What Is Weight Management ?

A slimming enthusiast must first of all know what body weight management is.  You must first maintain balanced diet and your daily calorie intake must equal your calorie consumption.  A change in body weight is a reflection of long term calorie imbalance in your body.  For example, if your calorie intake exceeds calorie consumption, excess calorie will be stored as fat deposits.  End result - overweight problem or obesity.




 

If you are... Your caloric balance status is...
Maintaining your weight "in balance." You are eating roughly the same number of calories that your body is using. Your weight will remain stable.
Gaining weight "in caloric excess." You are eating more calories than your body is using. You will store these extra calories as fat and you'll gain weight.
Losing weight "in caloric deficit." You are eating fewer calories than you are using. Your body is pulling from its fat storage cells for energy, so your weight is decreasing.


Understanding IDEAL BODY WEIGHT, OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY

Body Mass Index (BMI)

Body Mass Index or BMI in short, is an index designed by WHO and promoted by health experts as a measure for a ideal body weight, taking into account the body weight and height of a person.  It is calculated as follows:




Calculating your ideal weight  :

 Lower limit of the ideal body weight = 18.5 x Height (m) x Height (m)
 Upper limit of the ideal body weight = 24.9 x Height (m) x Height (m)



  Reference for standard BMI


BMI Index
Degree of Obesity
Below 18.5
Underweight
18.5 – 24.9
Ideal Body Weight
25.0 – 29.9
Overweight
Above 30
Obesity

You are already overweight when your BMI is more than 24.9.  You should take care of your health or start a slimming program.



Waist to Hip Ratio  (WHR)

Another easy method to check for overweight is to measure your waist.  A value of above 90cm ( 35.5 inches ) for men and above 80cm ( 31 inches )  for ladies means you are overweight.  The waist to hip ratio is the waist measurement over the hip measurement, an indication of your body fat distribution.  When the WHR exceeds 0.95 for men or 0.85 for ladies, the risk of chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia etc is real.


WHR = Waist Measurement (cm)  /  Hip Measurement (cm)

  
WHR
MALE
FEMALE
Ideal
0.85 – 0.9
0.7 – 0.8
High Risk
>0.95
>0.85

Cleanse and Detoxify Naturally

Cleanse and Detoxify Naturally
Most people are not aware that the intestines play critical roles in the body's immune and detoxification systems.  Understanding these roles can help a person grasp the connection between good diet, good digestion and good health.  According to Dan Lukaczer, N.D., in an article called "Gastrointestinal Health and Disease" published in December 1996 issue of Nutrition Science News, "A substantial body of research has shown that incomplete, imbalanced and dysfunctional digestive processes may be associated with a wide variety of serious diseases ranging from colitis and cancer to asthma and arthritis."

Digestion begins in the mouth.  Chewing food well is undoubtedly the easiest way to improve digestion.  The process continues in the stomach.  It's important to remember that not all food is digested in the same place, or with the same enzymes.  This is why the concept of food combining, an awareness that teaches how to reduce the simultaneous ingestion of foods that are digestively incompatible, can be very helpful to persons who have digestive problems.  Ultimately that will be most of us, as our production of digestive acids declines with age.

After leaving the stomach, partially digested food enters the small intestine, where the majority of digestion and absorption takes place. Bile, manufactured by the liver, the body's primary organ of detoxification, and stored in the gallbladder, is secreted through the bile duct into the small intestine and begins to break down fats into small components.  Hormones in the bloodstream are activated by the entry of food into the small intestine and stimulate release of pancreatic enzymes into the small intestine.  These enzymes break down proteins into amino acids, carbohydrates into sugars and fats into fatty acids.  At this stage in a healthy body, food has become molecules small enough to be properly absorbed into the bloodstream through the intestinal wall.

Because an autoimmune condition can then wreck havoc on an individual's endocrine system, which regulates the function of the entire body, resolving the health problems that can result from yeast infections and leaky gut syndrome can be complex.  A licensed holistic health care practitioner is definitely warranted.  (see Finding allies in health care.)  In the meantime, a personal detoxification program can minimize the load on an individual's liver and thereby help improve immune function.
