Obesity is the most common and adverse nutritional disorder affecting all age group in this industrialized world. Since it is a nutritional disorder, it can be corrected by correcting eating habits. Girls are more conscious now a day toward slightest weight gain. They are ready to do any damn thing to look skinny. Few unknowingly suffer from Bulimia nervosa i.e.  defensive vomiting , fasting, the use of laxatives, enemas, diuretics, and over exercising are also common. This can even cost life in severe cases. So before starting any effort to reduce weight,it is very important to understand the basic working system of human body. This will not only free your minds from notions but also you will reduce weight effortlessly.

      Everything eaten is digested to simpler substances by biochemic processes in body called as metabolism. Digested food gives out energy i.e. calories and turns to proteins, carbohydrates and fats. If metabolism is sluggish,food is digested slowly. So to reduce weight,it is necessary to boost up metabolism. It is quite simple actually.

Eat every few hours (But smaller meals)

Stay active

Consume negative calorie diet

Drink lots of water (Water helps to get rid of toxins from body and also boosts up metabolism )

Exercise for few minutes or twitch your muscles every now and then

Eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables

Breath deeper (Food digests with the help of oxygen. So breath deeper whenever you remember)

Isn’t it simple? Eat, eat and eat. But think and eat. Negative calorie diet helps to reduce almost 2 to 5 pounds in 1 week. Now what does negative calorie diet means? You eat and apple and it gives you 80 calories approximately. But to digest this apple, body spends 100calories. This means instead of consuming calories, we spent calories which were taken from stored fat in the body. There are many such foods which take more calories to digest. Thus metabolism boosts up and fats burn easily.

Fruits that burn fats are:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Vegetables that burn fats are:

Apple                                                                              Carrots

Melons                                                                           Cucumber

Figs                                                                                 Tomato

Papaya                                                                            Radishes

Peaches                                                                          Spinach

Pomegranates                                                                Lettuce

Pears                                                                              Mushrooms

Pineapple                                                                       Onion

Oranges                                                                         Beetroot

Strawberries                                                                  Garlic

Lemons                                                                          Turnips

Cherries                                                                          Cabbage

These foods can be consumed as much as you want. Eat them raw, cook them, make a delicious soup, curry or boil them. Be creative in cooking. Try to make something new each time. Enjoy your weight loss program instead of grinning at it.

           These foods are key to loosing weight. What actually happens when we starve? When we do this sin to our body, our body slows down metabolism in order to conserve energy for our basic life processes like breathing, moving, thinking, etc… Thus we feel dull, irritable and cannot concentrate. Our body is controlled by nature so in order to survive; it slows down all processes and conserves calories. Body doesn’t know when it will get food and so it does its job to survive. If we starve for long,we loose weight for sure but only for short period of time. Sane thing happens when we do not have fix time table to eat. When we eat daily at particular time, our body sets up clock and knows that “yes,I am going to get food nowâ€,so it freely spends its calories by that time. But if we eat someday at 12pm, someday at 2pm and someday at 4pm, body gives up and is unable to adjust and thus slows down. So second tip to reduce weight is eat at FIX TIME.

       There are homeopathic medicines that boost up weight loss. First and foremost being PHYTOLACCA BERRY Mother Tincture, 15drops in lukewarm water, half an hour before meals will boost up metabolism. This remedy also helps post natal weight gain and general obesity.

Second medicine is FUCUS VESICULOSUS Mother Tincture, 15 drops in lukewarm water, half an hour before meals. This remedy is also helpful in thyroid enlargement in obese patients.

Sometimes weight gain is because of some helth problem such as polycystic ovarian disease, hypothyroid state, etc… In such conditions,it is advised to consult a physician and start treatment.

          Remember there is no shortcut to success. So don’t get impatient. Try these tips for 2weeks and see the results for yourself. All the best for mission…

Obesity.

Dr. Sayeed Ahmad D. I. Hom. (London)

WHAT IS OBESITY :

Obesity can be best described as the most common nutritional disorder specially in the affluent group of people. It is a condition in which excessive accumulation of fat takes place in the body due to intake of food in excess of physiological requirements. Therefore, overnutrition is as much malnutrition as undernutrition is. An excess of 50 calories per day can increase about 25 Kgs in a period of ten years.

