    Obesity Can Be Treated

    It is a Disease

    Today, obesity has become an important health problem not only for developed countries but also for developing countries like ours. The increase in income levels, the adoption of Western lifestyles, the widespread consumption of fast food and snacking on the go, and high-calorie and fatty diets play a significant role in the rising rate of obesity.

    Taking in excessive calories through nutrition and not expending enough calories trigger obesity. People today tend to avoid physical activity, remain inactive for hours in front of computers, televisions, and phones, and consume high-calorie snacks in the meantime. With the increase in transportation vehicles, people walk less, and with the greater integration of technological devices into our lives, we work less. The low prevalence of exercise habits in our society also plays a significant role in this increase.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    What is Obesity and Morbid Obesity?

    We can briefly define obesity as excessive fat accumulation in the body. WHO (World Health Organization) defines obesity as “abnormal, excessive accumulation of fat in the body in a form and rate that causes diseases”.
    Morbid Obesity is defined as severe obesity that seriously threatens life due to the fatal problems it causes. Those with a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 40 are considered morbidly obese.
    The average body fat percentage is 25-30% in women and -20 in men.

    What are the dangers of obesity, what diseases does it cause?

    Obesity causes disorders in all systems of the body. Experts say that obese people live 12-15 years less than their peers. It causes many diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, fat metabolism disorders, sleep apnea, reflux, sexual disorders, bone and joint problems, and respiratory system disorders. Since the appearance of obese patients deteriorates, their social life and mental health also deteriorate, and many problems such as depression arise. Some types of cancer, such as breast and colon cancer, are more common in obese patients.

    How should obesity be treated?

    In the treatment of obesity, there are 1. Diet, 2. Exercise, 3. Drug therapy and 4. Surgical treatment options.
    Diet and exercise play a major role in treatment. First of all, patients should change their lifestyle. Patients should receive good nutrition education and learn the mistakes on this subject. Exercise should definitely be included in life. When all these are insufficient, medications can be tried in certain groups of patients. However, most of these have serious side effects, and today there is still no drug that is very effective and has few side effects.
    Studies have shown that the permanent weight loss rate with non-surgical methods in the treatment of morbid obesity is around 2%. Today, the permanent and effective treatment for morbid obesity is surgery.
    Obesity treatment is completely a team effort. A team consisting of endocrinology, general surgery, psychiatry, nutrition and diet specialists should evaluate the patient and determine the treatment method.
