Aamodt talks about Weight Loss
Explanation:
1. Brain is an incredibly efficient regulator of body weight. Hunger and energy are controlled by the brain, mostly behind the scenes, and this unconscious force is stronger than mere willpower. The brain has its own sense of what your body should weigh — no matter what you believe — called the set point, which has a range of about 15 pounds. While lifestyle changes can shift your weight within this range, it’s much harder to move outside of it.
2. Changing the food environment help to change obesity? Agree.The food environment has a great impact on the nutritional health.Food environment interventions have become a popular strategy to address the obesity epidemic. However, there are still significant gaps in our understanding of the most effective strategies to modify the food environment to improve health.
3. Aamodt says lifestyle choices are more important to maintaining health than weight. She cites a study that measured the risk of death over a 14-year period based on four healthy habits:
- eating fruits and vegetables,
- getting exercise,
- not smoking, and
- drinking in moderation.
For someone who is overweight and who practices no healthy habits, the risk of death is high, but adopting just one good habit brings that person back within normal range. For obese people, it takes all four habits to bring them back into a normal range.And regardless of weight, for those who adopted the four healthy habits, weight makes very little difference to health.
4. Aamodt’s answer to diets :
- Dieting typically causes gain weight over time. Five years after a diet, most people have regained the weight — and 40% have gained even more than they lost. It would seem that dieting contributes to obesity rather than preventing it.
- Every diet tested has failed in the long run, and as willpower is a limited resource, any weight-loss strategy that relies on it is doomed to fail when it’s necessary to focus on something else. It also does a lot of collateral damage.
- Aamodt. “If they stopped dieting, most of them would be happier and healthier, and as adults most of them would probably be thinner.
