CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) Americans are not just getting fatter, they are ballooning to extremely obese proportions at an alarming rate. The number of extremely obese American adults those who are at least 100 pounds overweight has quadrupled since the 1980s to about 4 million. That works out to about 1 in every 50 adults. Extreme obesity once was thought to be a rare, distinct condition whose prevalence remained relatively steady over time. The new study contradicts that thinking and suggests that it is at least partly due to the same kinds of behavior overeating and under-activity that have contributed to the epidemic number of Americans with less severe weight problems.

August 30, 1999 Web posted at: 5:02 p.m. EDT (2102 GMT) By Laura Lane (WebMD) It's been four years since scientists first announced that they had found a hormone that could be the answer to the cries of the obese. Leptin, as scientists dubbed the hormone, helped obese mice to lose weight and possibly could do the same in people. As clinical trials progress, though, leptin is not looking to be quite as effective as first thought, said Dr. Daniel Porte Jr. of the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, who has been studying obesity for more than 20 years. ALSO New hormone may help treat obesity The hormone has been effective in the 5 percent of obese people who lack the ability to make leptin, he said. Otherwise, for the vast majority of the obese, the hormone has been largely ineffective in reducing weight. In fact, because fat cells produce leptin, most obese people have high levels of the hormone, which encourages the brain to make alpha-MSH, which goes on to regulate body weight somehow.

Index Archive Search New Treatments > Obesity What is Obesity ? Obesity occurs when the body is storing too much fat in its adipose tissue. The adipose tissue is primarily located under the skin and on top of each kidney. Men tend to carry body fat in their chest, abdomen and buttocks (apple shape). A woman tends to carry body fat in her breasts, hips, waist and buttocks (pear shape). The effects of the disease, in terms of death, disability and morbidity are devastating. Despite the enormous toll taken by obesity, however, the disease does not receive the attention it deserves from government, the health care profession or the insurance industry. The United States spends billions on health care. Yet, the rates for obesity are escalating. The impact caused by type 2 diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, stroke and the other conditions caused by obesity are only going to escalate The cause I will show how obesity is caused and further, knowing the cause will automatically present the solution. We will search for the way our body stores fat.
