THERAPEUTIC NUTRITION: APPROACHES TO USE FOR THE PURPOSE OF WEIGHT CORRECTION
Abstract
Based on a review of the literature, the article describes the history of the emergence of the basic concepts of modern dietetics, such as calories, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and also determines their meaning and significance in nutrition for the human body. The review provides formulas and examples of calculating the correct ratio of nutrients depending on the lifestyle of each person for the purpose of weight correction, including for patients with metabolic syndrome. The authors believes that when losing weight, you need to focus not only on reducing overall calorie consumption, but also take into account the body’s need for calories, the ratio of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, as well as physical activity. The article discusses ways to safely correct weight, taking into account the body’s needs for calories and macronutrients, with an emphasis on intermittent fasting during the holy month of Ramadan as a traditional way to cleanse the body, including for safe weight loss. In conclusion, the author concludes that weight loss in obese individuals has a beneficial effect on the health and quality of life not only of gastroenterological patients, but also of the rest of the patient population. However, we must remember that for safe weight loss it is necessary to very carefully understand each person who is overweight (obese), learn about his eating habits, determine the level of basal metabolism and physical activity and, based on this, calculate the most optimal level of calories, physical activity and method weight correction for each individual.
