such as fatty liver, gastroesophageal reflux, etc.), endocrine disorders, etc. Therefore, before treating obesity, in addition to routine biochemical blood tests, such as abdominal ultrasound, electrocardiogram, vascular blood flow dynamic function, and even some genetic gene analysis, are all necessary items.

4. Precision treatment of obesity:

When it comes to the treatment of obesity, we must also develop a tailor-made precise treatment model to achieve the perfect state of not gaining weight again.

Dr. Liu Boen pointed out that many people rush to try weight loss when they see news reports or rumors about weight loss. Maybe there will be some results at the beginning, but after one or two months, they will either stagnate or gain weight quickly. The reason is that they used the wrong method, or the causes of obesity in different individuals are not the same. What worked for Miss A may not work for him at all. Another reason is that the human body's physiological structure has many "side branches" for absorbing calories. Some drugs may block the absorption of some sugars or calories, but the body will quickly establish other side branch absorption pathways. Therefore, precision treatment of obesity is a major new trend!
