FIGHTING FATNESS
MAKES GOOD SENSE
Almost everyone who is
too fat would like to slim
down to average size for
height and build. Many
women would like to be
on the skinny side.
The American Medical
Association’s home health
book, Today’s Health
Guide, points out that most
physicians consider obesity
an important factor in
personal health for three
reasons:
—lt is common.
—lt is associated with
increased sickness and
death rates, notably in re
spect to heart, circulatory,
kidney and metabolic dis
orders as well as surgical
and obstetrical complica
tions.
—lt can be successfully
treated to help control as
sociated medical conditions.

Medical experience
strongly suggests greater
risks for over-weight per
sons in respect to most of
the major disorders beset
ting our population. The
evidence for generally ad
verse effects from obesity
seems too massive and too
consistent to be ignored.
So we need to lose
weight. It should be very
simple: just cut down on
the calories. Unfortunately,
it often isn’t simple. Tak
ing fewer calories than are
needed seems to be within
the theoretical capability
of most of us. Yet results
suggest that this is diffi
cult and often not achiev
ed. Long-term observa
tions indicate poor success
for most dieters.
One factor involved in
overweight is psychological.
Emotional factors are oper
ative in all of us. Psycholo

gical factors may help
cause overweight, or help
to maintain it. Seldom is
psychiatric consultation re
quired. The general prac
titioner, the internist, the
pediatrician usually can
provide suitable guidance
and support as part of the
weight - reduction program,
the AMA book says. The
physician’s aim is to prod
and reinforce our will to
lose weight, to help us be
so determined to trim off
excess pounds that we will
stick to the reducing re
gime.
The physician may pre
scribe drugs at first, as a
crutch to help us get start
ed. These can reduce ap
petite, promote a feeling cl
well-being, add bulk in the
stomach, eliminate excess
fluids. They can, at best,
afford only temporary
help.
