Virus might be the key to obesity

Was a common human infection of mice or chicken are not infected more easily than the growth of fat. They also found that the same virus is also a lot of obese people were found, so the virus is likely to lead to human obesity.

University of Wisconsin researchers found that a common human infection of mice or chicken are not infected more easily than the growth of fat. They also found that the same virus is also a lot of obese people were found, so the virus is likely to lead to human obesity.

In four experiments, the researchers will adenovirus -36 (adenovirus in a family) to the vaccination on chickens and mice. Most of adenovirus can cause the common cold, influenza and diarrhea.

A few months later, those who have been vaccinated adenovirus -36 weight of the animals are not vaccinated more than 7% of the group, and with the body fat is not against the group twice.

Nikhil Dhurandhar members of the research said: "This is the first animal has been proven to cause human obesity virus." This is also the first study of the virus, so that other human viruses it will also lead to obesity.

-36 Adenovirus choice because it is a relatively simple operation, and little is known about the virus. They are about to study in the International Journal of Obesity published monthly 8. The latest research indicates that not all obese due to the virus, but the virus may indeed play an important role.

An unpublished study pointed out: "Obesity among the crowd of about 20-30% -36 adenovirus infection, and infection rates are only wasting 5%. As in the past few years, people have found that many chronic diseases are due to infection Rise, the experts of the research team's findings are not particularly surprising.

There are 3 kinds of micro-organisms that may have been led to the blockage of blood vessels in the past has been that because of long-term ulcer or stress caused by poor diet, and now know that Helicobacter pylori-related.

In addition, several animal viruses known to cause human or animal fat. But adenovirus is -36 to increase the fat content of the first human virus. Researchers do not know how adenovirus -36 lead to obesity, than non-infected animals infected animals eat more, it is possible to reduce the energy consumption rather than increasing appetite caused by obesity.

Dhurandhar, a professor that the virus has increased the number of fat cells to store more fat. Animal virus-induced obesity and adenovirus -36, which is part of the damage to the brain to control appetite and lead to obesity. Wisconsin group had not adenovirus -36 infected animals found in brain damage.

Paradoxically, animals infected with the virus, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, obesity and cholesterol in human and higher triglyceride levels. Atkinson said: "We need more research in order to obtain better results, now they are said to create an anti-virus vaccines to prevent obesity is still too early."

It should be noted that the process of weight loss, which are two key stage

In the implementation of the obese lose weight, the following should be noted that two key stages:
The first is the key to the beginning. In the initial stage of weight loss, patients often can be strictly in accordance with the guidance of a doctor, diet and exercise therapy treatment. Therefore, at this stage in patients with obvious weight loss. Yet it must be noted: In this initial stage, the stage, causing weight loss is mainly caused by the protein in muscle tissue and the loss of water rather than by consumption of fatty tissue. The researchers also pointed out that no one in the first weight loss within 1 week weight will drop soon, but this time only the reduction of body fat rather than water. During this period, the patients in the short term due to be able to see their "remarkable" achievements of the weight loss is often very happy. However, this phase of the short duration, the body of water loss and negative nitrogen balance after a period of time to adapt to the After gradually reduced. Especially in the diet in the supply of quality protein, the body of negative energy balance to the gradual transition to the main body through the consumption of fat to compensate. It was mentioned in front of the same weight of fat provided by the energy of the protein is more than 1, the rate of weight loss when smaller, slower speed. With appropriate physical activity, although the body can break down fat, but also enable the body to reduce the negative nitrogen balance, the increase in protein synthesis. As a result, even though at this time in the amount of body fat reduction, but not the magnitude of changes in body weight, then easily cause patients to lose weight a false sense of void, so that patients lose confidence. At this point patients should be given a detailed explanation of these changes in the body, strengthen the confidence of patients.
It should be noted that the second critical stage, the patient achieved remarkable results in weight loss after that period of time. At this point in patients with body weight decreased significantly, patients immersed in the joy of the success of weight loss, easy to relax their control over diet and sports to keep the volume, which could cause excessive energy intake again. This stage if they can not adhere to the patients often come to naught, and give the impression that life-long regret. U.S. scientists have found that many of the purposes of weight loss in patients 1 year after treatment period of time, has lost weight often will be picked up, mainly to lose weight and diet can slow down the rate of patients with body metabolism, weight loss, even a small increase in food intake Will lead to weight gain related. The researchers pointed out that in order to successfully maintain their weight loss results, it should appropriately increase the amount of exercise. Therefore, at this stage to remind patients to maintain a low energy diet, adhere to the sport, is the only way to consolidate the effects of weight loss, body weight to avoid rebound.
