NONA MAGAZINE ISSUE MAY 2012: Obesiti Virus Segala Penyakit Kronik


OBESITI

VIRUS SEGALA PENYAKIT KRONIK


Ibu merupakan insan yang penting di dalam keluarga. Setelah bergelar ibu, seseorang wanita itu akan memberikan sepenuh perhatian terhadap urusan rumah tangga. Peranan mereka cukup besar bukan sekadar menjadi tempat curahan kasih sayang, bahkan memastikan segala keperluan anak-anak dipenuhi. Lantas kerana kesibukan yang dilalui, ada kalanya mendorong si ibu mengabaikan kesihatan diri sendiri.

Seorang wanita akan sentiasa mengalami perubahan hormon dalam badan mereka. Dua hormon yang penting bagi wanita ialah hormon estrogen dan progesteron. Fungsi hormon estrogen ialah mengekalkan sifat kewanitaan seorang wanita, kesihatan jantung, tulang, memori otak, kesuburan dan keanjalan kulit.

Fungsi hormon progesteron pula ialah mengekalkan ciri kewanitaan, kesuburan, ketenangan emosi, kesihatan tulang, antikanser dan menstabilkan air dalam badan. Perubahan hormon berlaku setiap kali berlakunya kitaran haid, mengandung, selepas bersalin serta menopaus. Kaedah perancangan keluarga yang berasaskan hormon juga menyebabkan hormon tidak stabil di dalam badan. Perubahan hormon ini menyebabkan seorang wanita itu kerap mengalami masalah mengawal berat badan.

OBESITI

Menurut Pakar Perubatan, Dr. Nurhalina Azly Minhat, obesiti ialah keadaan apabila berat melebihi BMI 30 (Indeks Jisim Tubuh) (Formula Kiraan: BMI = berat (kg)/tinggi(m) x tinggi(m). Jika seorang ibu mempunyai BMI melebihi 30, risiko untuk mendapat penyakit kronik akan meningkat. Antara penyakit-penyakit kroniknya ialah serangan jantung, angin ahmar, tekanan darah tinggi, sakit lutut dan sendi, penyakit gout, kolesterol tinggi, kerosakan hati serta penyakit metabolik seperti kencing manis.

Apabila berat bertambah, lemak di dalam badan terkumpul bukan sahaja di bawah kulit namun di bahagian luar organ seperti jantung dan usus yang dikenali sebagai lemak visceral. Lemak visceral menyebabkan risiko serangan jantung. Paras kolesterol yang tinggi di dalam darah boleh menyebabkan saluran darah ke jantung dan otak tersumbat yang akhirnya menyebabkan serangan jantung dan angin ahmar.

Lemak yang berlebihan juga boleh menyebabkan kerosakan hati (fatty liver) di mana hati dipenuhi dengan lemak dan liver cirrhosis iaitu hati yang keras dan tidak berfungsi. Hati merupakan organ kumuh bagi lemak. Apabila berat semakin bertambah, sendi-sendi utama seperti lutut tidak dapat menampung berat dan mula mengalami sakit lutut. Obesiti yang berpunca daripada pemakanan yang tidak seimbang dan tiada senaman menyebabkan hormon endokrin yang tidak stabil.

Selepas makan makanan berkarbohidrat tinggi, paras gula meningkat secara mendadak. Organ pankreas akan mengeluarkan hormon insulin dengan banyak untuk mengawal gula dalam darah. Hormon insulin berfungsi memindahkan gula yang beredar di dalam darah ke dalam sel. Namun demikian, jika paras insulin sentiasa tinggi, badan akan mengalami insulin resistance iaitu suatu keadaan di mana insulin tidak dapat berfungsi dengan baik untuk menyimpan gula seterusnya meningkatkan paras gula dalam darah dikenali sebagai diabetes atau penyakit kencing manis.

9 CARA CEGAH OBESITI

Elakkan makan berlebihan serta mengambil makanan bergula dan berkanji seperti nasi putih, roti, tepung dan mi. Pilihlah beras basmati, beras perang dan roti serat tinggi. Lebihkan protein seperti dada ayam, daging tanpa lemak dan ikan. Lebihkan sayur-sayuran dan buah-buahan seperti epal, oren, jambu batu, limau bali dan beri. Pilih makanan yang mengandungi glisemik indeks rendah.

Hadkan jumlah makanan di atas pinggan. Hadkan nasi sebesar genggaman bagi setiap hidangan. Hadkan protein sebesar tapak tangan bagi setiap hidangan. Selebihnya, penuhkan pinggan dengan sayur-sayuran.

Kurangkan penggunaan minyak sewaktu memasak. Gunakan kaedah stim, bakar atau rebus sewaktu memasak.

Tukarkanlah gula kepada stevia iaitu sejenis daun yang rasanya manis.

Bersenamlah selang sehari, lebih kurang 10-30 minit.

Berpuasa dua kali seminggu membantu mengekalkan berat badan dan merehatkan usus seketika.

Rehat yang cukup. Ibu yang bekerja perlu mendapatkan rehat dan tidur secukupnya. Tidur yang terganggu juga akan menyebabkan ketidakstabilan hormon dan obesiti.

Jika anda mengalami masalah obesiti, berjumpalah doktor bagi mendapatkan rawatan. Rawatan HCG jika digabungkan dengan pemakanan berkalori rendah dapat menurunkan berat badan. Namun, rawatan ini memerlukan pemantauan doktor. Rawatan HCG bukan sahaja dapat mengurangkan lemak visceral, malah dapat menstabilkan hormon dari kelenjar pituitari.

Rawatan laser membantu mengeluarkan lemak dari sel lemak tanpa mematikan sel lemak tersebut. Pemilihan rawatan laser yang betul seperti kaedah 'Zerona' amat penting kerana kaedah lain seperti sedut lemak boleh menjadikan pengimbangan hormon menjadi huru-hara dan lemak berkumpul di tempat yang tidak diingini.

Obagi Clenziderm : Skincare For Acne Prone

The CLENZIderm M.D.® system was conceived and brought to market for the treatment of acne and can be used on the face as well as the back or chest. The system contains 3 components: Cleanser, Pore Therapy, and Serum Gel. The system is designed to treat acne deep in the follicle, where the bacteria causing acne reside. The system components are used morning and night. Sun protection is not included in the system, so must be added separately.

You can control the pace of the treatment and comfort level by adjusting the amount of product applied and / or the frequency of application. As with any acne treatment, the purpose is to dry pimples, clean pores, and remove black heads and white heads. Use of the CLENZIderm M.D.® system will result in the skin feeling dry and irritated. It is normal to experience peeling of skin in the treated area. On the average, it may take 3 - 6 weeks to become accustom to use of the products and see a reduction in acne lesions.

Severe forms of acne may require medical evaluation and additional treatment. Use of CLENZIderm M.D.® is not a substitution for proper medical care and treatment. To reduce the risk of scarring associated with some forms of acne, it is recommended that you follow up with your medical provider if your acne is severe or leaving marks on your skin.


Treat Acne Where It Starts
The CLENZIderm M.D. Systems are the only prescription-strength acne treatment that contain a patented form of 5% benzoyl peroxide (BPO) to penetrate deep into the skin and treat acne where it starts.

The CLENZIderm M.D. Systems demonstrate greater penetration than other BPO-based treatments.
