Obesity reduction through medical treatment

 ” Celebrate Multi-AGB Chewable Cherry 60 tablets

Medical therapy delivered by primary care doctors is successful in severe obesity

Released: Monday, January 25, 2010

BATON ROUGE - Despite a general belief among physicians that extreme obesity is too difficult to treat, except with bariatric surgery, researchers at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center have learned a substantial proportion of individuals with extreme obesity can lose 10-percent or more of their body weight through medical treatment that does not include surgery. Furthermore, even though those individuals are still obese, they have improvements in risk factors and other health markers. 

“This is important, because surgery is not often affordable or reimbursed by insurance,” said leading scientist Dr. Donna Ryan. “In fact, many medical treatments are frequently not reimbursed by insurance if they are for obesity. So this research is needed to show that primary care doctors are capable of helping obese patients lose weight to improve health, even those with extreme obesity.     


Ryan said losing only five-percent of body weight can reap healthy benefits for the extremely obese, and nearly 61-percent of those in her clinical trial achieved that. More than 40-percent lost 10-percent body weight or more. 

Ryan and her team spread out across Louisiana to recruit and train practicing physicians and their office staffs in eight cities in what she called “intensive medical intervention,” in which physicians used a combination of medication, low-calorie diets and behavior changes. All of the techniques were endorsed by national guidelines for obesity management. Training of physicians and their staffs took about a day and a half. 

Funded by the Louisiana Office of Group Benefits, which provides health coverage for state employees, the research team contacted state employees, seeking participants to screen for and enroll in the trial. Nearly 400 participants enrolled in the two-year trial, called LOSS, using the nearest trained physicians. 

About half of the participants received the intensive medical intervention, the other half received what Ryan called “usual care.” Those in the intense intervention group were immediately placed on a low-calorie liquid diet. They gradually moved to a low calorie, highly controlled diet using meal replacements, and received weight loss medication and group behavioral therapy that included lessons in exercise, activity, self-monitoring and recommendations for walking, water exercise and weight training. The group sessions were supervised by office staff. 

“We conducted this trial as close to the reality of a typical clinic setting as we could,” Ryan said, “We didn’t want to learn just if these strategies worked, but if they would work in the daily routine of a doctor’s practice.”

Ryan noted that the continual challenge in weight loss is keeping weight off, and that means sticking with a routine. More than 50-percent of the LOSS participants stuck with it for two years or more, keeping much of the weight off, but Ryan said that does leave room for improving weight loss maintenance. 

The LOSS trial results were published in the current issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.

Weight loss Pills : FDA Warns

FDA warns against “misleading” weight loss pills

By Mike Stones, 11-Oct-2010

Related topics: Industry

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning consumers should not use Slimming Beauty Bitter Orange Slimming Capsules which claim to be '100 percent herbal' but contain the prescription-only stimulant sibutramine.

FDA tests revealed that the capsules contain "excessive amounts of sibutramine," a stimulant which could cause high blood pressure, stroke or heart attack in some consumers. “Sibutramine is not listed among the pill’s ingredients and could harm users, especially those with heart conditions,” according to anFDA warning statement.

Heart palpitations

Even healthy users could experience harmful side effects such as anxiety, nausea, heart palpitations, and increased heart rate or increased blood pressure, it added. In addition sibutramine can interact with other medications to create side effects that are even more hazardous.

A powerful stimulant, sibutramine should not be used without a prescription due to the safety risks associated with it.

FDA said the product’s label is misleading because it “….indicates that it is a natural vitamin and calcium capsule for use in children as young as two years old."

The capsules are sold online by Beautiful Health Inc., formerly known as LL Health and Beauty.

Sample packets are also distributed at community events such as the 40th Annual Mexican Independence Day Parade in Chicago last month.

Slimming Beauty pill packets contain four capsules in a small plastic bag with English and Spanish wording.

Side effects

According to Slimming Beauty’s packaging circulated by the FDA, the company claims: “The capsule has passed the Chinese drug certification food GMP (Good Management Practice) standard certification and is proved to be safe and free of side effects.”

But FDA officials have reported several cases of major side effects caused by using the product.

A label on the package headed “Supplement Facts” lists the contents as being: Bitter orange, mulberry leaf, jobstears seed, evening primrose oil, cassia seed, oriental water plantain rhizome and lotus leaf.

Consumers and doctors are asked to report adverse side effects associated with using Slimming Beauty capsules to the FDA at www.fda.gov.medwatch/report.htm.

World Obesity Day 26 October 2010 & WHO Statistics

Obesity has reached epidemic proportions globally, with more than 1 billion adults overweight - at least 300 million of them clinically obese - and is a major contributor to the global burden of chronic disease and disability. Often coexisting in developing countries with under-nutrition, obesity is a complex condition, with serious social and psychological dimensions, affecting virtually all ages and socioeconomic groups.

Increased consumption of more energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods with high levels of sugar and saturated fats, combined with reduced physical activity, have led to obesity rates that have risen three-fold or more since 1980 in some areas of North America, the United Kingdom, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific Islands, Australasia and China.The obesity epidemic is not restricted to industrialized societies; this increase is often faster in developing countries than in the developed world.

Obesity and overweight pose a major risk for serious diet-related chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and stroke, and certain forms of cancer. The health consequences range from increased risk of premature death, to serious chronic conditions that reduce the overall quality of life. Of especial concern is the increasing incidence of child obesity.
