Decrease Satiety

-Beta Endorphins that enhance pleasure while eating -Neuropeptide Y (amino acid) -Decreased blood glucose levels from overnight fast

Limitations of Genetics

-Cannot account for body's resistance to weight loss -When people overeat by the same amount of food, they gain very different amounts of weight. -Genetic differences may explain why some people are better able to maintain a certain weight set point.

Metabolic Factor

-Relatively low BMR: weight gain and resistance to weight loss -Low level of spontaneous activity: fidgeting -Low sympathetic Nervous system: prone to obesity and more resistant to weight loss -Low fat oxidation: more carb oxidation+low fat oxidation= weight gain; if you oxidize more fat, you are more successful at maintaining weight loss

Helping Suspected Individuals

-Schedule a time to talk -Communicate conerns -Ask them to explore concerns with a health professional -Avoid conflicts or "battle of the wills" -Avoid placing shame/guilt/blame -Avoid giving "simple solutions" -Express continued support

Thermic Effect of Food

-The energy expended as a result of processing food consumed. -Energy we expend to digest, absorb, transport, metabolize, and to store nutrients -If a meal contains 500 kcal, the TEF will be about 25-50kcal -Applies only to mixed diets: combination of proteins, carbs, and fats

Physical Activity

-The energy that is expended on body movement and muscular work above basal levels. -NEAT( non exercise activity thermogenesis) -Excludes volitional sporting activities -Includes Spontaneous physical activity (fidgeting, shifting seating position) -Increased through extended physical activity. -Amount of energy expended depends on: body size, intensity of activity, duration of activity

Basal Metabolic Rate

-The energy the body expends to maintain its fundamental physiological functions - Decreases with age at 3-5% per decade after 30 -Energy expended to maintain fundamental physiological functions (respiration, circulation, body temp, hormone secretion, nervous system activity) -Primary determinant is lean body mass -60-75% of energy expenditure

Thrifty Gene Theory

-The theory that some people possess a gene that causes them to expend less energy at rest and during physical activity. -Purpose: to protect a person from starving to death during times of food shortage -"Found" in Native Americans: due to feast or famine, so those who had the gene survived when little food was available. -If true, those who possess the gene would face significant weight gain in our society and be resistant to weight loss.

Set Point Theory

-The theory that the body raises or lowers energy expenditure in response to increased or decreased food intake and physical activity. -Fasting and strict dieting may contribute to rebound weight gain dieters face. -Since we don't eat the same way each day, energy intake fluctuates, this maintaining result may support this theory.

Dangers of Ergogenic Aids
