Gradual childhood weight loss to prevent any weight related health complication in good time

Gradual childhood weight loss: Keeping and staying on a healthy weight

Obesity is not happening like an accident it develops gradually over a period of time and interestingly once settled it cannot be solved overnight. The solution will also take the same gradual process. If you or your child is struggling with obesity or overweight, you must be ready to take one step at a time. The gradual childhood weight loss process will not be easy but at the same time it is not impossible. Your first step would be to acknowledge that there is a problem. With the right people around you the process may even be much friendly and enjoyable.

Nonetheless, when talking about solutions, it is important that we look towards preventions. Our children must not be allowed to go through this problem of weight gain and its associates. It therefore, means that we must prioritize helping our children lose weight by being there for them in all dimensions. I have talked about prevention and for sure this is the best remedy. It is always much easier and economical to prevent weight gain by maintaining a healthy weight than it is to losing it (weight). Doctor Dalal Akoury a weight loss professional of over two decades and the founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center is sharing with us some of the available options for our consumption.

Gradual childhood weight loss: Make it a whole family effort

Obesity is not just your child’s problem. It is a problem that the whole family must be involved in solving. Your child lives within your family environment.
Chances are, someone else in your family has also struggled with weight or experienced obesity. They may be able to offer valuable help and support in developing realistic goals for your child.
As a family try to think of problems that you have solved successfully. This will help you stay positive, and look for other areas that are opportunities for change.
Mealtimes should be family times. Create a relaxed atmosphere around mealtime. Eat slowly and enjoy your food. Eat together as a family, and don’t watch TV during meals. Families that do not eat together tend to consume more fried foods and soda and less fruits and veggies than families that share meals.

Be a positive role model: Remember children are the best photocopiers. They are very observant and will do exactly what you do and very little on what you say. They may be getting the best teaching in their schools but if what they observe at home is different then, that is what they will do. In other words if your whole family eats healthy foods and gets active then your child will do the same with ease. This explains why gradual childhood weight loss must begin from home. After all the holy book say train a child the way he/she should go and when they grow up they will not depart from it. If you want to know more, you can schedule an appointment with doctor Akoury now and she will help you understand professionally.

Stress complication in weight control

March 21, 2017

Stress complication in weight control is a serious problem in this generation

Stress complication in weight control: Keeping distressing elements from bringing you down

Stress complicates everything and is also associated with nearly everything we do, think or places we go to. Much as I do not want to agree with the school of thought that stress is becoming part of people’s lives my introductory statement betrays me. I want therefore, pose this question to you, who is reading this article right now “can stress cause you to gain weight?” are you able to see the connection between the two? This is what we want to find out and with the help of professionals at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under doctor Dalal Akoury’s care. Stay tuned because all the stress complication in relation to weight control will be addressed professionally as we progress.

Start by looking at the environment around you and evaluate each condition. Like for instance, your job is hanging on the balance and it is only a matter of time before you get the termination letter. The credit-card bills are mounting. Your teenage children are threatening to quit school and become something else you’re troubled your spouse has filed a divorce in court. Everything around you is not just right and all your efforts to bring them to manageable levels are not yielding anything consoling. You are stressed and hopeless. Irrespective of the reason or reasons, stress is a way of life in this generation. And because we are different, stress will also affect us differently. If you are in that category where stress is beyond the normal feelings of anxiety and discomfort, then stress can mean facing each passing day gluttonously hungry and adding weight gain to the list of your problems.

Stress complication in weight control: Chronic stress

Even though the immediate response to acute stress can be a temporary loss of appetite, it is however becoming evident that for some people, chronic stress can be tied to an increase in appetite and stress-induced weight gain. The problem in this case lies within our neuroendocrine system which is a brain-to-body connection that harkens back to evolutionary times and which helped our distant ancestors to survive. Though today the source of the stress is more likely to be an unpaid bill than a saber-toothed tiger, this system still activates a series of hormones whenever we feel threatened. These hormones give us the biochemical strength we need to fight or flee our stressors.

