Behavior, Not Genetics, Is Accused In Obesity Claim

Though it is widely believed that genetics play a major role on obesity and overweight conditions, a recent study has determined that the current data we have available does not support this belief.

The study conducted by American College of Sports Medicine claims that the human genotype has not really changed over the past few decades. Furthermore, the study claims that conditions such as dietary induced thermo genesis, defects in a resting metabolic rate, substrate metabolism, etc., can not be attributed to genetics because the data does not support these findings.

According to the study, it has been a change in global behavior and not genetics which has contributed to the worldwide overweight condition which has prevailed over the past few decades.

Global Obesity Cannot Be Attributed to Excess Food Intake Either
The study proved, through national surveys, that current day caloric intake isn't really higher than it was a few decades ago. People aren't really eating more now than they were a few years back. In fact, all of the surveys that were analyzed determined that there has been either a slight decline or a slight increase in total caloric intake but nothing major. This has led the researchers to believe that people have become overweight and obese mainly because they are simply exerting less physical activity.

Declining Physical Activity as the Major Contributor to Obesity and Overweight
Technology has automated most of the activities that previously required physical movement. The need for both home and work related physical activity has dramatically declined. The energy expenditure which was necessary for daily living has been greatly reduced; or so claims the study. This means that people are taking in approximately the same amount of food that they were consuming a few years ago but they are simply not burning it off. All of these unused calories are contributing to obesity.

Solutions for the Overweight and Obese
From the above findings we can honestly say that there are only two possible solutions for global obesity. Current day people realistically need fewer calories than they did a few years back so they must either eat less or supplement the loss of work and home related physical activity with a simple exercise routine. Anyway, jogging in the morning is much nicer then consuming diet pills to fix the problem when it comes to your doorstep. Think about it!

Why You Should Not Ignore Enlarged Prostate Symptoms

Most men over 50 usually suffer from enlarged prostate or benign prostate hyperlasia (BPH). Until now, no medical report can explain why some men have enlarged prostate. After you have been diagnosed with BPH, you continue to live with the symptoms and resulting discomfort. Even though it is not a life threatening condition, you better seek treatment if you have any of the enlarged prostate symptoms.

The size of a normal prostate gland should be as big as a walnut. However, as you reach mid forties, the gland tends to become bigger. It could be because of the hormonal imbalance.

You may encounter several symptoms of BPH. Most of the signs are related to urinary problems. For example, you tend to make a lot of effort to urinate and you visit the toilet more frequently, especially at night. Other signs may include urine leakage, feeling of an unemptied bladder, and interrupted flow of urine.

You may experience more serious symptoms such as urination obstruction, nausea, back pain, presence of blood in the urine, and fever.

Swollen prostate can lead to further complication if you don't treat it. It causes blockage by clogging your kidneys with urine. In such cases, acute urinary retention can happen. It may even develop into chronic kidney disease, kidney damage or infection, bladder damage, and bladder stones.

To cope with the symptoms of enlarged prostate, visit your doctor regularly for a prostate checkup, especially if you are in your forties. Don't feel ashamed as BPH is a normal process of aging. Make sure you follow the doctor's advice on treatment for prostate. Some medications such as alpha-blockers and finasteride can relieve the symptoms of BPH.

You may wish to pursue an alternative remedy. However, you need to know that not all herbal supplements are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) especially saw palmetto, a common remedy for prostate problems. They may not help at all.

Enlargement of the prostate can be a nuisance in your life. However, you can still find treatments for it. The best route of action is to seek a professional opinion from a urologist.
