What if you are genetically predisposed to be overweight?
Is it possible to deal with it? What to do.
Family obesity
You can often see families in which all children, adults, the elderly – are pretty upisano. And even infants in such families are always plump, with perevozkami” on the hands and feet.
If you leave emotions aside, it should be noted that the fullness is not always good. Overweight and obesity can lead to various health problems.
The world health organization declared obesity noncommunicable epidemic, which is slowly but surely conquering the world. And suffers more beautiful half of humanity. Women two times more often than men that have excess body weight. Moreover, in recent years significantly increased the number of children and adolescents. And as you know, if the person suffering from obesity in childhood, it is likely that it will have the same problems and in older age.
There is even such term – “family obesity”. It refers to the following pattern: the parents of the children too often are overweight, or will it have, when will become adults.
Force of habit
Often the reason family of obesity is in the genes, but such people are negligible. Their only about 1% of everyone who is overweight. A curious detail: in the “complete” families of adopted children to become fat.
The studies revealed that obesity is to blame not so much a genetic predisposition as it is a way of life which are in this family. Rather, their bad habits and slight weaknesses. For example, late dinner, Sunday pies, roast goose and wine on holidays.
Many believe that if obesity is transmitted to them by inheritance from fat parents, so it is inevitable. And like it or watch yourself and not issurei diets, all to no avail, genes are genes.
Indeed, the force of heredity is great. But the force of habit – even more. Even if obesity has a genetic nature, it is still not inevitable, but rather predisposition.
If you follow the diet and lifestyle, you can have a lovely figure and look good. If you let it go, you are much faster join the team of fat people on the planet than those who have “family obesity” were noted.
Three rules of harmony
To always be slim and beautiful, you need to adhere to simple tips.
First of all, lead an active lifestyle. This is the first rule, because the movement, as it is banal sounds, is still the basis of health.
Without regular exercise all other actions are ineffective.
So, the second rule – the adherence to diet – only valid together with the first. Under the mode means: you need to eat little and often and not to eat at night.
Day we use energy mainly from carbohydrates. And night energy is taken from fat stores.
After a hearty evening dinner cells of the pancreas, stomach, intestine, and adipose tissue produce a lot of hormones. This is a sign to the brain that the body received the food and there is no need to waste valuable fat reserves. Then reduces the secretion of a particular protein, which is responsible for the feeling of hunger. Violation of scheduled routine leads to malfunctioning of hormones.
If it happens once, then the excess will go. But if you – the constant lover night get-togethers, this surplus will quickly affect your weight.
And finally, the third rule of harmony is well-chosen menu.
The fat and calories
In any case, no need to exhaust yourself starving diets. Significant results such actions can not be achieved. But to get stress quite real.
It is much wiser and safer to write your diet. As there is good and bad, so there is absolutely prohibited products. The basic principle is to find the right balance between proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
Most need to use products with low fat: grains, cereals, rice, pasta. But cereals are high in calories. Therefore it is reasonable to combine with vegetables and fruit.
But if you are going to lose weight, vegetables is your indispensable assistant. They are low in calories and fat but high in fiber, vitamins and minerals.
Dairy products the body needs, but often contain a lot of fat and calories. So choose low-fat products or, in extreme cases, low in fat.
Do not abuse meat and poultry. They are good in limited quantities.
Nuts are rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals. While they have a lot of fat and calories, so you need to introduce them into your diet as possible.
The least we should consume sweets, fats and oils. Instead of sugar you can add honey. And animal fats – butter and margarine – it is better to replace the plant. And remember: “cholesterol-free” does not mean “no fat”.