Obesity has been classified into 3 types as follows, depending upon the excess in weight :

Above Normal Weight :

Mildly obese 10-15%

Moderately obese 10-20%

Very obese 20% and above.

Obesity is generally caused by two factors i. e. :

Exogenous – Overeating or intake of excessive energy.

Endogenous -- Due to inherent metabolic disturbance of the body.

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE OBESE :

Obesity should not be taken lightly. Obesity means you are 20% or more above the recommended weight for your sex, age, height and bone structure. Extra pounds beneath the 20% mark simply mean you are over-weight.

CAUSES OF OBESITY :

Obesity can occur both in male and female at any age. However, it is more common in female.

Some of the following factors may contribute to the development of obesity :

It is common in those who take excess of food with little physical work or exercise.

Excessive eating habits is also one of the factors.

Obesity is rarely seen amongst active persons and it is more common in those with sedentary habits.

ADVERSE EFFECT OF OBESITY :

Obesity reduces the life expectancy.

Obesity produces the following physical disabilities :

Abdominal Hernias.

Varicose Veins.

Flat Feet.

Bronchitis.

Osteoarthritis of Knee, Hips and Lumber Spine.

Due to poor reflexes, liable to fall down on slippery floors.

High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)

It leads to greater wear and tear of the entire vascular system and consequently it doubles the risk of heart attack and stroke. It may also cause damage to kidneys.

It also produces metabolic disorders such as :

Gout.

Cholesterol in Arteries.

Stone in Gall Bladder.

Diabetes Mellitus.

It is needless to add that ‘Excess Weight’ (Obesity) is linked to a higher risk of heart diseases and therefore it increases the overall risk of death particularly to persons with Diabetes or Cardiovascular disease.

REDUCING WEIGHT (OBESITY)

It is estimated that an active person will burn about 12-13 calories a day per pound of body weight. Therefore, a person having weight 140 pounds will need roughly 1700-1800 calories a day to maintain that weight, and less to reduce it. This can be used as a guideline for planning weight loss programme, by reducing calorie intake.

It is already stated that obesity is caused by intake of excess calorie and furthermore the lack of physical work or exercise is also one of the contributory factors. Thus, reducing weight means one has to reduce calorie intake by reducing his high-calorie diet. It may therefore be suggested to an obese adult to stick to his daily diet providing 1300 kcal (calorie) which may help in reducing about 0.5 – 1 Kg a week. The reducing diets should contain adequate amounts of Proteins, Vitamins and Minerals. Once the body weight comes to the standard level according to the height, the weight maintenance diets (adequate in Proteins, Vitamins and Minerals) should be taken to keep weight constant i. e.

between 1700-1800 kcal (calories). Therefore, daily diet should contain balanced amount of cereals, pulses, green leafy vegetables, other vegetables, roots and tubers, fruits, milk, fats and oils, sugar and jaggery, groundnut (roasted) ; meat /fish /eggs (to be excluded by vegetarian).

IMPORTANT TIPS TO REDUCE OBESITY :

You may not eat or drink the following :

Bacon, Fatty Meats, Sausages.

Beer, Liquor, Wines.

Butter, Margarines.

Cakes, Cookies, Crackers, Doughnuts, Pastries, Pies.

Candy, Chocolates, Nuts.

Creams – Sweet and Sour, Cream, Cheese, Non-Dairy Cream.

French Fried Potatoes, Potato Chips.

Pizza, Popcorn, Snack Foods.

Gelatin Desserts, Puddings (Sugar-Sweetened).

Gravies and Sauces.

Honey, Jams, Jellies, Sugar and Syrup.

Ice Cream, Ices, Ice Milk, Sherbets.

Milk Whole.

Muffins, Pan Cakes, Waffles.

Olives.

Soda (Sugar-Sweetened).

Yogurt (Fruit-Flavoured).

Buy a reliable scale to weight yourself and a kitchen scale to weight your food.

Set a long term weight loss aim.

Cut down on salt.

Eat from a small plate.

Do not skip meals – else being hungry you will overeat at the next meal.

Do not eat while you are out.

Weigh yourself quite often.

Do not be tempted by prohibited foods.

Do not eat while reading, watching TV, Video or games, etc.

Keep tempting foods out of sight.

Try to relax.

Control your urge to eat.

Control the amount you eat.

Do not finish everything on your plate.