The hormones released when we’re stressed include adrenalin which gives us instant energy along with corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) and cortisol. While high levels of adrenalin and CRH decrease appetite at first, the effects usually don’t last long. And cortisol works on a different timetable. Its job is to help us replenish our body after the stress has passed, and it hangs around a lot longer. It can remain elevated, increasing your appetite and ultimately driving you to eat more. Finally, because of this, it is clear that stress complications is an impediment to health since it attacks on our weight control directly. This should motivate you to schedule an appointment with doctor Akoury now for the commencement of your recovery programs.

Steatohepatitis diseases treatment

Steatohepatitis diseases treatment needs time action and must be done professionally

Steatohepatitis diseases treatment: Nonalcoholic fatty liver complication

In our previous article we looked at the causes and consequences of nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis disease broadly. Guided by that we want to find treatment solutions of this uncalled for health condition. Whereas prevention is the best approach of all possible health conditions, we often find ourselves suffering from certain health conditions which could have otherwise been prevented. Therefore if you are in anyway suffering from any weight related condition, help is on the way at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under Doctor Akoury’s care. Doctor Akoury is an expert of several decades of experience in matters relating to overweight, obesity, addiction and beauty among many other disciplines. She has been of great help to many people across the globe and your situation will be very safe in her care. You can schedule for an appointment with her even as we get into the discussion about treating nonalcoholic fatty liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis diseases (NASH) progressively.

Steatohepatitis diseases treatment: NAFLD and NASH

Accumulation of fat in the liver (fatty liver) is common in all stages of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The initial stage in the spectrum of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is fatty liver (steatosis).
The basic cause of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is insulin resistance, a condition in which the effects of insulin on cells within the body are reduced. The most frequent risk factor for insulin resistance is obesity, especially abdominal obesity.
Fatty liver is itself quite harmless, disappears rapidly with loss of weight, and infrequently progresses to Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which is the next stage of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
In Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis there is accumulation of fat in the liver, but there also is inflammation (hepatitis), destruction (necrosis) of liver cells, and scarring (fibrosis) of the liver. The scarring can progress to cirrhosis, which is the last stage of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
The risk factors, the time-line, and the processes (mechanisms) responsible for progression through the stages of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease are still unclear.
The presumptive diagnosis of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is made in individuals who are insulin resistant, have mildly elevated liver enzymes in the blood, and have signs of fatty liver on an ultrasound. These patients must have no other cause for the abnormal enzymes or for the fatty liver, particularly no excessive use of alcohol.
If weight loss results in a decrease or normalization of the liver enzymes, the diagnosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is practically assured. Only a liver biopsy, however, can confirm the diagnosis of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and determine the severity of the disease.
Whether or not it is vital to perform a liver biopsy in individuals with suspected nonalcoholic fatty liver disease or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is still debated among liver specialists since no well-proven treatments are available. A liver biopsy can exclude other liver diseases as the cause of the abnormal tests or fat and provide information about the stage (and therefore the expected outcome) of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It also may provide an incentive for an individual to adopt a healthy lifestyle (diet and exercise) with the aim of losing weight.
Weight loss, if overweight, and correcting elevated cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar should be beneficial in Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Depressed sexual life problems

Depressed sexual life problems can be a source of disunity in families

Depressed sexual life problems: What can be done?

The kind of life dynamics we are living in today is very demanding, challenging and competitive. In the process of trying to meet the demands of life, we are faced with challenges at times which make us feel down and depressed. These feelings of depressions normally don’t last long and as soon as the issue at hand is sorted out the depression moment ceases. However, when depression stretches for a long period of time, it becomes a point of concern. It can start to affect every area of your life. It must be remembered that depression and pleasures of your sex life cannot be friends by all means. In fact being depressed will take away many if not all of your sexual life pleasures. If you are depressed the whole of your life will feel it because it drains the color out of life’s pleasures, robs enthusiasm, and makes everything feel weak and flat including your sex life. It is estimated that about 35 to 47 percent of people dealing with depression find the mood disorder interferes with their sexuality. That percentage may even go up depending on the intensity of the condition of an individual patient.

