Overcoming Limitations of Dieting by Focusing on Brain, Mood and Food Intake in Obesogenic Environment
Slide2Main Goal: Optimizing Obesity ManagementScientific advances:
Energy hemostasis….. Set pointsNeural circuits in hypothalamus and hindbrain… leptin discoverySystemic molecular and cellular homeostatic dysfunction rather than limited to fat accumulationComplex metabolic misbalances in key cell types including adipocytes, hepatocytes
and myocytes with a different etiologiesGenetics
Epigenetic biological stress
Chronic unhealthy diet
Changing
environment & lifestyle are the primary engines of the obesity epidemic.
Slide3Energy balance required to maintain fat mass varies among individuals due to differences: metabolism and lipostatic set point
Genetic : 30-40%Environment: 60- 70 %
longitudinal interaction may be important for intervention strategies
Slide4Neural Systems Controlling the Drive to Eat
Metabolic Brain
post-leptin discovery era have mainly focused on the metabolic brain crucial neural circuits
in hypothalamus and hindbrain
Slide5www.physiology.org/journal/physiologyonline (093.117.182.243
Hypothalamic regulator of energy balance
Slide6www.physiology.org/journal/physiologyonline (093.117.182.243
Nutrient sensing by the brain : orchestrating survival and handling abundance
Slide7www.physiology.org/journal/physiologyonline (093.117.182.243
Neural Systems Controlling the Drive to Eat: Mind Versus Metabolism
Slide8www.physiology.org/journal/physiologyonline (093.117.182.243Neural integration of internal and external information in the control of appetite and energy expenditure
Slide9Neural Systems Controlling the Drive to Eat: Mind Versus Metabolism
Metabolic need is translated into strong behavioral actions that successfully compete with other motivated behavior, the role of the “cognitive and emotional brain” cannot be neglected
Slide10Coexistence of obesity and depression ~43%
Our world is becoming more depressed more obese It is unlikely that mono-therapies, only acting on one single step in one pathway, will be sucessful in fighting the obesity war.
Slide11Food choice complexity
Our food systems are making people sicktaxing unhealthful foods and drinks curbing junk food marketing to all groups (not just children), realigning agricultural subsidies with health
Slide12Slide13MOOD, FOOD & Obesity
Slide14Slide15Slide16A Common Example:Women with PCOS are six times more likely to suffer from
eating disordersOne-third of women with PCOS suffer from binge eating disorder.Every woman with PCOS has unique nutritional concerns – some unique to PCOS & some unique to her
Slide17Slide18Slide19Slide20Dieting Make people FatImproper goal setting
Diet plan makes an enemy of foodDon’t look at food in the sense of a source of nourishment and health. BMI is not accurate to characterize obesity at the individual level nor a body fat measuresimple to measure and with almost no cost Provide limited clinical and biological information obesity-related health disorders are lipid accumulation and distribution, rather than body weight
Slide21Diet therapy and nutrition counseling is beyond calorie restriction, beyond pharmacotherapy
Weight loss/weight regain is a vicious cycle that is fueled by environmental, dietary, and treatment-related realities
Slide22Multiple level Assessment
Slide23Eating to regulate better endocrine response has to be personalized based on comprehensive multiple level assessment
Slide24Nutritional coachingpromising strategy and potentially highly effective approach for weight loss in short-term, long-term maintenance and healthy behavior change.
Slide25The Essence of Nutrition coaching
Slide26Nutrition coaching is:Far beyond anthropometric assessment
Far beyond calorie, balance, variety Far beyond diet planning Why??Fous on:non-dietary aspects of a person’s life, in order to improve clients overall, holistic wellbeing
Slide27Nutrition CoachingAim to:empowerment : mobilize internal strengths and external resources ….
SkillConfidence…. to feel confident about cooking and eating healthy, whether at home or on-the-go. Highly motivated
Slide28Personalized Nutrition AssessmentReview all aspects of your lifestyle to get a good picture of what
one has been through on her health status journey and where she is nowDeep one hour long assessment …..reflective listening
Detailed nutrition assessment of eating habits and food
choices Assessment and education around nutrition for
health condition
so
patient really understand what’s happening to her bodyclear up
false information
and
odd expectations
Slide29Nutrition Coaching End the yo-yo dieting cycle• Learn how food affects your insulin
levels and metabolism• Learn which nutritional supplements are best • Decrease clinical risk outcome • Overcome binge eating• Improve your body image• Have more energy• Overcome resistance to exercise
• Develop individualized meal plans• Provide cooking and shopping advice• Learn how to read food labels …and more!
Slide30Follow up nutrition coaching sessions Individualized intervals 2 to 4weeks
Discuss the challenges Struggling with strong cravings Eating for emotional reasons
Difficulty planning
meals
