Finally A Cure for Obesity! Search AOA Career Center About AOA Our Sponsors Press Room ... Discrimination Childhood Obesity Obesity in children and adolescents is a serious issue with many health and social consequences that often continue into adulthood. Implementing prevention programs and getting a better understanding of treatment for youngsters is important to controlling the obesity epidemic. Many parents are rightly concerned about their child's weight and how it affects them. They look for specific answers for prevention and treatment options. Unfortunately, the state of the science is a lot less precise than we would like. Are kids too concerned about their weight? What are the best strategies for prevention? What treatments work over a long time? Researchers are trying to answer those and many other questions. In many cases, common sense works well. In situations where there are serious health, psychological or social problems, parents should seek out the best possible advice. Note: The term "childhood obesity" may refer to both children and adolescents. In general, we use the word, "children" to refer to 6 to 11 years of age, and "adolescents" to 12 to 17 years of age. If otherwise, and when possible, we will use a specific age or age range.

Subscribe now >> No Magic Pill for Weight Loss Q: I’m a post-menopausal woman of 55 years – and, unfortunately, about the same number of pounds (~50) over what I weighed before menopause. I sent once or twice for a diet aid through the mail, and since then I’ve been inundated with literature from every diet aid vendor in the world, it seems! Just recently, I received two offers promising to make me lose five or more pounds a day! I also saw an ad for an easy exercise system that can "oxidize" fat away. Can you comment on these seemingly impossible promises? And how do I get rid of the new spare tire around my waist that never was there before? A: "Impossible promises" is exactly what all these amazing diet offers are, even though they come with a "money-back guarantee." It seems that whenever I open the newspaper or a magazine or see a flyer posted on a board, I read about some miracle drug or supplement that will enable a person to lose lots of weight in a short time. After working with various obese patients and friends over the years, I'm convinced that there is no magic pill. Yes, phentermine and the Fen-Phen combination enabled people to lose 30, 40 or even 50 pounds, but as soon as they stopped taking the appetite suppressant, the weight returned. And fenfluramine, the "fen" part of fen-phen, has been shown to cause some heart valve problems, so was eventually taken off the market. (Phentermine is thought to be safe and is still in wide use.)
