|
When evaluating body weight, besides actual weight, also consider:
|
BMI
body comp. pattern of fat distribution |
|
eq. for BMI
|
kg/m squared
|
|
Body comp can be measured by (6)
|
Underwater weighing
skinfold measurements bioelectric impedance analysis near infrared reactance Bod Pod and Pea Pod DXA- the standard one |
|
gaining/losing weight depends on
|
energy balance
genetic factos childhood factos behavorial factors social factors |
|
energy balance occurs when
|
E intake=E expenditure
|
|
Basal Metabolic RAte
________ increases it __________ decreases it |
E for resting functions
lean tissue age |
|
thermic effect of food is
|
the energy required to process food
|
|
Genetic factors account for __% of a person's body fat
|
25
|
|
Thrifty Gene Theory
|
gene/s cause people to be energetically thrifty- expend lesss energy- gain weight
|
|
Set Point Theory
|
The body has a set weight and adjusts for changes in E balance to maintain that weight
|
|
Leptin Theory
Leptin is |
a hormone causing reduced food intake, reduced body weight, decreased body fat- controlled by ob gene. When ob gene is mutated, food intake goes up, e goes down, weight is gained
|
|
appetite
hunger satiety |
psychological drive to eat
Physiological drive to eat lack of hunger |
|

obesity BMi
|
30-39.9
|
|
morbidly obese BMI
|
>40
|
|
low carb diet
|
limited friuts and vegs- micronutrients
limited fiber high in sat. and total fat higher satiation -ketosis -constipation -high renal workload |
|
