			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If it can be avoided, why do not we stay away from the cause of obesity? Overweight or obesity is a global problem, which can hit people in developed and developing countries. Impact, such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, targeting people infected.</p>
<p>If someone is positive for diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, then it is called having metabolic syndrome. To determine metabolic syndrome, or collection of clinical symptoms associated with obesity, there paramater. Among other abdominal circumference, liguis tongue (the fat content in the neck), blood pressure, levels of HDL (good cholesterol), and blood sugar.</p>
<p>The main cause is the wrong diet, and lack of physical activity. World Health Organization (WHO) calls obesity as a dangerous disease. Because it concerns the degree of health problems.</p>
<p>According to Dr Widjaja Lukito, PhD, SEAMEO-TROPMED diirektur, at a workshop entitled Real Life Application of Overweight and Obesity Management in Bandung a few moments ago, being overweight is a problem for everyone because most everyone has made mistakes in managing diet. In addition, many people do not know how to combine food, and often consume a diet containing fat (fat meals).</p>
<p>Symptoms that can lead to overweight and obesity is hunger and appetite. Hunger is as hungry as the conditions that people must eat. While appetite associated with appetite.</p>
<p>&#8220;I see, the problem is not from food but the fat contained in food. This means that each human being should consider a healthy diet, fat content of food eaten should be low, and the nutrients in it must be balanced,&#8221; said Widjaja.</p>
<p><strong>Danger for women</strong><br />
Overweight and obesity not only affects health because it can cause complications illnesses. Rather, it is also at risk for psychological. Someone who will suffer a crisis of confidence due to being overweight.</p>
<p>The most dangerous, said Widjaja, if this happens to women. &#8220;Women who are overweight at risk of infertility, difficult to get a descent,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Obesity in children affects IQ (intelligence). IQ decline caused by neck size so that the respiratory tract affected. Oksigenisasi indirectly to the brain does not go smoothly. Therefore, the child experienced endurance, endurance studies disrupted. Of course, this can affect learning achievement.</p>
<p>Widjaja said the Indonesian people, especially in urban areas, tend to rarely perform physical activity. The number of facilities available, such as freight transportation, elevators, and other community causes do not want to walk.</p>
<p>In addition, lack of awareness of exercise such as walking, swimming, and gymnastics. Walking is the most expensive sport and safe to do. Although only 15 minutes, walk a very big effect because it can burn calories in the body.</p>
<p><strong>Measuring Calories</strong><br />
To find out how many calories are burned during physical activity is a tool called a Pedometer. Simply lightweight, this tool is easy to carry everywhere. Shaped like a pager, which can be stored at the waist.</p>
<p>In addition, there is a tool to measure waist circumference waist named type. The shape is quite unique, small, and easy to carry. How to use it fairly easily. Namely, hip circumference divided by hip circumference, the results should not be more than one. If more, it shows no accumulation of fat around the abdomen and pelvis. Normal waist circumference for women less than 80 cm. Meanwhile, for men less than 90 cm.</p>
<p>Body mass index (BMI)-Calculator is a tool to determine the size of the body. The tool is shaped like a compass, to show the height and weight. By comparing height and weight, we will know the size of our bodies. Is your body thin, normal, overweight, obesity, or extreme obesity.</p>
<p><strong>What to Look For</strong><br />
There are several things to note if you are overweight. If you want to and have the desire, it is not difficult for you to lose weight. According to Dr Widjaja Lukito, PhD, SEAMEO-TROPMED diirektur, doing regular physical activity of exercise for 30 minutes every day, consumption of foods low in fat, adjust your diet, consider that food consumed, and set to a variety of foods.</p>
<p>The definition of regular eating pattern that is in one meal should be vegetables, fruits, and nuts. &#8220;Food is too salty or sweet, bad for health,&#8221; he explained.</p>
<p>Raw foods containing high fiber such as purine, cholesterol, saturated fat is not a single, sodium, and potassium, may be easier for you to undergo a diet program and may prevent certain diseases.</p>
<p>It is also important to implement evaluation and monitoring. This is useful for monitoring the development of weight so the number of calories in and out can be known. </p>
