Book excerpt: Experts now predict that more than one-third of American children born in 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime. Written by one of the world’s leading authorities on the link between obesity and diabetes, this passionate, frightening–but ultimately hopeful–book points the way to a solution. To enter Dr. Francine Kaufman’s clinic is to see the future of America: a 220-pound twelve-year-old boy…a 267-pound thirteen-year-old girl…their concerned but equally overweight parents…the human faces and human suffering behind the epidemic of type 2 diabetes that threatens to overwhelm our health care system. Once a disease of the elderly, type 2 diabetes now strikes adults in their prime–and, increasingly, children. It has nearly doubled in the last decade. The cause? Our soaring rates of obesity. Diabesity takes us to the front lines of the fight against this preventable but deadly disease. Through vivid patient stories, it explains how excess weight destroys the body’s ability to process sugar properly–with life-threatening consequences. It shows what happens when the genes that evolved to protect us from famine collide with a sedentary lifestyle that has put bacon cheeseburgers on every corner. And it demonstrates why our usual blame-the-victim response is futile in face of the complex, worldwide forces behind this epidemic. Detailing the tools for change at every level–from families to school systems to government–and reporting on innovative programs that are already making a difference, Diabesity offers a compelling action plan for winning this battle.

Book excerpt: Diabesity is the single biggest global health challenge of the 21st century just as the HIV/AIDS epidemic was in the last 20 years of the 20th century. You may not have heard of “Diabesity” and yet statistically speaking, you have a 50% chance of having it or you are already having it and don’t know about it. This word comes from an unhappy combination of Diabetes + Obesity or commonly referred to as “obesity-dependent diabetes” caused by the combination of unstable sugar and weight gain that can cripple you.This book might just change your life. This time around not only are young and middle-aged people (40-59) around the world affected but young children are now not spared. This means that there is a real need to learn more about the prevention of diabesity.No one ever dies of diabesity. They die of other chronic illness induced or made worse by diabesity like kidney disease, diabetes, heart attack, stroke, blindness, and amputation. Some topics of special interest include: • What is diabesity? • What if you ignore diabesity? • Screening for diabesity • What you can do if you have diabesity • Call to action Your attitude and outlook can influence diabesity – for better or worse. Don’t gamble your life away from this preventable silent killer of the 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabesity is a growing nightmare. This book provides tips to balance the scale, and to help readers navigate their way out of this metabolic mess. It answers when, how, and what to eat. When, how, and for how long to exercise. It empowers readers to recognize the bodys worst metabolic enemy. That is visceral adiposity, or simply put fat deposition in the midsection. For healthy non-diabetics, it is a call to action to avoid turning to a pre-diabetic, and to prevent those with pre-diabetes from progressing to diabetes. For Diabetics, it presents the ambitious hope to reverse diabetes, or to slow its progression and prevent its devastating complications ranging from cardiovascular death to living blind, on dialysis or with an amputated limb. It highlights in a storytelling mode the body intricate design to handle its metabolic demands. It then illustrates the linkage between the visceral fat deposition, and the body developing resistance to its own insulin. Insulin resistance is what leads eventually to the high blood pressure, the elevated blood glucose and abnormalities in the circulating lipids, namely cholesterol and similar particles, and even gout. This is a tool in the hand of every one who wishes a healthier life, free from threats of Diabetes, obesity and their setbacks. It is the next right step after mere wishing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obesity has become the most common chronic disease of the present day, with significant increases in prevalence in populations across the world and all age groups. This has resulted in a dramatic increase in obesity-related metabolic and cardiovascular complications, making it an important public health issue. Type 2 diabetes associated with obesity or 'diabesity' is today the most common form of type 2 diabetes. It is also associated with a number of other cardiovascular risk factors, which constitute the metabolic syndrome. Effective management of 'diabesity' is crucial to the reduction of morbidity and premature mortality due to cardiovascular disease. This book comprises chapters written by leading international experts on various aspects of obesity-related diabetes. As a practical reference guide, it is suitable for all professionals with an interest in this field. Emerging problems such as childhood 'diabesity' and the impact of obesity on polycystic ovary syndrome will be of interest not only to paediatricians and endocrinologists, but also to general practitioners and other healthcare professionals. The contemporary approach to the clinical assessment of obesity and its management in both primary and secondary care settings is also described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the crowded and busy arena of obesity and fat studies, there is a lack of attention to the lived experiences of people, how and why they eat what they do, and how people in cross-cultural settings understand risk, health, and bodies. This volume addresses the lacuna by drawing on ethnographic methods and analytical emic explorations in order to consider the impact of cultural difference, embodiment, and local knowledge on understanding obesity. It is through this reconstruction of how obesity and fatness are studied and understood that a new discussion will be introduced and a new set of analytical explorations about obesity research and the effectiveness of obesity interventions will be established.
