Psychotherapeutic treatment of excess weight

Excessive weight is a pathological accumulation of excess weight due to fat tissue, which leads to the development of diseases.

                                                  Causes of overweight.

  • 1. Genetics.
  • 2. Mode of nutrition.
  • 3 Hypodynamics.
  • 4. Medical products/medicines.
  • 5. Diseases leading to overweight.
  • 6. Stressors.

    Genetic predisposition to obesity is associated with variability in genes that cause obesity. Some gene mutations cause obesity. These same mutations can lead to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Disorders are associated with the synthesis of coding proteins responsible for regulating the amount of energy that is deposited as fat deposits in the body.
    A fat tissue (aka adipose tissue) produces lepine protein, its amount is proportional to the volume of adipose tissue. It activates the hypothalamus, which begins to produce the hormone melanocortin. Melanocortin reduces the need for food in humans. 
    
  Nutrition mode.

Improper eating patterns are primarily irregularity of food intake, eating in a rush, single or two meals a day in a large volume leads to an excessive influx of calories into the body and their deposition in the body's fat cells which leads to overweight.

   Hypodynamics.

Sedentary work at the office, a lack of desire to move and exercise lead to the fact that the stored energy in the form of fat are not burned, but continues to be accumulated by the body, which leads to an increase in body weight.

Medicinal products.

Some drugs (corticosteroid hormones, antidepressants, antipsychotics, etc.) lead
to disturbance of hormonal metabolism and accumulation of adipose tissue.

Diseases leading to overweight.

  • 1. Hypothyroidism.
  • 2. Insuloma.
  • 3. Cushing syndrome.
  • 4. Corticoestrom.
  • 5. Damage to brain areas regulating digestion.
  • 6. Brain tumors that create growth hormone deficiency.
  • 7. Postpartum neuroendocrine syndromes.
  • 8. Hypothalamic puberty syndrome.
