Is It an Eating Disorder? Votes:0 Obesity. Is it an eating disorder? Like most things, obesity is a complex phenomenon about which it is dangerous to generalize. What is true for one person is not necessarily true for the next. Nevertheless, we shall try to make sense out of conflicting theories and give answers to people who struggle to maintain self-esteem in a world that seems to be obsessed with youth, thinness, and the perfect body -- whatever that may be. What is obesity? A person with anorexia nervosa may define obesity as a weight gain of five pounds, from 89 to 94. A grandmother past menopause may call herself obese because she carries 165 pounds on her large-boned, muscular body. A modeling agency may talk about obesity when one of the women on the payroll puts 135 pounds on her 5'10" body.

Salt and other sodium-containing ingredients are often used in food processing. Some people add salt and salty sauces, such as soy sauce, to their food at the table, but most dietary sodium or salt comes from foods to which salt has already been added during processing or preparation. Although many people add salt to enhance the taste of foods, their preference may weaken with eating less salt. Sodium is associated with high blood pressure In the body, sodium plays an essential role in regulation of fluids and blood pressure.

For years, doctors have suspected a link between obesity and asthma. The presumption was always that asthma develops first, and that the respiratory limitations it causes makes it difficult for sufferers to exercise, which leads to obesity. The Harvard study, by Dr. Carlos A. Camargo Jr. , was designed to prove the theory. Instead, Camargo found that obesity develops first.

America's epidemic of obesity is still here. Something is making us fatter than we've ever been. One out of two Americans is now overweight. As recently as the early 1980's, it was "only" one in four. Clearly, we're eating too much and moving too little. Many people sit in front of computers all day, then go home and sit in front of the TV 'til bedtime. It doesn't help that restaurant entrees -- and even appetizers -- can pack 1,000 calories or more. We're drowning in "value meals," "two-pizzas-for-the-price-of-one," and other incentives to stuff ourselves. Some people have just thrown in the towel. They've had it with diets, had it with weight loss clinics, had it with health clubs. They feel destined to be fat. But not everyone.

Researchers have long known that obesity is a risk factor for diabetes. At the Obesity Research Center at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, researchers are gaining a better understanding of the connection between the two conditions. In the 1980s, studies first indicated clearly that not only is obesity a risk factor for diabetes, but the distribution of fat in the body also plays a role. Fat that is centrally located poses a greater risk of diabetes, says Dr. F.
