This book is about how different foods work within your body: how some of them give you the nutrition and energy you need; while others give you energy but provide little or no nutrition and have a powerful tendency to lay down fat. If you eat the nutritional foods and exclude the fat-building foods, even if you eat as much as you did before, you will lose weight. So does this book promote a tasteless, boring diet that you won't want to eat? Not at all. It provides a route map to dietary changes which will enable you to choose your ingredients and lose weight while enjoying meals that will probably be more appetising and healthier than the ones you eat today. But be warned. Much of what you currently believe about food and diets will be challenged by the author. For decades the food industry and some in the medical profession have given advice that has caused rather than cured some of our most pressing health problems and has actually created today's obesity epidemic. So read this book and seize your chance to Escape from Obesity.
Our planet is in the grip of an obesity pandemic. More than a billion people worldwide are overweight and over 600 million are obese. We live in an obesogenic environment in which it is much easier to get fat than to stay fit. How has this come to be? Who is to blame? What can we do? In Fat Planet, Dr David Lewis and Dr Margaret Leitch examine the social and psychological causes of the obesity pandemic in order to answer these questions. They use ground-breaking research to highlight the behaviour of corporations that relentlessly promote foods high in sugar, fat and salt, and show that these ‘junk’ foods have shockingly similar neurological effects to hard drugs. They consider the prevalence of food cues which unconsciously stimulate our desire to consume. And they debunk the myths of fad diets and slimming pills, suggesting practical, easily implemented strategies for sustainable weight loss. The evidence is clear: our problem with obesity must be addressed or we will face catastrophic consequences. It is not too late to change.
More than a billion people worldwide are overweight, and almost 500 million are obese. Poor nutrition education and the relentless promotion of unhealthy food choices have become the norm, leading to a toxic environment in which it is much easier to get fat than to stay fit. In Fat Planet, leading neuropsychologists Dr David Lewis and Dr Margaret Yufera-Leitch explore the social and psychological factors underlying the obesity pandemic. They demonstrate that corporate greed and individual gluttony certainly play a part in creating and sustaining the situation in which poor nutrition is increasingly ubiquitous, but that the real causes of the global obesity epidemic are far more complicated. A wide range of issues fundamental to the development of unhealthy eating habits is covered; from the way in which foods high in sugar, fat and salt engage the same parts of the brain as hard drugs, to the true causes of food cravings and how to predict the environmental cues that trigger unconsciously motivated overeating. In a fascinating and extremely approachable narrative, the authors also offer practical strategies for slimming down and/or maintaining a healthy weight, while safeguarding children against the health risks of obesity.

Last year, according to The Institute of Medicine, Americans spent in excess of $33 billion on weight-loss products and services. However, the economic cost of obesity in the USA was about $117 billion during this same time period. Obviously a dilemma exists. Why? If all we needed to do was take a magic pill, exercise 10 minutes a day, or eliminate carbs from our diet, as so many "Get-Thin-Quick" schemes suggest, then why are so many of us still vastly overweight? Because such easy schemes do not tell the whole story about what we need to do to get fit and stay fit. And because we're all different. We think differently, we eat differently, and we exercise (or don't) differently. So we need diet and exercise plans designed especially for us. Whether we're 10 pounds overweight or 25 pounds overweight. Whether we like to exercise or whether we loathe exercise. Whether we can stick to a diet six days a week or 3 days a week. Whether we can exercise every day or twice a week. Escape Your Weight gives you a choice of eating plans and exercise plans that fit you, your likes and dislikes, your strengths and your weaknesses. With expertly photographed exercise plans that are easy even for beginners, along with minimal, inexpensive equipment (no gym required), Escape Your Weight will explain what YOU need to do and what YOU need to eat to become slim and fit.
Cellular and Biochemical Mechanisms of Obesity by Paramjit S. Tappia,Bram Ramjiawan,Naranjan S. Dhalla Pdf
Global health has been challenged with the dawning of the era of the obesity epidemic, and thus as a consequence, strategies to reduce obesity have become public health priorities. According to the United Nations, obesity has been identified as a concern for achieving Sustainable Development Goals. Obesity is a serious health problem with an increased risk of several common diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Although the fundamental cause of obesity and overweight is an imbalance between calorie intake and calorie expenditure, the underlying biochemical and metabolic processes that cause obesity are not fully understood. Two earlier volumes dedicated to the subject of obesity, published in the series “Advances in Biochemistry in Health and Disease” focused on the pathophysiology of obesity-induced health complications and the biochemistry of cardiovascular dysfunction in obesity. This book brings together contributions from international experts in the field to describe advancements on the mechanisms leading to development of obesity and related complications. There are 21 chapters in two different parts in this book, comprising of Part I: Pathophysiologic Mechanisms of Obesity (11 chapters) and Part II: Therapeutic Mechanisms of Obesity (10 chapters). This book will serve as a resource and be of interest to health professionals, medical students, fellows, residents and graduate students. It will also evoke innovative research and effective approaches for the prevention of obesity. This volume will accentuate that obesity is a major health hazard in its own right and that appropriate public health measures should be implemented to prevent or reduce or even reverse the impact of this global chronic disease.

The Age-Less Way How to Escape America's Over-Eating Epidemic by Sandra Woodruff Rd,Sandra L. Woodruff,Jaime Uribarri MD,Helen Vlassara,Gary E. Striker Pdf
In "The AGE-Less Way" Dr. H. Vlassara puts forth a profound new concept: Behind the biggest and costliest health challenges of today may lie the same food/industrial/cultural changes that have transformed this century in many positive ways. She draws bold connections between innocent-appearing pastime occupations, over-indulging on alluring and addictive substances called AGEs, and over-eating (a root of obesity). She then makes the compelling argument that such a combination could leave our defenses wasted and our body weak. AGEs are toxic substances born during over- heating of food. As they entice us to "eat our way through life", AGEs cause us to lose - not gain - vital strength. This is why we are more vulnerable to diabetes, heart and kidney disease, stroke or dementia, cancer and other diseases. These diseases - with or without obesity - once thought to afflict only older persons, now affect the young, even infants. Dr. Vlassara has done her homework. She conducted extensive federally supported research for over 35 years. Together with her colleagues, she now has launched a completely fresh strategy which she coined The AGE-Less Way. This is for everyone ready to escape these serious threats and to enjoy a longer and healthy life.
The Problem: despite a wealth of nutrition advice, rates of obesity continue to rise. While specific diets vary in approach, the advice is generally underpinned by the calorie principle: weight loss is simply a matter of 'eating less or exercising more'. Yet both science and anecdote frequently reveal that this doesn't work beyond the short term. ESCAPE THE DIET TRAP reveals the myriad of reasons why taking a calorie-based approach to weight loss essentially dooms us to failure. It explains that it's not the dieter that is usually at fault, but the approach. By presenting ways of eating that offer enjoyable, satisfying fat loss, without extensive exercise, calorie-control or hunger, ESCAPE THE DIET TRAP shows how to escape the cycle of restrictive attempts at weight loss and establish a healthy, sustainable relationship with food.
