23. CNN - FDA Panel Divided Over New Diet Drug - March 13, 1998

    Extractions: Web posted at: 11:44 p.m. EST (0444 GMT) GAITHERSBURG, Maryland (CNN) A federal advisory panel could not reach a decision Friday on whether the Food and Drug Administration should approve the use of Xenical, a new anti-obesity drug, because of concerns of a possible link between the drug and breast cancer. The 5-to-5 vote by the FDA advisory panel means that it will be up to the FDA to make a final decision, which is likely to come in May. Xenical works by preventing the body from absorbing about one-third of the fat in the food a person eats. In a one-year trial of the drug, the average patient lost 10 percent of his or her body weight. Linda Ciampa reports. The drug does have uncomfortable side effects. The more fat people eat while taking Xenical, the more likely they are to suffer cramping and diarrhea. Still, doctors think Xenical, while not for the casual dieter, could be a short-term crutch for the truly obese so that they can change bad eating habits and start an exercise program. But the advisory panel had questions about the drug's possible link to breast cancer, not Xenical's side effects.

    Extractions: Nutrition Programme for the promotion of healthy nutrition The EMRO nutrition programme aims to assess national nutrition-related problems and develop appropriate national strategies to address these problems, based on the national plans of action for nutrition. The nutrition programme has five priority areas, targetting the actual nutrition problems facing countries in the EMRO Region: 1. promotion of sound maternal, infant and young child feeding practices, including exclusive breastfeeding for at least 4 and if possible 6 months and appropriate complementary feeding from about 6 months, with continued breastfeeding; 2. prevention and control of micronutrient malnutrition; 3. prevention and control of obesity and diet-related non-communicable diseases; 4. nutrition in emergencies; and 5. monitoring of nutritional status. The countries in the Eastern Mediterranean Region vary widely with regard to size, population and stages in economic and social developments. While significant progress in health, nutrition and quality of life have been achieved in several countries of the region, economic and political conflicts have exacerbated the nutrition situation in several others. According to the Regional database of 1997, 17.3 million (24.9%) children are underweight, 23.9 million (34.3%) are stunted and 5.2 million (7.5%) are wasted in the countries of the Region. It is reasonably believed that severe, acute protein energy malnutrition is a problem in countries with complex emergencies (e.g.: Somalia, Sudan) or those encountering economic and political sanctions (e.g.: Iraq, Afghanistan).

Food and nutrition policies and programmes Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is by far the most lethal form of malnutrition. Children are its most visible victims. Malnutrition, “the silent emergency,” is an accomplice in at least half of the 10.4 million child deaths each year. These young lives are prematurely – and needlessly – lost. Full text Global Database on Child Growth and Malnutrition Publications and documents Called “micronutrients” because they are needed in only miniscule amounts, these substances are the “magic wands” that enable the body to produce enzymes, hormones and other substances essential for proper growth and development. As tiny as the amounts are, the consequences of their absence are severe. Iodine, vitamin A and iron are most important in global public health terms; their lack represents a major threat to the health and development of populations the world over, particularly to preschool children and pregnant women in low-income countries.

Shopping You Are Here: Home Behavior Modification Self-Discovery Through Obesity by Deanna Waggoner I t's Monday morning, and your alarm clock goes off. You feel more tired than usual. As you get up, your head feels tight, your muscles achy, and your throat is sore. You stumble to the bathroom, pull out the thermometer and take your temperature... 101 degrees! You have the flu. So you immediately look at yourself in the mirror and say to yourself: "You idiot, look what you've done to yourself. You have a fever, how stupid could you be? You are only doing this for attention, a way to get out of work. You're pathetic!" Right? Of course not. You take care of yourself. You rest. You may see a doctor. You drink a lot of fluid. You nurture yourself back to health. If you're holistic, you recognize that fever is a natural defense mechanism to fight off the virus or bacteria that is attacking your body. You may even thank your body for doing such a good job. We are conditioned in this society to only think of the tangible, physical aspects of the world around us, and so the main emphasis regarding obesity for many years has been food and diet.

    Extractions: printable version A diet low in energy-dense foods that are high in saturated fats and sugars, and abundant in fruit and vegetables, together with an active lifestyle are among the key measures to combat chronic disease recommended in an independent Expert Report prepared for two UN agencies. The report, commissioned by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), from a team of global experts, aims to identify new recommendations for governments on diet and exercise to tackle the ever increasing number of people who die each year from chronic diseases. The burden of chronic diseases – which include cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes and obesity – is rapidly increasing worldwide. In 2001, chronic diseases contributed approximately 59% of the 56.5 million total reported deaths in the world and 46%of the global burden of disease. The Report includes advice on ways of changing daily nutritional intake and increasing energy expenditure by: reducing energy-rich foods high in saturated fat and sugar;

34. UMHS - Obesity
    Thyroid hormone controls the amount of energy the body uses. What can be done totreat obesity? The first step in treating obesity is evaluation of your diet.  
    http://www.med.umich.edu/1libr/primry/life13.htm
    
    Extractions: What is obesity? Obesity is generally defined as the condition of weighing 20% or more over your ideal weight. You can find the ideal weight for your height and sex from the weight chart below. Who is affected by obesity? Forty million Americans are obese. Forty percent of women between the ages of 40 and 49 are at least 20% over their ideal weight. Obesity increases as people age. Why is it important to control obesity? Obesity is a serious condition because it increases your risk of having major illnesses, such as stroke heart disease diabetes some types of cancer , such as colon, breast, and uterine cancer and osteoarthritis (the stiff, sore joints that you can get as you get older). Obesity makes it harder for your health care provider to give you a good physical exam. Looking at the inside of your body with X-rays and other types of scans, as well as surgery, may also be more difficult. What causes obesity?

35. UMHS - Gross Obesity
    The first step in the treatment of obesity is a weight reduction diet basedon lowcalorie foods. The doctor may refer you to a dietitian.  
    http://www.med.umich.edu/1libr/primry/life14.htm
    
    Extractions: Is there a way to prevent obesity? What is gross obesity? Gross obesity is defined as weighing more than twice your ideal weight or being more than 100 pounds overweight. What causes obesity? The reasons for obesity are not clear. Although obesity occurs when the number of calories consumed is greater than the amount of energy spent, not all obese people overeat. They may have a slower rate of metabolism, the amount of energy needed to maintain the basic body functions when at rest. Obese people also use up fewer calories because it's harder for them to be physically active. Emotional problems, such as depression, anger, and anxiety can occasionally be a cause. Emotional problems can contribute to the obesity or can result from it. Is obesity hereditary? Heredity is a contributing factor. Children who have obese parents are 10 times more likely to become obese adults than children who have parents of normal weight. There is also an environmental factor because unhealthy eating habits may be reinforced in families. A few obese people have an imbalance of hormones.

    Extractions: Obesity research has proven beyond a doubt the potential health risks of being overweight. Heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, strokes: the list of health problems is both frightening and discouraging. Frightening, because so many of these diseases are life-threatening or debilitating. Discouraging, because while obesity research tells us a lot about the risks of being overweight, it tells us very little about how to lose weight. And therein lies part of the impediment to successful obesity treatment: so many weight loss programs presume that everyone's the same. Programs greatly over-simply the issue when they assume that the needs of someone whose weight has genetic origins are the same as someone who suffers from a binge eating disorder. Unfortunately, all too many weight loss programs do just that.
