WHO announced that there are by now 1 billion adults who are overweight and 300, 000 of them are identified as obese. The rising number of overweight and obese people has grown at an disturbing rate; it has also arrived at global epidemic sizes. Reasons of obesity have been linked to over consumption of food that are high in sugar and saturated fats that are animal-based, sedentary lifestyle, and the altered eating patterns among cultures in highly urbanized areas around the world.
Obesity is one of the many forces of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, heart diseases and some kinds of cancer. Presently obesity has become one of the most public health issues especially in developing countries.
If this issue is not addressed to right away, people will be at risk of deadly diseases due to obesity. Medical science the world over has continuously in search of scientific breakthroughs about obesity. This is in reply to the global need to stop health-related risk of obesity. A research in Albert Einstein College of Medicine's medical researchers has yet to be proven as one of the medical advancements on obesity.
According to the study that keeping the level of fatty acids in the brain can be the cure to obesity. Moreover the study aims to alter the effects of molecular substance malonyl CoA. This molecule is supposed to have been an influence on the actions of the hypothalamus, which in effect increases the hunger of a person.
If the scientist can found a way to change the amount of malonyl CoA in the brain, people will no longer crave for so much food. This research is posing promise to treat obesity to children and adults in a similar way, although it is yet to be experimented on humans.
Medical scientists from Imperial College have discovered a way to suppress the hunger for food among humans. Injecting a drug that increases the oxyntomodulin level in the stomach was being done in diabetic patients. This hormone, which is produced naturally by the body sends out message to the brain that the stomach is full.
