Obesity may be a high risk factor for infection with the new coronary pneumonia and severe illness! Many studies have found that obese people have poor immune function, and the chance of getting influenza and the risk of severe illness are higher. The National Health Administration therefore calls on the prevention of the epidemic that during the epidemic, we should pay more attention to whether we and our family have obesity problems, and start to take action from adjusting our "diet" and "sports" life, and weigh our weight every day to reduce the fight against the epidemic.
The most important thing to adjust lifeBody mass index (BMI) is a standard for evaluation. If it is greater than or equal to 24kg/m2 (kg/m2) as a body weight, it is obesity if it exceeds 27kg/m2. According to the results of the Taiwan National Nutrition and Health Status Change Survey from 2015 to 2018, the overweight and obesity rate of adults over the age of 18 was 47.1%, 55.7% for men and 38.7% for women.
The causes of excessive weight and obesity are mostly caused by excessive heat consumption and excessive consumption, which leads to accumulation of heat and accumulation in the body in the form of fat. In addition to spreading, it is mainly affected by factors such as the environment and lifestyle.
Director of the National Health Administration Wang Yingwei reminded that reducing the weight and adjusting diet and increasing exercise will be successful if necessary, according to the doctor's suggestion, the doctor will recommend the reduction plan or use medicine to succeed. And use a healthy lifestyle to strengthen resistance and jointly resist the epidemic.
Remember three things:Remembering weight reduction must be adjusted through self-management, and the National Health Administration provides three things to reduce weight, so that weight reduction can increase health.
1. Eat clearly: Follow the principle of "three more and three less" in your diet: drink more white water, eat more fruits and vegetables, more grainy food, less oil, less salt, and less sugar. Reduce heat ingestion or increase energy activity, which reduces heat by 500 calories per day, which can reduce the weight by about 0.5 kg per week. Never listen to folk remedies, adopt extreme methods, and if the daily heat intake is less than 1,200 calories, it will harm your health.
2. Happy: Those who lose weight should have more than 300 minutes of moderate-strength physical activities every week, and add high-strength aerobic exercise or high-strength rest. During the epidemic prevention period, indoor sports equipment can be used or the National Health Administration can provide a set of circulating sports teaching videos for the public (https://www.smarthealth.org.tw/zh-tw/videos.php?act=view&id=191). Just prepare two bottles of mineral water to achieve sports effects at home.
3. Measure weight every day: measuring weight has a vigilant effect and helps to control the appetite of the mouth and abdomen. Control or maintaining weight requires long-term resistance. In addition to learning the skills of choosing food correctly, measure weight every day and remind yourself not to let the weight get out of control.
