In fact, it is not easy to make hasty judgments about obesity. Finding the cause of these obesity will be a great step towards treating it.

Investigate the causes of excessive obesity:
• Genetics: Don’t put all the blame on the genes. They account for only 30% of the total. It is true that obese parents are prone to having obese children, but not 100% uncontrollably.
• Consumption of processed foods and foods: Variety of delicious, affordable, and durable foods! There is no question left? These delicious and durable foods have gone out of their natural and organic form and contain high amounts of sugars, calories and harmful fats, which play a huge role in the development of obesity. Are the dairy and organic meats we hear a lot today really contain natural ingredients? Studies of dairy and organic meats have found that they contain 50% more omega-3 fatty acids than their traditional varieties, suggesting that the animals fed omega-3-rich grasses and their fat enters their meat and dairy.
• Eating Addiction: What is the relationship between eating too much and addiction? Have you noticed that even when you’re not feeling hungry, you pass by a restaurant full of fast food and smell different foods, preferring to go in and eat some? Fast foods and other processed foods are make you dependent heavily. With that delicious taste and smell, it’s hard to ignore them. This sense of dependence can create overwhelming obesity over time by creating a transient and strong feeling of joy in the body, and eliminating that dependency requires a great deal of planning and effort.
• Taking medicines: You may not know, but many medicines have obesity effects. Diabetes pills, antidepressants, cortisone and some types of birth control pills have a fattening effect.
• Hypothyroidism, Leptin Hormone: One of the main causes of overweight obesity that you may not even be aware of it. Low working thyroid causes fat accumulation and an increased appetite. Conversely, overworked thyroid is associated with excessive weight loss.
But what is the leptin hormone and what does it have to do with obesity? It is produced by fat cells and It should give the hypothalamus satiety during bellyful, but disruption of this hormone disrupts the hypothalamic balance and is unable to detect and command to stop eating when satiated.
• White Poison Consumption: White Poison or Sugar? If you are aware of the serious side effects of these delicious sweets, you will understand why many researchers have named them white poison. High sugar intake causes changes in the body’s hormones and increased insulin levels in the blood, eventually leading to leptin resistance and obesity.
• You and your stressful body: Did you know that a stressful body adds more than six kilograms in a year, without you being aware? Stress means an increase in cortisol and a decrease in serotonin and the result is a high desire to eat sweets to maintain hormone balance and ultimately stress-induced obesity.

Are you in the heavyweight category too?

There is an easy way to answer this question. Now that you are at home and in your country, first determine the amount of obesity. And with a very simple method called BMI (body mass index):
Height in meters to power 2 / Weight in kg = BMI
According to the following figure, make the necessary comparisons to find out the status of excess fat in your body:
• If the index is between 18.5 and 25, you have a normal weight
• If the index is between 25 and 30, you are overweight
• If the index is between 30 and 40, you’re obese
• If your index is above 40, You have dangerous overweight or obesity. People who have 45kg more than normal weigh, are usually in this category.
Depending on your BMI, you can figure out your situation and take action to lose weight. But what are some ways to treat obesity?
First, skip the quick treatment to lose weight. In addition to your body needing time for this great change, you also need to be mentally strong enough to change and start with the knowledge that you have a long way to go.
But how can start? First of all, you need to know a companion to follow this meandering path that he/she is no one else except your doctor. He will help you step-by-step to get regular and consistent treatment.
There are several ways you can get treatment that you will be informed of them under medical advice. But the following general guidelines for treating obesity are recommended:
• Diet with exercise: Proper weight loss under the supervision of a nutritionist is one of the most effective ways to treat obesity. Many of us try to eliminate important meals, such as breakfast, to start our diet, which is one of the worst ways to eat. Not eating breakfast can lead to a decrease in blood sugar, aggression, a decrease in body fat throughout the day, and overeating in subsequent meals. The most scientific diet is one that contains all the nutrients needed for the body along with exercise.
• Medication treatment: Unfortunately, many overweight people use unscientific methods, such as the hormone medicine that cause the hyperthyroidism, as well as laxatives or diuretic medicine to treat their obesity. Keep in mind that these medicine are not approved by doctors because of side effects such as excessive metabolism, dehydration, non-absorption of required materials, and malnutrition.
• Use slimming equipment such as slimming belts, different creams, slimming earrings and so on, all of which are not medically approved.
• Slimming Surgery: Slimming surgeries such as ballooning, stomach ringing, bypass and sleeve are usually the latest method for doctors to treat excessive obesity. Slimming surgery is one of the ways to treat you when you are on a regular diet and exercise and not getting the ideal weight and in addition to having other indications for surgery, slimming surgery is one of your treatments.

What is Gastric Sleeve?

Gastric Sleeve is an invasive surgery performed by laparoscopy. In this surgery, the patient loses more than 70% of his or her stomach volume and only the narrow and bony part of the stomach remains. In addition, the part of the stomach that is responsible for the secretion of appetite-stimulating hormone (ghrelin) is also in the part of the stomach that exits the body. So in addition to reducing gastric volume, we will see a decrease in appetite in the patient./ Gastric Sleeve in Iran
In fact, weight loss happens faster in Slave than in other surgeries. In the sixth month after surgery, the patient loses about 50 percent of his or her overweight and this percent reaches over 70 percent at the end of the first year after surgery, and usually returns to a stable position after two years. It is important to note, however, that not following the right diet in the long run and restarting overeating can lead to stomach lengthening and excess weight gain.
