Dr. Madan Gives His Take on the Alarming Rate Increase In Childhood Obesity and Declares That Healthy Choices and Habits Should be Taught at a Very Young Age.
Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) January 31, 2013
According to the CDC, the percentage of obese children between the age of 6-11increased by 11 percent in 30 years. For adolescents, that rate sat at 18% in 2010. These alarming numbers are creating a flow of school and community programs for healthier dietary choices for children.
The organism of children and young adults is still at a development stage hence their chances of having more complicated health related risks. Bariatric surgeon Dr. Atul Madan reveals that the long-term health effects for obese children could be devastating and can lead to many types of health related issues and eventually cancer. The immediate effects are as destructive and can cause prediabetes and a poor self-esteem.
Society, family, and community can play an important role in the prevention of childhood obesity. The creation of a safe and supportive environment that is centered around practices that lead children to be more active is critical. The earlier children learn about healthy habits, the more chances they will have to reduce their risks of obesity.
Dr. Madan’s patient reviews indicates that parents expect government agencies, the media, and the food and beverage industry to play a more responsible and supportive role.
Lapband surgeon Dr. Atul Madan is a world renown expert in the field of weight loss surgeries. His specialties range from laparoscopic gastric bypasses to laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding surgeries. Dr. Madan has occupied the positions of Chief of Laparoendoscopic and Bariatric Surgery Division as well as Director of the Center of Excellence for Laparoscopic and Minimally Invasive
Surgery at the University of Miami. He is a member of all of the important laparoscopic and bariatric societies including American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons, and Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons.
The Center for Medical Weight Loss reacts to Alarming Obesity Rates Predicted for 2030
Tarrytown, New York (PRWEB) September 25, 2012
In response to a report released last Tuesday citing alarming forecasted obesity rates in the United States, The Center for Medical Weight Loss (CMWL) is increasing its efforts to encourage physicians to prevent the condition from developing in their patients.
Obesity is absolutely preventable, and reversible, says Dr. Michael S. Kaplan, Founder and Chief Medical Officer of CMWL. With the proper training and experience, physicians can and should attack obesity and overweight head on. By its very nature, obesity is a medical condition, and patients have the best prospects for effectively managing the condition when treated by a trained physician. With more physicians practicing obesity medicine, there is clearly a different path America can take.
The report, F as in Fat: How Obesity Threatens Americas Future 2012, which was released by Trust for Americans Health (TFAH) and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) forecasts the number of obese adults, along with related disease rates and health care costs, is on course to increase dramatically over the next 20 years. The report breaks down obesity-related data by State, and projects that on average 50% of Americans will have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher – the clinical definition of obesity with the associated increases in obesity-related diseases and health care costs.
We are extremely concerned about the latest report and other recent reports that indicate tremendous risk for the country if nothing is done to reverse current obesity trends, says Kevin Eberly, CMWLs Chief Executive Officer. But based on the clinical outcomes weve been able to achieve through the CMWL medical weight loss approach, I am hopeful that the future is not as bleak as it has been painted.
In July 2012, The American Journal of Medicine published a study showing that The Center for Medical Weight Loss was able to achieve an 11.1% reduction in overall body weight among obese patients. The F as in Fat 2012 report suggests that if States implemented steps to reduce average BMI by just 5% by the year 2030, the country would see dramatic decreases in health care costs.
In my conversations with clinicians, corporate business leaders, and policymakers, it is clear that obesity is the root cause of pain on multiple levels, says Eberly. If left unchecked, as the recent report states, the number of new cases of Type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, stroke, arthritis, and hypertension is expected to increase ten times by 2020, and then double again by 2030. And the projected increases in health care costs and lost productivity due to obesity are just as astounding, rising up to $ 66 billion and $ 540 billion, respectively. These numbers can no longer be ignored if the country wishes to remain competitive.
Recently Medicare and private insurers have taken steps to incentivize the practice of obesity medicine among US doctors, specifically by offering coverage for obesity counseling for patients with a BMI of 30 or higher. The US Preventive Services Task Force also recently recommended that doctors screen all adult patients for obesity, and provide counseling to those who fall into that category.
Clearly the government and private business are acknowledging the critical role physicians need to play to reverse the projected obesity trends, said Eberly. Theyve taken steps in the right direction, but we clearly have a long way to go. Now we just need more physicians to learn how to effectively care for their obese patients, and CMWL can help them do just that.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Announces Low Cost-Effective Medically-Supervised hCG Weight Loss Programs In An Effort To Fight Obesity
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) July 05, 2012
hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Weight Loss Programs announces a low cost, medically supervised hCG weight loss program in an effort to help fight obesity.