Eat little at dinner.

Shop only after eating.

Eat in the same place invariably.

Chew your food completely, never gulp it.

When you are angry, drink water.

Do not eat between meals except raw carrots.

Remove skin or visible fat from meat.

Do not use butter or sauce on vegetables.

Drink 7-8 glasses of water a day.

Do not eat fried foods.

Walk after night meal.

Be vegetarian to lose weight.

Use skim milk instead of cow or buffalo milk.

Walk daily in the morning.

Avoid foods high in saturated fat and cholesterol.

As a matter of fact, the Author of this article (Dr. Sayeed Ahmad) was also one of the victims of

obesity. Control over diets, doing daily light exercise and taking of Homœopathic Medicines greatly helped him to win over this problem. A few years ago, his weight was 84 Kgs with an height of 5 feet 6 inches and consequently he was obese and over-weight and presently his weight is about 64 Kgs and only due to his own homœopathic treatment he could reduce about twenty Kgs and he is now fit and fine.

An extract from Risalat-uz-zahabiyya (Treatise of Gold) by Imam Raza Alahis Salam the 8th Successor to Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).

One should not eat eggs and fish at the same time. You may suffer from arthritis, colic, piles and tooth-ache. Likewise, who so drinks grape or date wine mixed with milk, shall be affected with rheumatic pains and white leprosy. Consumption of too many eggs frequently will crease the face with wrinkles, create disease of the milt and give rise to flatulence. A half boiled egg makes the stomach lose its crust, and

enables the development of asthma. If salted dried meat or fish is eaten frequently you will be exposed to skin disease. If kidneys, belly and intestine of a goat and a sheep are eaten regularly they will weaken the functions of the bladder and womb. Having a shower, or a bath, whilst the stomach is full causes colic. Taking a cold shower or bath after eating fish produces paralysis. If citric fruits are eaten after nightfall you will have sore eyes (maybe squinting) in the morning. Eating meat which is half cooked or almost raw creates worms in the stomach. Drinking cold water after eating sweet or hot dish destroys the teeth. The following happens if the flesh of wild bird or beef is eaten: absent mindedness, confusion, carelessness, stupidity and forgetfulness. Before having a bath, swallow five gulps of lukewarm water and pour warm water five times over the head to prevent headaches and

migraines. To get rid of the acne and redness of the skin, smear the body with violet oil before having a bath. To avoid the summer cold, one must eat cucumbers or watermelons and must also avoid too much exposure to the rays of the sun. Eating fresh produce in summer or winter will help to avoid the onslaught of migraines, toothache, stomach ache and the swelling of flanks. Those who wish to maintain a slim and sound body must eat very little at dinnertime. Who so desires not to fall a victim to jaundice should not enter a closed-off house in summer and should not step out of the house immediately after opening the door in winter. To avoid flatulence, garlic should be eaten once a week. To keep the teeth safe from decay eat a small loaf of bread before taking any kind of sweet dish. One who wishes to aid digestion of food should rest a while, lying first on the right side and then on the left. To reduce phlegm, take 4 grams of tamarisk every morning. To get rid of rheumatism rub oil gently on the body and rinse with warm water, boiled in a copper basin. If you do not want to suffer from pain and disorder in the bladder you must not hold going to the washroom. If you want to avoid abdominal problems do not drink water whilst eating – until you have finished – because water saturates the body and slows down the functions. If one does not wish to suffer from kidney stones, difficulty in discharging urine or constipation one must not hold back the flow of seminal discharge. If you are suffering from piles, you should eat ripe dates with butter every night, and rub jasmine oil on the area where it’s growing. To develop the faculties of the body one must eat 37 grams dried grapes (raisins) every morning. To increase the memory one must eat 3 pieces of ginger with honey each day, and make sure one consumes enough mustard. To improve the intellect must eat 3 pieces of varied plums, brewed and soaked in sugar, on a daily basis. To avoid fingernails becoming split and torn, turning pale, frail and fragile, one must not cut nails except on Thursday. To avoid cold, rheumatism or catarrh in winter, take 3 spoonfuls of honey every day. However, if you smell the honey and it induces thirst then it is harmful. Also, upon taste, if it produces heat in the intestines then is harmful. To keep away from cold and flu try and smell a daffodil flower, or consume gall-nut, in the winter.
