Discipline: | Metabolic Dis | Subject Definition: | Obesity-Therapy | NLM Class: | WD 210 | LC Class: | RC628 | Abstract: | This volume brings together an array of leading experts to discuss the causes and consequences of obesity today and present a comprehensive framework for treatment. The Handbook provides readily applicable guidelines for assessing an individual's need for weight reduction and planning appropriate interventions, based on the most current theoretical and empirical work in the field. Arranged in a stepped-care format, treatment approaches described include diet, physical activity, pharmacotherapy, surgery, and commercial and self-help programs. Also addressed are the challenges of maintaining weight loss, working with body image problems, cultural issues in treatment, prevention and management of pediatric obesity, and service provision in the primary care setting. |