Depressed sexual life problems: Why sex and depression don’t mix

The old saying that the brain is the biggest sex organ in the body is actually true in that nothing happens without the direct approval of the brain, doctor Dalal Akoury MD President and founder of AWAREmed health and wellness resource center reiterates that, the brain controls sexual drive, arousal, and sexual function through the release of hormones and nerve impulses. Depression stems from a chemical imbalance in the brain, and that imbalance can cause interference with a person’s ability to enjoy sex or perform sexually. Besides these the following are also associated with depression:

A decrease in libido – The findings of a study of some depressed patients showed that more than two-thirds of respondents reported a loss of interest in sex. The decrease in their libido grew worse as their depression grew more severe.

Erectile dysfunction – Depression and anxiety are leading psychological factors interfering in a man’s ability to have and sustain an erection.

Inability to enjoy sex – Depression can limit or eliminate the pleasure normally drawn from sex. Depressed men feel disconnected from any sexual experience. It’s a dehumanization kind of situation.

Finally, besides these associations, the cure of depression can worsen the situation than the disease, and this too can be true when it comes to depression and sexuality. Like for instance, we are aware that the antidepressants are part of the first-line treatment of the mood disorder, but one of their chief side effects can be sexual dysfunction. Decrease in libido is most often reported, but patients also have found that antidepressants can cause erectile dysfunction and inhibit sexual pleasure. Statistics indicate that certain patients are using antidepressants which are adversely linked to loss of sexual desire or trouble reaching orgasm. We can rewrite what is contain in the statistics by scheduling an appointment with doctor Akoury now for professionalism in addressing all kinds of depressed sexual life problems we may be facing from time to time.

Incorporating weight loss in the family

Incorporating weight loss in the family by encouraging good diet for good health

Incorporating weight loss in the family: Seeking family support in losing weight

For effective weight loss in the family, everybody must be involved. This may not be easy if it has not been in the family culture to feed on healthy diet. It is therefore, important that each family should consider inculcating healthy living from the beginning. However, the following are some of the process you could consider along the way:

If you’re the only one trying to lose weight, others may see your attempts to change the family eating habits as unfair.
One way of dealing with this, of course, is to cook separate meals for yourself. Another is to make mealtime changes less about your weight loss goals, and more about upgrading the family to a healthier way of eating.
Don’t just say Mom or Dad is on a diet. Instead, tell them you are all going to work together, as a family, to improve everyone’s health through healthier eating.
To get your children on board, talk about the advantages of sports nutrition, brainpower, and muscles and energy to work and play. When talking to your spouse, mention things like aging gracefully, better sex, more stamina.
Get them to see an advantage for them if they adopt some of your healthy eating plans.

What can also help: Coming up with healthful activities you and your spouse can do together like doubles tennis or a walking program. Getting the whole family involved in at least one group activity every week can also help.

Recognize that you really don’t need anyone but yourself to succeed.
We should also use this time to teach our children about things like healthy portions and mindful eating; reminding them that it’s not a good idea to eat until they’re stuffed, but only until they’re full.
This is a great time to teach others good, basic principles of healthy eating things that will make a difference in their life down the road.
It may help if you mention that the suggestions for change came from your doctor.
You don’t want to scare the children or even your spouse, but if you mention your doctor has suggested some dietary changes for the whole family, it does elicit a level of respect that encourages people to cooperate more.

Incorporating weight loss in the family: You’ve got to have friends

Remember that you’re the one to be on top of everything. Yes weight loss should incorporate the whole family but if your effort to involve them is failing, you must recognize that you’re the vision bearer and the success of this journey is on you with or without the family support. You have the power to do it on your own. You have to want to do it for you and you have to take control. Beside, losing weight isn’t easy, and having some encouragement somewhere is important. So if you can’t get that team spirit inside the home, look for friends at your gym or find a workmate who is either in the same place as you are, or has already been there and can help to coach you. Finally involve the experts in every step you take. Doctor Akoury will be there for you all the way.
