Obesity is not just an aesthetic issue but a serious chronic disease that affects the heart, blood vessels, liver, joints, and hormonal system. It is now proven that obesity requires comprehensive treatment under medical supervision. Modern methods not only help in losing weight but also in maintaining the results, improving health, and enhancing quality of life.
🔹 Causes and Risks of Obesity
Obesity develops due to a variety of factors:
- Genetic predisposition
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Overeating and eating disorders
- Hormonal and endocrine disorders (polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance, hypothyroidism, etc. )
- Chronic stress and sleep deprivation
If obesity is not treated, the risk of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart attacks, strokes, infertility, and cancer increases.
✅ Modern Approaches to Obesity Treatment
A comprehensive treatment program may include:
1. Medication Therapy (weight loss drugs)
🔸 GLP-1 Agonists Group (hormones that regulate appetite and metabolism):
- Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy)
- Liraglutide (Saxenda)
These medications reduce appetite, slow gastric emptying, improve blood sugar control, and help safely lose up to 15% of weight when combined with a diet.
🔸 Orlistat (Xenical)
Blocks fat absorption in the intestines. Effective for moderate obesity, especially when combined with dietary changes.
🔸 Naltrexone + Bupropion (Mysimba / Contrave)
Affects hunger and pleasure centers in the brain. Helps reduce food cravings and combat emotional overeating.
🔸 Metformin
Often used in patients with insulin resistance, prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, or obesity related to hormonal disorders.
2. Nutritional Support and Dietary Modification
- Individualized nutrition programs based on analysis
- Education on mindful eating
- Gradual development of healthy eating habits
3. Physical Activity
- Regular moderate exercise (walking, swimming, physical therapy) stimulates metabolism and accelerates fat burning.
4. Psychological Support
- Working on eating habits, motivation, and stress. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is often used, especially for compulsive overeating.
5. Hardware and Invasive Methods (as indicated)
- Cryolipolysis, cavitation, pressotherapy
- Endoscopic gastric ballooning
- Bariatric surgery (bypass, gastroplasty)
