Obesity is not only faced by adults only. however, many children who experience excessive weight problems. Then, what kind of diet program that should be applied to children with obesity?
According to the data, do regular exercise on a diet program for children and adults, generally do not help them lose weight. "Exercise is important, but let us not too concerned with sports, but also the diet itself," explained gary bennett, obesity prevention researchers at duke university, north carolina
As written at reuters.com ( 23/6/2013 ), the important thing to do on a diet program for children and adults is to change your diet, change the diet and reduce calories in the food consumed.
researchers examined the results of 14 trials involving initially overweight adolescents. they were asked to do the diet and exercise program or just maintain weight. The program runs a half to six months
Generally, studies have shown that some children have a body mass index (ratio of weight and height) were lower and the percentage of body fat were smaller after they are doing both programs. add aerobic exercise like jogging and dancing and not much has effect on weight loss. However, children who do endurance exercise for example run around with his friends, lost more body fat compared to those who did not exercise.
body resistance training along one hour or less each week led to a decrease of 0.5% body fat and increase muscle mass. endurance exercise not only burns calories but also build muscle mass that is useful to lose weight or maintain weight, said writer named mandy Ho from the university of sydney
Ho and his colleagues found that regular exercise can increase insulin levels and HDL (good cholesterol) in the body. It is very important for children, because restricting food intake can cause adverse effects on change and growth, he added.
A recent study to get a little evidence that weight loss program services can transform a body mass index of children. therefore, Bennett said diet and regular exercise is probably a very efficient way to lose weight.