A published analysis released in January in the Journal of Health Economics states that an additional $ 190 billion a year, or 20.6 percent, in medical spending is added to the total U.S. healthcare costs as a result of obesity.
In an effort to permanently change their patients body composition, hCGTreatments / Diet Docs offers one of the most cost-effective medically- supervised hCG weight loss programs in America. Now recognized by doctors as a complex metabolic disease and not only a risk factor, obesity occurs when excess calorie consumption overwhelms the bodys ability to expend calories as energy which will cause long-term health problems over time. There are a number of factors that can contribute to taking in too many calories but the best way to avoid this by first following a well-balanced diet.
Diet Docs medically-supervised program uses daily treatments of the hCG hormone combined with a personalized ketogenic diet. This diet, which consists of high fat, leafy green vegetables, lean protein and minimal simple carbohydrates, is found to be safe and effective due to its scientifically proven methods. In a study published in
2005 in the Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism, researchers examined the difference in weight loss success in ketogenic diets versus low-fat diets. Despite eating more total calories, the ketogenic diet group lost more fat than the low-fat diet. In addition to a personalized diet plan, Diet Docs patients receive unlimited support from their specially- trained weight-loss coach, nutritionists and doctors. They are there to monitor progress and to make sure each patient stays on track with weekly follow-up calls.
With the rising costs of healthcare, hCGTreatments / Diet Doc has made their weight loss program more cost-effective for those in need to getting their health on track. Our weight loss plans aim to fix the problems that are causing bad eating habits and to get our patients on a healthy diet and living an active lifestyle so they can avoid the health problems that are associated with obesity, states Dr. Rao, Medical Director for Diet Doc. Getting to a healthy weight may be the start to good health but making life-long dietary and lifestyle changes are the real solution and Diet Doc aims to help their patients do just that.
New Study on Diet-induced Obesity Expands Omega-3 Health Benefits
Miami, FL (PRWEB) March 12, 2012
A new study on the regulatory effects of lipids, more specifically Omega-3 and Omega-6, in promoting or preventing appetite, recommends sufficient consumption of EPA and DHA polyunsaturated fatty acids of Omega-3, in order to offset the appetite producing effects of excessive Omega-6, the other polyunsaturated fatty acids abundantly found in red meat. Nutri-Med Logic Corp adds that another recent study consisting of 6 daily dosage of Omega-3 for 4 weeks, followed by 10 weeks of weight maintenance, also resulted in weight loss in obese individuals.
The study by The NIH and University of Bergen investigated the role of excessive dietary intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids of Omega-6 and appetite (Endocannabinoid system), more specifically if excessive intake of Omega-6 would produce hyperactivity of this system and thus induce obesity.
Endocannabinoid system is modulated solely by Omega-6, which is implicated in many physiological processes such as appetite and mood.
In The NIH study, animals were divided to two groups. One group having high Omega-6 intake and the other group having low Omega-6 intake for 14 weeks. The study found that only the high Omega-6 intake group developed diet-induced obesity. However, when Omega-3 was added to the diet of this very same group, the metabolic pattern of the high Omega-6 intake group resembled the low Omega-6 intake group.
As the result, the study suggests the adipogenic (fat promoting) effect of Omega-6 can be prevented by consuming sufficient EPA and DHA and that Omega-3 intake normalizes the endocannabinoid tone (its hyperactivity).
Another very recent study, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial with two parallel groups, one having a diet consisting of fish oil (the richest source of Omega-3) also found that the fish oil group enjoyed an improved metabolic profiles and there was a significant reduction in fat mass for the fish oil group.
This study, which was done by School of Biomedical Sciences and Pharmacy, The University of Newcastle, Callagha, Australia, and published in the January issue of British Journal of Nutrition, found that while highest weight loss in the fish oil group was seen at the week 14, but no additional weight loss was realized afterward. (Br J Nutr. 2012 Jan 3:1-9)
In conclusion, Nutri-Med Logic Corp agrees with both these studies, to wit Omega-3 is very beneficial in preventing some aspects of diet-induced obesity as well as body mass reduction in obese individuals but adds that Omega-3 diet is not a weight-loss system or weight-loss program. Nutri-Med Logic Corp adds that, based on the duration of these two important studies, any Omega-3 diet with intent to offset some of the aspects of diet-induced obesity or reducing body mass in obese individuals may have to follow the same time pattern as these two studies: 14 weeks.
