The Herbalist

Obesity represents a great effort on the human body, and leads to short life. And obesity may have been taken to many complications, such as: fatigue, heart problems , shortness of breath and exposure to atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, diabetes and back pain, joints and ligaments, in addition to the large number of infectious diseases and the inability to play sports or even walk which is one of the simplest kinds of sports.

The causes of obesity

Of the main causes of obesity, eating too much, where the weight is increased or decreased as a result of an increase or lack of eating what the body needs calories, and can be defined as caloric as the amount of energy generated by a certain amount of food, the more the person obtained a larger amount of calories than needed these excess calories turn into fat, and stored in the form of lipids in the body. But if the person eating the amount of food contains fewer calories than your body needs, the body converts part of the fat into energy.

pregnant women and children require an excessive amount of calories for the growth process. But the increase in eating alone for more than required without doubt increase fat in the body. The amount of food play a major role in weight gain compared to the quality of the food. normal people or obese people may have equal amounts of food, but the resulting difference in weight is due to differences in the relationship between food intake and the amount of energy used in each case.

There are centers in the brain responsible for appetite and hunger and satiety. These centers make you stop food when you find you are enough of it. And these centers make a person eats a sufficient quantity to supply the body with enough of his need. While feeding centers that make a person wants to eat , the satiety centers working to curb or stop feeding centers , which makes a person willing to stop eating . The mechanism of action of feeding and satiety centers is very complex.

There are several reasons help to stagger the work of these centers, such as stress and genetic characteristics. Examples when person become very disappointed this may lead to stop all physical activity. In such case, the amount a person eats is bigger than he used to, which contributes to weight gain, whereas other people are getting the movement to have in case of disappointment, which helps in weight loss.

Some scientists say that giving infants a large amount of eating up what they need increases the number of fat cells they have, and these cells have the ability to store fat easily, making these children susceptible to obesity throughout their lives.

The second reason

The second reason of the causes of obesity is the body idle, when the human body is idle, it contributes to weight gain in all ages, and it shows, especially in children and adolescents. Deals with obese adolescents amount not to exceed what people eat natural, it has to eat less than others, but in fact idle and thus eating Food when they devour outweigh the amount of physical movement and turns it into fat which increases in weight.

The third reason

Genetics, scientists were able to identify a lot of the relationship between genetics and obesity in animals, especially rats. This relationship is based on genes; genes represent a unit cell that determines genetic characteristics. Scientists have discovered that some of the mice have genes causing the mechanism to stop the of satiety centers in the brain, while these genes lead to make the bodies of these mice secrete a large amount of chemicals called hormones.

But in humans, the role of genes is not known just as is the case in animals, but researchers have found that there are signs that some people are willing to obesity not others because of genetics. In a study conducted on students in secondary schools found that only 8% of students belonging to the parents of obese people have the thinnest.

And between families where one parent is obese, found that 70% of children are obese. And between families, which includes father and mother are obese, the percentage of 80% of children are obese. This study also showed that the child within the family fledgling adoption does not appear these cases genetic.

The fourth reason: Disease

  The other reasons were initially occur as a result of the presence of certain diseases, hitting some thyroid glands may make this gland secretes a large amount of hormones into the blood circulation and these hormones in turn affect the of satiety and feeding centers in the brain. In addition to the above, the obesity may occur as a result of the brain injury centers on nutrition and satiety, and it is by injury in accidents or infected by diseases or cancerous tumor.

The effect of chemical drugs and herbal on obesity

The chemical and herbal medicine Affect to lose weight, but there are negative effects for Pharmaceuticals has used chemical property "Dinitrophenol" to lose weight, but there are side effects that accompanied the use of such a rash and fever, blindness and sometimes death, has stopped the use of this property.

In the sixties appeared the use of drug amphetamine (Amphetamines) but it turns out that this type of drug has psychological side effects, one of these influences the appearance of the symptoms of addiction and the doctors warned of the use of this type of medicine to lose weight, and in 1996, licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug (Rednx).
