Patient / Public: Healthcare Prof:
America's rising rates of obesity in virtually all age groups is partly due to biological factors, researchers from the Cincinnati Diabetes and Obesity Center reported in the journal Cell Metabolism. Approximately one third of all American adults are obese today, and the percentage continues to rise, says the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
Co-author, Randy Seeley, PhD, said:
"While we don't usually think of it this way, body weight is regulated. How much we weigh is influenced by a number of biological systems, and this is part of what makes it so hard for people to lose weight and keep it off.
To understand the obesity epidemic, we must figure out how our environment alters these biological systems to encourage weight gain."
In our society today, there is an over-abundance of calorie-rich, high-fat foods, which encourages weight gain. What we consume can change parts of our brain that regulate how much we weigh.
Dr. Seeley explained: "Leptin is a key hormone that is secreted from fat tissue, or adipose tissue, and its main function is to inhibit appetite. Via a number of molecular mechanisms, eating a high-fat diet reduces the actions of leptin in the brain. This miscommunication can lead to increased food intake and weight gain.
Evolutionary speaking, we are designed to want to eat foods that are high in fat and gain weight because it made it easier to survive times when food was not available," he continues. "However, that is no longer a real concern since food is almost always available, but we still have a biological desire to eat these calorically dense foods. So, how do we intervene and change this drive? "
Obesity not only has adverse health consequence, but financial and social ones too. Seeley believes there are a number of key points in successful therapeutic interventions which need to be applied.
Dr. Seeley said:
"The key issue is to find ways to take these biological systems that usually make it hard to lose weight and make them work for us to so that it is easier for obese individuals to lose weight," he says. "As we understand the molecular interaction between what we eat and these brain circuits that regulate our body weight, we can design interventions that reduce the body weight that our bodies defend.
This will mean that people trying to lose weight would be able to work with their biology, rather than trying to use will power to overcome their biology that pushes them back to their obese state. Such an endeavor will ultimately require a wide range of scientists from different fields to reduce both the human and monetary costs of the obesity epidemic."

It gained for these ladies to lose, but was their weight loss worth it for the diet companies they endorsed?
From the biggest weight loss success stories of the decade to stars who packed the pounds right back on, RadarOnline.com has photos of the best and worst diet spokeswomen of all times in a special photo feature!
PHOTOS: The Best & Worst Diet Spokeswomen Of All Times
Jennifer Hudson is an American Idol when it comes to weight loss! The Academy Award winner, who soared to international stardom as a full-figured soulful singer on the popular television show, shocked the world when she dropped 80 pounds in two years -- with the help of Weight Watchers! Now that’s what we call a great investment!
Skinny her whole life, Tori Spelling was an unlikely choice as the spokeswoman for NutriSystem. In 2007, the star claimed that the diet system helped her shed her baby weight after giving birth to her first son, Liam Aaron McDermott, but two more babies on and Tori has seemed to have no problem dropping dress sizes on her own!
What’s a great way to lose your contract as a diet spokeswoman? Launch a dessert company! Carnie Wilson, who struggled publicly with obesity for decades and even got gastric bypass surgery, learned this the hard way when she landed and lost a campaign with The Fresh Diet.
“Carnie Wilson was let go as spokesperson for The Fresh Diet after losing only 19 lbs on the program -- and then gaining it all back (plus some) after she launched her own cheesecake company,” said Ezzy Duchman, spokesperson for The Fresh Diet. “If you’re baking cheesecake and selling it, then you can’t promote a diet company,” he added.
What other biggest losers -- and sometime gainers -- were the best and worst diet spokeswomen of all times? Find out by clicking here.

17-11-2011 03:33 A lot of people have been commenting my "how to lose weight fast" video saying it's fake and its not really me. Since you can't see my tattoos in every picture, and I'm tan and the end... and since the end is live footage and not pictures like the beginning. Like I mentioned I had just got my computer and just started my channel I didn't think anyone would actually gravitate towards my video thats why I was so short and non specific. I was just playing around with the voice over, and adding pictures and video together. Had I taken those pictures in mind that people would see I would probably have taken full body before and after with my face included. Or I would have started my "slim down Series" then and shown my progress along the way. But by the time my channel was created I had already had my results and thankful that I have pictures to prove it. Thank you so much to the people who give such wonderful inspiring comments and share their experiences with weight loss and those who tell me I motivate them to start getting fit and healthy it really means a lot. and I wish you all nothing but the best. Even those who are still unsure.. theres not much I can do but this video here with more pictures different locations, outfits, hair styles, some with glasses some without. Thank you all for subbing and being apart of my channel. 🙂 vajac
