The Scope of Obesity

Page 6: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Obesity Rates: United States

Where is obesity most common in the US?

Page 7: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Obesity Rates: United States

Obesity is especially common in the South. It has 10 out of the 11 states with the highest obesity rates, including Mississippi along with Alabama and Tennessee, which tied for second place.

Page 8: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Obesity Rates: United States

Michigan is the only state in the top 11 that is not in the South.

Page 9: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

The prevalence of overweight and obesity changed little between the early 1960s and 1980. Findings from the 1988-1994 and 1999-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, showed substantial increases in overweight among adults.

Page 10: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

The upward trend in weight since 1980 reflects primarily an increase in the percentage of adults 20-74 years of age who are obese. In 2003-2004, 67% of adults in that age group were overweight (includes obese); 34% of adults 20-74 years of age were obese (age-adjusted).

Page 11: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Since 1960-1962, the percentage of adults who were overweight but not obese has remained steady at 32%-34% (age-adjusted). Criteria for overweight: BMI value of 27.8 or greater for men and 27.3 or greater for women. Criteria for obese is BMI greater than 30.

Overnutrition, Type 2 Diabetes and CVD

What are the consequences of too much weight? Overnutrition leads to a number of metabolic problems that lead to diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.

These charts illustrate the parallel trend between growth in Vehicle Miles of Travel and the growth in the percent of overweight Americans. The majority of health problems associated with behavioral change caused by the built environment are, unfortunately, more extreme; they include obesity, early onset diabetes, heart failure, respiratory failure, and some forms of cancer.

Other factors in our environment have contributed to this rise in overweight/obesity. The light blue line is the Adult Obesity prevalence which has been rising, but steeply increased at the end of the 1970s.

• Genes• Environmental setting• Experience

Short term regulation of feeding

Food intake is a complex process. The amount and type of food ingested is determined by:

Page 21: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Short term regulation of feeding

Short term regulation of feeding is governed by:

• Taste perception• Meal size, caloric density• Environmental setting• Signals emanating from

GI system and energy stores are received and integrated by diverse neuronal circuits in the hypothalamus and brainstem.

The volume of food consumed and its energy density affect intake through differential stimulation of gastric and post-gastric compartments. The stomach is sensitive to cues related to volume and that manipulation of gastric distension affects food intake.

The lower in caloric density, the greater the volume and the fewer the number of calories. Fresh corn has far fewer calories than a similar serving size of tortillas (made from corn) and Tostito’s® (a product of corn).

Gut Peptides - Satiety Signals

Mountjoy, Kyiv 2003

Our sense of hunger and fullness are determined by complex interactions between a number of peptides (proteins) and hormones (such as leptin, PYY, CCK, ghrelin, and insulin) that relay signals from our gut to our brain . We are studying these signals and processes.

Page 26: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

As you may know, our eating patterns are affected by more than the caloric and nutritional value of food. The emotional and pleasurable aspects of feeding affect food intake.

It will come as no surprise, then, that the brain (particularly parts of the brain called the hypothalamus and the brainstem) has a central role in coordinating the many nutrient, hormonal, and behavioral signals to regulate food intake, metabolism, and ultimately body weight.

Page 27: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

These central circuits and neuro-peptides have a pivotal role in triggering hunger and food search, initiating satiety and generating responses to peripheral adiposity (fat) signals.

There are additional brain/central nervous system regions that participate in regulating appetitive behavior by mediating themotivational, cognitive, and emotional components of food intake. Gaining a better understanding of the brain’s role in weight is one of our goals.

Treatment Regimen

What happens at the first visit to the physician? • Your health and weight history is reviewed.• A physical exam is performed.• Your current medication list is examined.• The research is reviewed and your consent

to participate is obtained (if you are interested).

Page 36: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Change medication regimen

• Eliminate ‘weight positive’ medications

• Substitute weight neutral or weight negative medications1

Page 37: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Initiate caloric restriction

• Initial very-low-calorie diet (VLCD )(800 cals/day) or low-calorie-diet (LCD) (1000-1200 cals/day):

Why VLCD with HMR?

• HMR is a national healthcare company specializing in weight loss and weight management.

• HMR is a leading provider of meal replacement system in clinics and hospitals throughout the country.

Page 59: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

• Following 15% weight loss, food is reintroduced.

• An individualized diet plan is designed and implemented.

• Maintenance calorie amount is calculated and personalized.

Weight Maintenance Phase

Page 60: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Can people with diabetes use HMR shakes?

• Yes. HMR is frequently recommended by doctors for their patients with diabetes because of the foods' nutritional formulation and low calories.

• Your medication(s) will be monitored by our physicians, and dosage may change throughout the program.

Page 61: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

Can I use HMR shakes if I have food allergies?

• HMR products are generally well tolerated by most people. Some of our products, however, contain common allergens such as dairy, eggs, wheat, soy and peanuts.

• Please let us know if you have any allergies prior to beginning the shake regime, or if any GI discomfort occurs.

Page 62: Weight Management Clinic Program Orientation Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, Andrew Kraftson, MD, Charles Burant, MD, PhD Christine Fowler, RD, MS and Gina Neshewat,

I’m lactose intolerant. Is there lactose in HMR?• Most of the HMR Shakes contain lactose. However, people who are lactose-intolerant can use HMR shakes by taking a Lactaid® tablet.

• -or- HMR 70 Plus shakes are lactose-free

Blender Instructions:1. Pour 6 oz. cold water into a blender.

Begin mixing on lowest speed.2. While blender is on, add 1 packet

HMR shake mix and blend for 10 seconds.

3. Add 2 ice cubes, 1 at a time (replace blender cover in between)
