  • 7 Live Lean Nutrition Laws Brad Gouthro
    7 Live Lean Nutrition Laws Brad Gouthro Host, Living Lean With The Ultimate Body Press Certified Trainer & Nutrition Specialist Live Lean Nutrition Law #1 Set A Measurable & Realistic Goal Most people come to me and say… “Brad, I need to lose 10 lbs before summer in 2 months.” That's a great start. You have a set measurable goal… 10 lbs in 8 weeks. But is this realistic (and healthy)? Typically, a healthy fat loss plan will allow you to lose 1-2 pounds of fat per week with exercise and a nutrition plan that puts you in a caloric deficit. A caloric deficit simply means you're burning more calories than you're eating. However, everyone's calorie requirements are different based on your current body composition and activity levels. Lets take a closer look. How many calories should I be eating to lose fat? Going into a severe calorie deficit through dieting alone IS NOT the most effective approach. Not only is this crash diet unhealthy and unsustainable, your body will also go into starvation mode. This means it’ll end up storing fat and burning your muscle for fuel. This loss of muscle slows your metabolism and adds up to a “lighter” but fatter version of your current self. Heard of the term “skinny fat”…well that’s what happens on crash diets. The two healthiest ways to create a calorie deficit is by following a diet that puts you in a modest caloric deficit AND THEN follow that up with an intense exercise program to create an even higher caloric deficit.

  • Using Surgery to Remove Fat Has Long Been a Quest Of
    I have these deposits offat where I really hate them, especially on my thighs. Dieting hasn't helped. -Ginny, 34, secretary sing surgery to remove fat has long been a quest of Ucosmetic surgeons, but the journey toward that dream has been slow until recently. About twenty years ago, physicians in Italy scraped out fat through a relatively small incision using a sharp, circular-ended knife called a curette. Because severe complications often resulted, this technique did not gain widespread acceptance. Seizing on that idea, doctors in France began using a blunt-ended canula, a metal tube with openings along the sides that looks a bit like an oversized straw, to remove fat more gently while preserving the important connections between the skin and muscle. This fat-removal method minimized the chances of damage to surrounding tissue. In a variation on the technique, doctors began infusing into the fat small amounts of saline (salt water), which was identical in composition to the water in our body. This helped break up the fat globules, making them easier to remove. © Copyright 2000, David J. Leffell. MD. All rights reserved. 172 Look Your Best After the technique was introduced to the United States in 1982, lipo­ suction rapidly gained popularity, though the potential for complications, many related mostly to the use of general anesthesia, remained. Three years later, American dermatologist Jeffrey Klein introduced tumescent anesthesia. The tumescent technique involves injecting low-concentration anesthetic solution (lidocaine) into the fat combined with epinephrine (to reduce bleeding and prolong the anesthetic effect) and saline. Large vol­ umes of this solution are injected into the fat before surgery, thus swelling the area to approximately two to three times its normal size.

  • Obesity and Its Relation to Mortality Costs Report
    Obesity and its Relation to Mortality and Morbidity Costs DECEMBER 2010 SPONSORED BY PREPARED BY Committee on Life Insurance Research Donald F.

The Society of Actuaries makes no representation or warranty to the accuracy of the information. © 2010 Society of Actuaries, All Rights Reserved Obesity and its Relation to Mortality and Morbidity Costs Abstract We reviewed almost 500 research articles on obesity and its relation to mortality and morbidity, focusing primarily on papers published from January 1980 to June 2009. There is substantial evidence that obesity is a worldwide epidemic and that it has a significant negative impact on health, mortality and related costs. Overweight and obesity are associated with increased prevalence of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and some cancers. There also is evidence that increased weight is asso- ciated with kidney disease, stroke, osteoarthritis and sleep apnea. Moreover, empirical studies report that obesity significantly increases the risk of death. We used the results to estimate costs due to overweight and obesity in the United States and Canada. We estimate that total annual economic cost of overweight and obesity in the United States and Canada caused by medical costs, excess mortality and disability is approximately $300 billion in 2009.

  • Childhood Obesity During the 1960S Are Available for Certain Age Groups
    NATIONAL CENTER FOR HEALTH STATISTICS SEPTEMBER Health E-Stats 2018 Prevalence of Overweight, Obesity, and Severe Obesity Among Children and Adolescents Aged 2–19 Years: United States, 1963–1965 Through 2015–2016 by Cheryl D. Fryar, M.S.P.H., Margaret D. Carroll, M.S.P.H., and Cynthia L. Ogden, Ph.D., Division of Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys Results from the 2015–2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), using measured heights and weights, indicate that an estimated 18.5% of U.S. children and adolescents aged 2–19 years have obesity, including 5.6% with severe obesity, and another 16.6% are overweight. Body mass index (BMI), expressed as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared (kg/m2), is commonly used to classify obesity among adults and is also recommended for use with children and adolescents. Cutoff criteria are based on the sex-specific BMI-for-age 2000 CDC Growth Charts for the United States (available from: https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/cdc_charts.htm). Based on current recommendations from expert committees, children and adolescents with BMI values at or above the 95th percentile of the growth charts are categorized as having obesity. This differs from previous years in which children and adolescents above this cutoff were categorized as overweight. This change in terminology reflects the category labels used by organizations such as the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Pediatrics. For more information, see “Changes in Terminology for Childhood Overweight and Obesity,” available from: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhsr/nhsr025.pdf.

  • Clinical Policy: Bariatric Surgery Reference Number: NH
    Clinical Policy: Bariatric Surgery Reference Number: NH. CP.MP.37 Coding Implications Effective Date: 06/09 Revision Log Last Review Date: 04/18 See Important Reminder at the end of this policy for important regulatory and legal information. Description There are two categories of bariatric surgery: restrictive procedures and malabsorptive procedures. Gastric restrictive procedures include procedures where a small pouch is created in the stomach to restrict the amount of food that can be eaten, resulting in weight loss. The laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are examples of restrictive procedures. Malabsorptive procedures bypass portions of the stomach and intestines causing incomplete digestion and absorption of food. Duodenal switch is an example of a malabsorptive procedure. Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS), and biliopancreatic diversion with gastric reduction duodenal switch (BPD-GRDS) are examples of restrictive and malabsorptive procedures. LAGB devices are currently not FDA approved for adolescents less than 18 years, but an industry- sponsored prospective study is in progress, and numerous retrospective studies of adolescents have been published with favorable results. Policy/Criteria It is the policy of NH Healthy Families that the bariatric surgery procedures LAGB, LSG, and laparoscopic RYGB for adolescents and adults and laparoscopic BPD-DS/BPD-GRDS for adults are medically necessary when meeting the following criteria under section I through III: I. Participating providers that are MBSAQIP (Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program for the American College of Surgeons) accredited have demonstrated a commitment to excellence in ethics, quality and patient care.
