Fat Nation
Author: Jonathan Engel
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538117754
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
The diet and weight-loss industry is worth $66 billion – billion!! The estimated annual health care costs of obesity-related illness are 190 billion or nearly 21% of annual medical spending in the United States. But how did we get here? Is this a battle we can’t win? What changes need to be made in order to scale back the incidence of obesity in the US, and, indeed, around the world? Here, Jonathan Engel reviews the sources of the problem and offers the science behind our modern propensity toward obesity. He offers a plan for helping address the problem, but admits that it is, indeed, an uphill battle. Nevertheless, given the magnitude of the costs in years of life and vigor lost, it is a battle worth fighting. Fat Nation is a social history of obesity in the United States since the second World War. In confronting this familiar topic from a historical perspective, Jonathan Engel attempts to show that obesity is a symptom of complex changes that have transpired over the past half century to our food, our living habits, our life patterns, our built environments, and our social interactions. He offers readers solid grounding in the known science underlying obesity (genetic set points, complex endocrine feedback loops, neurochemical messengering) but then makes the novel argument that obesity is a result of the interaction of our genes with our environment. That is, our bodies have always been programmed to become obese, but until recently never had the opportunity to do so. Now, with cheap calories ubiquitous (particularly in the form of sucrose), unwalkable physical spaces, deteriorating rituals and norms surrounding eating, and the withering of cooking skills, nearly every American daily confronts the challenge of not putting on weight. Given the outcomes, though, for those who are obese, Engel encourages us to address the problems and offers suggestions to help remedy the problem.

Pages : 185
Book Description
All too often, women are told that feeling overweight, moody, asexual, tapped out, dried up, stressed out, and sleep deprived is just part of aging. Or they’re led to believe that the answer can be found by taking hormone replacement treatments ( HRT) Finally, author and wellness entrepreneur Mitchell R Suss, in his new book “It’s not your fault, its your hormones!” offers encouragement for women seeking non-pharmaceutical ways to cut down on weight, mood swings, hot flashes-while staving off heart disease, breast cancer, osteoporosis and other diseases of aging.

He introduces a hormone free, drug free, all natural alternative program to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) created by women’s hormone and health expert , Dr Siobhan Kealy. Combining natural therapies with rigorous scientific testing and comprehensive lab work, Dr Kealy can identify the common causes of hormonal imbalances and abnormal weight gain. As a functional medicine doctor, she addresses fat loss and fat loss resistance from a completely different approach than traditional (HRT) practitioners. Dr Kealy’s program will free you from sugar cravings, calorie counting, and the roller-coaster diet mentality. It is designed to change your habits so you’ll instinctively be eating in ways that are aligned with your female genetics and metabolic hormones. Women today do not need to accept the hormonal hell of being fat, tired,stressed, and never in the mood for sex-“It’s not your fault, Its your hormones!” Gives you a safe and effective, easy-to-follow program to balance your “Hunger Hormones”, lose fat, gain muscle without the use of hormone pills, drugs or antidepressants. “It’s not your fault, Its your hormones!” Brings to light the secrets that every middle-age women must know to turn on your “Weight loss Hormones”, control your “Hunger Hormones” and crank up your “Feel Good Hormones”! This highly anticipated book reveals why women are experiencing the ravages of menopause, weight gain, night sweats, irritability, and how your body’s own natural hormones create a “seismic shift” during menopause. “Its not your fault, It’s your hormones!” answers questions you probably didn’t know enough to ask: . Why do menopausal women gain weight, even while exercising more and eating less? . Why I am accumulating a bigger waistline? . Why am I feeling so tired, sluggish and empty? . Why am I not getting quality sleep? . And why did my sex life come to a complete stop? And What Should I Do about this, and how should I make it work? There is no reason to suffer or expose yourself to the many side effects of (HRT) “Its Not Your Fault, Its Your Hormones!”... Inspirational, Educational, Motivational!

Weight Gain: When It?s Not Your Fault
Author: Dr. Lance Dean Ashworth
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491716355
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
In Weight Gain: When It's Not Your Fault, Dr. Lance Dean Ashworth reveals that the struggle with weight is, in most cases, caused by a number of surprisingly common medical conditions. He explains how your symptoms, the lab values, the condition, and the cure all come together to help you lose weight. Some of the medical conditions that he sites are an underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism), anemia, post-menopausal hormone deficiencies in women, and psychological issues, among other conditions. Dr. Ashworth explains that physicians focus their attention on the individual diseases that result from being overweight or obese while ignoring the potential cure-weight loss itself. Instead of the "Band-Aid approach" to such diseases as diabetes and high blood pressure, physicians must focus on the cause of these conditions in their overweight patients, which is fatty tissue! He contends that a paradigm shift in the treatment of obesity is long overdue-a shift from the reactionary mentality of the current medical environment to a proactive, cure-driven focus on the conditions associated with obesity. Weight Gain: When It's Not Your Fault provides the knowledge you need to ask your physician the right medically-relevant questions. These questions will guide you and your physician to determine how and why you gained weight in the first place.

What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat
Author: Aubrey Gordon
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 0807041300
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
From the creator of Your Fat Friend and co-host of the Maintenance Phase podcast, an explosive indictment of the systemic and cultural bias facing plus-size people. Anti-fatness is everywhere. In What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat, Aubrey Gordon unearths the cultural attitudes and social systems that have led to people being denied basic needs because they are fat and calls for social justice movements to be inclusive of plus-sized people’s experiences. Unlike the recent wave of memoirs and quasi self-help books that encourage readers to love and accept themselves, Gordon pushes the discussion further towards authentic fat activism, which includes ending legal weight discrimination, giving equal access to health care for large people, increased access to public spaces, and ending anti-fat violence. As she argues, “I did not come to body positivity for self-esteem. I came to it for social justice.” By sharing her experiences as well as those of others—from smaller fat to very fat people—she concludes that to be fat in our society is to be seen as an undeniable failure, unlovable, unforgivable, and morally condemnable. Fatness is an open invitation for others to express disgust, fear, and insidious concern. To be fat is to be denied humanity and empathy. Studies show that fat survivors of sexual assault are less likely to be believed and less likely than their thin counterparts to report various crimes; 27% of very fat women and 13% of very fat men attempt suicide; over 50% of doctors describe their fat patients as “awkward, unattractive, ugly and noncompliant”; and in 48 states, it’s legal—even routine—to deny employment because of an applicant’s size. Advancing fat justice and changing prejudicial structures and attitudes will require work from all people. What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat is a crucial tool to create a tectonic shift in the way we see, talk about, and treat our bodies, fat and thin alike.
