5. Journal of Obesity in Malaysia by
University Kebangsaan Malaysia states
that:
5.8% of 29,179,952-obese
Number of people obese are
1,692,437
Higher rate-Malays and Indians
9. Adult
Obesity
Excess
body fat
Adipose tissue
is the form of
tissue that fat
takes in the
body.
Located just
beneath the skin
or between other
organs such as
the muscles and
heart.
Excess
carbohydrates,
proteins and
dietary fats can
be converted
into fatty acids
and stored as
adipose tissue in
the body.
Too much
adipose tissue
on your body,
it contributes
to serious
health
complications.
10. Expansion of the adipose tissue during weight gain leads tissue
undergoes a continuous remodeling process that normally
maintains tissue health, but may spin out of control and lead to
adipocyte death in association with the recruitment and
activation of macrophages, and systemic insulin resistance.
11. Adipose tissue located beneath the skin
(subcutaneous fat), around internal organs (visceral
fat), in bone marrow (yellow bone marrow) and in
breast tissue.
Adipose depots in different parts of the body have
different biochemical profiles.
Under normal conditions, it provides feedback for
hunger and diet to the brain.
Diseased fat tissue surrounding various organs can
cause illness.
12.
13. Aromatase which is involved in sex hormone metabolism.
TNF Alpha, IL-6 and leptin which are collectively termed
„cytokines‟ and are involved in sending messages between cells.
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 which is involved in the clotting
of blood.
Angiotensin which is involved in blood pressure control.
Adiponectin which improves the body‟s sensitivity to insulin and
so helps to protect against developing type 2 diabetes.
Lipoprotein lipase and apolipoprotein E which are involved in
storage and metabolism of fat to release energy.
16. Body mass index
BMI : BW / H2
Where :-
BW = Body Weight (kilograms)
H = Height (meters)
Measure waist circumference
Apple shape ( risk of DM, CVD,
HTN )
Waist larger than 40 inch men
Waist larger than 35 inch women
19. Highly ineffective rate 95 % long term failure
Often result in increase weight than before diet
Slow weight loss – stable
Rapid weight loss – gain weight
Rapid weight loss – increase risk of gallstones
Low calorie step 1 diet
Women Men
1000 – 1200 kcal/day 1200-1600 kcal/day
20. Male Age 20-49 2900 calories/day
50 + 2500 calories/day
Female Age 20-49 2300 calories/day
50 + 1900 calories/day
Guideline Daily Amount Values
Typical values Women Men
Children (5-10
years)
Calories 2,000 kcal 2,500 kcal 1,800 kcal
Protein 45 g 55 g 24 g
Carbohydrate 230 g 300g 220 g
Sugars 90 g 120 g 85 g
Fat 70 g 95 g 70 g
Saturates 20 g 30 g 20 g
Fibre 24 g 24 g 15 g
Salt 6 g 6 g 4 g
21. Integral part of weight loss
Increase activity never loss weight
Sustained activity does prevent weight regain
Reduces risk of getting HD & DM
Recommended activities
22. A) Sibutramine(Serotonin Nor-epinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor) :
initial dose 10mg/day, max 20mg/day. Reduces food intake,
increase HR and BP.
B) Orlistat:
Lipase inhibitor : 120mg PO TID. Alters metabolism, dec
absorption of dietary fat.
23. Keep a journal of diet/diary
Set spesific goals
Keep track of improvement
27. P. Thamilselvi suffered obesity for years
She had several complications due to
obesity for instance;
She had difficulties of breathing while
doing heaving activities
Stress and depression
28. Thamilselvi consulted her physical dietician
She started a strict diet :
Oats
Green tea
Green apple
Cut down rice intake, oily foods and food
contain high fat
30. “Sebab mulut badan binasa” – “Body perish
because of the mouth”
obesity is best tackled at home through improved
self involvement, increased physical exercise,
better diet and restraint from eating.
