May 11 is World Obesity Day.
In this fast-paced era, obesity seems to have become a silent epidemic. According to authoritative data, there are as many as 200 million overweight people and more than 90 million obese people in China, many of whom are "central obese" patients who are extremely harmful to health. However, did you know that obesity is not only a numerical problem, but also a complex physiological, psychological, and even social phenomenon?
Today, let's reveal the truth behind obesity and see how to prevent and control it.
The "invisible killer" of obesity
Obesity is not only a physical problem, but also an "invisible killer" that quietly erodes people's health. Many studies have shown that obesity may reduce cognitive levels and make the brain smaller
Increase the incidence of more than a dozen cancers and even severely reduce average life expectancy. However, these harms are often overlooked, and many people remain immersed in an unhealthy lifestyle.
Who are the "accomplices" of obesity?
In addition to genetic and dietary factors, sedentary lifestyles, high pressure, "pseudo-healthy foods", and the ridicule and accusations of those around you can all be "accomplices" of obesity.
White-collar workers who sit in the office for a long time have little time to exercise on computers and documents every day;
Or a person who is overwhelmed by the pressures of family and work and can only seek a moment of comfort through overeating;
Or a person who is ridiculed as a "fat man" by those around him, falling deeper and deeper into low self-esteem and depression.
These seemingly inconsequential factors may actually promote obesity.
The "Three Keys" to Obesity Prevention and Control
In the face of obesity, we need to find the "three keys" of prevention and control. First of all, adjust your eating habits, choose healthy foods, and avoid foods that are high in sugar, fat, and salt;
secondly, strengthen physical exercise, increase metabolic rate, and consume excess fat; Finally, maintain a good attitude, face the pressures of life and work positively, and avoid overeating for comfort.
Reject the "obesity stigma" and scientifically prevent and treat obesity
With the arrival of World Obesity Prevention and Control Day, we should collectively reject the "obesity stigma" and abandon the discrimination and prejudice against obesity. At the same time, we should also learn to scientifically prevent and control obesity and maintain a healthy weight through reasonable diet and exercise. Only in this way can we live a healthy and happy life.
Netizens are hotly discussed
Chinese netizens also have different views on obesity. Some netizens said: "Obesity is indeed a big problem, but we should face it with a scientific attitude instead of blindly discriminating and ridiculing it." Some netizens also believe that "obesity is not only a personal problem, but also the support and help of all aspects of society." "In fact, the prevention and treatment of obesity requires the joint efforts of the whole society.
