Obesity Understanding and Treatment Algorithm
The DelveInsight’s Obesity market report gives a thorough understanding of the disease.Obesity is defined as an abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat or adipose tissue in the body that presents a risk to health. The body mass index (BMI) is used to define obesity, which is calculated as weight (kg)/height (m2). A person with a body mass index greater than or equal to 30 is considered obese. It is the second most common cause of preventable death, which has its association with the risk of development of inflammatory components, directly and indirectly, related to cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, respiratory problems, psychological issues, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, cancer, and hyperlipidemia. It imposes a significant public health epidemic that has progressively worsened over the past semi-centennial. An increase in obesity has been observed in children as well as adults of both genders and is prevalent in both developed and developing countries.
Compared to other chronic diseases, obesity results from an interaction between an individual’s genetic predisposition to weight gain and environmental influences. Gene discovery in the field of weight regulation and obesity has identified several major single-gene effects resulting in severe and early-onset obesity, as well as many more minor genes with more variable effects on weight and fat distribution, including age-of-onset and severity.
The most visible sign of obesity can be derived from the magnitude of excess adipose tissue fat, which is measured by taking anthropometric measurements such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and others.
Body mass index, also known as Quetelet index, is defined as a person’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of his height in meters (kg/m2). For adults, a person is considered obese if they have BMI greater than or equal to 30. Whereas for children under 5 years of age, obesity is considered when weight-for-height is greater than three standard deviations above the WHO Child Growth Standards median. For children aged between 5–19 years of age, obesity is considered when weight-for-height is greater than two standard deviations above the WHO Growth Reference median
Diagnosis of obesity involves proper evaluation of the weight status, which considers many factors and uses various tools and diagnostic tests, including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference measurement, physical exams, and lab tests to check for comorbidities.
Obesity Treatment
Losing weight through healthy eating, increasing physical activity, and making other lifestyle changes are all common therapies for obesity. Some people may benefit from weight-management programs in order to lose weight or avoid regaining it. Some obese persons are either unable to drop enough weight to enhance their health or are unable to maintain their weight loss. Other therapies, such as weight-loss drugs, gadgets, or bariatric surgery, may be considered in such circumstances.
Within the first 6 months of treatment, it is recommended to decrease 5–10% of the body weight. It can help reduce the risk of developing obesity-related health problems, and improve health conditions associated with obesity, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels.
So obesity can be managed by reducing calories and adopting healthier eating habits, physical activity, and weight loss medications like orlistat and phentermine.
