Be the first person responsible for your own healthy weight

2024-08-15

Regular weight monitoring, consistent exercise clock in, and attention to dietary balance... Nowadays, more and more people attach importance to weight management by learning scientific methods to reduce body fat, maintaining good eating habits, and other ways to manage weight, exercise physical fitness, and strengthen the body. Weight level is closely related to human health status. In recent years, China has vigorously implemented the Healthy China strategy, introduced a series of policy measures, carried out health knowledge popularization actions, and continuously improved the health status of the people. It should also be noted that due to unhealthy lifestyles such as unreasonable diet and lack of exercise, some people have problems with overweight and obesity. Medical research shows that abnormal weight, especially overweight and obesity, is an important factor leading to chronic diseases such as cardio cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes. Therefore, strengthening weight management and moving the health "gateway forward" must be taken seriously. Overweight and obesity are not only related to personal health, but also important livelihood issues. From "treating the disease before it occurs" to "treating the disease before it occurs", doing a good job in weight management means preventing and controlling related diseases from the source, and promoting the transformation from "treating the disease as the center" to "putting people's health at the center". Not long ago, the National Health Commission and 16 other departments launched the "Weight Management Year" campaign, aiming to enhance the public's awareness and skills in weight management, promote healthy lifestyles, improve the abnormal weight status of some populations, and further improve the overall health level of the population. Scientific weight management requires a correct understanding of healthy weight. In reality, some people believe that the thinner the person, the more beautiful they are, leading to excessive weight loss; Some people think it's better to be a little overweight and neglect weight management. In fact, both excessive and insufficient weight can have adverse effects on health. The 'ruler' used to determine if a person's weight is abnormal is their body mass index, which is calculated by dividing their weight (in kilograms) by the square of their height (in meters). A body mass index between 18.5 and 24 is considered healthy weight, below this range is considered underweight, above 24 is considered overweight, and above 28 is considered obese. Strengthening health education, eliminating cognitive misconceptions, and enhancing weight management awareness are essential for better prevention of overweight, obesity, and underweight. In addition to metabolic abnormalities and other disease factors, the main cause of overweight and obesity is eating too much and exercising too little, which leads to the body gaining more energy than it consumes, resulting in the accumulation of fat in the body. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on changing unhealthy lifestyles in science popularization, guiding people to "keep their mouths shut" and "take risks", and be the first responsible person for their healthy weight. It should be recognized that overweight and obesity is a public health issue that requires the whole society to work together to change. For example, in weight monitoring, families, employers, and other organizations can be encouraged to install weight scales and, if possible, human body composition analyzers to facilitate measurement at any time. In terms of reasonable diet, it is necessary to promote the construction of healthy canteens and restaurants, and reduce the sale of high salt, high sugar, and high-fat foods. In the field of scientific sports, communities, enterprises and institutions can carry out various forms of fun national fitness activities and sports competitions. Only by actively guiding the government, widely mobilizing society, and making everyone responsible and do their best can a strong force be formed to promote weight management throughout the entire life cycle of the population. Currently, the overweight and obesity rates among primary and secondary school students, sedentary workers, and other groups are on the rise, and it is necessary to focus on intervening in them. To guide children to develop healthy eating habits, encourage them to participate in outdoor activities regularly, and intervene promptly when abnormal weight monitoring is detected. For the sedentary workforce, employers should arrange their rest time reasonably, enrich their physical fitness activities, and improve their health literacy and physical fitness. By adopting targeted weight management strategies and measures for different populations, the level of precise weight management can be continuously improved. Healthy weight, universal participation, everyone benefits. Managing weight is also about managing one's own health expectations. Manage your weight well, let's take action together! (New Society)
