Abstract

The invention relates to medicine, in particular to treating obesity of persons having an excessive weight by means of a diet therapy. The inventive method for reducing and steadily maintaining a human body mass by means of the diet therapy consists in limiting the food consumption of a person by calculating, wherein the planned daily modification of the human body mass, which is determined by dividing the total planned reduction of the body mass in grams by a number of days for weight loss is subtracted from the optimal daily requirement in food products adjusted to a person metabolism balance. Said daily requirement in food products adjusted to a person metabolism balance is determined in Light units by means of the following formula: Lopt =N x P(1.15-0.005 x F) x D, wherein N is an optimisation coefficient, P is a person body mass (kg), F is a person's age (year) and D is a dietoresistance coefficient. The selection of a required number and list of consumable food products are determined by recounting the total energetic value of products with the aid of coefficients.

Description

The way to reduce and maintain a person’s body weight in a stable state through diet therapy

The invention relates to medicine, in particular for the treatment of obesity using the diet of individuals suffering from excess body weight.

A known method of correcting a person’s body weight is described in the patent of the Russian Federation Zh.174835 published October 20, 2001, index MPK7 A61K31 / 00; A23L1 / 29; A61PZ / 04. The method includes a diet of unloading and unloading nutritional regimes, which alternate so that in one week there are five unloading and two non-unloading days with a total duration of treatment for 12 weeks. At the same time, meals on a fasting day are carried out using the Doctor Slim nutrient mixture, which is prescribed in one portion - 15 g of the mixture dissolved in 200 ml of warm water, instead of breakfast, lunch, before dinner and at night, while meals are built for dinner of low-fat products, the total fat content of which does not exceed 8-10 g, additionally during breakfast and lunch, vegetables, except potatoes, in the amount of 400 g in raw or cooked form are allowed. On a non-busy day, the patient eats regular foods without increasing the consumption of flour and sweet foods and with a decrease in daily fat intake to 35-40 g and using the Doctor-Slim mixture in one portion twice a day before lunch and dinner. Common essential features are consumption restriction quantitative and qualitative composition of food in order to correct the body weight of a person.

The disadvantages of this method is the lack of visibility and accuracy of taking into account the necessary restrictions in the qualitative and quantitative composition of food, as well as the inability to turn diet into a norm of food consumption.

The closest method to the present invention is described in the patent of the Russian Federation JСs2134115 published on 08/10/1999, class IPC 6 A61K35 / 00, A23L1 / 29, a method of maintaining body weight in a stable state by diet therapy, in which a time interval between meals of 3 to 4 is maintained h, use at a time no more than 4 types of products in an amount of 4 - 7 g per 1 kg of body weight, with a daily intake of 1 kg of body weight of salt no more than 140 mg and with a normal energy load, consumption of carbohydrates no more than 5.8 g, of which easily digestible no more than 1.16 g, fat no more than 1.29 g, of which vegetable no more than 0.39 g, and with an intense energy load of carbohydrates no more than 7.9 g, of which easily digestible no more than 1, 58 g, fats no more than 2.15 g, of which vegetable no more than 0.65 g, while consuming water in an amount of 20 - 40 ml / kg body weight per day in the mode of slow administration after at least 30 minutes after eating and stopping at least re, 30 minutes before the next dose. In the summer, they consume salt, preferably in an amount of not more than 110 mg per 1 kg of body weight and water, preferably in an amount of 35-40 ml per 1 kg of body weight. In the winter-spring period, multivitamins are additionally taken in medium maintenance doses. Common essential features are the reduction and maintenance of a person’s body weight in a stable state through diet therapy, which consists in limiting the quantitative and qualitative composition of the daily intake of food and water.

The disadvantages of this method is the lack of visibility and accuracy of taking into account the necessary restrictions in the qualitative and quantitative composition of food, as well as the inability to turn diet by a known method in the norm of consumption of food products, not psychologically rejected.

The aim of the presented method is to create for people suffering from excessive overeating, greater visibility and accuracy in determining the necessary restrictions on food consumption, taking into account the energy consumption of the body, energy consumption, taking into account absorption in the intestine, the influence of the plastic component on the metabolic rate, the influence of the informational component of food on the speed of their own metabolism, the influence of the glycemic index and hyperinsulinism, the evolution of metabolism and the time factor, as well as the creation of the ability to develop persistent healthy emotional reactions to food.

The most common weight correction method worldwide is based on the calculation of kilocalories. It is believed that 1 g of proteins and 1 g of carbohydrates, when burned, emit 4.2 kcal / g, and fats, respectively, 9.3 kcal / g. On this basis, knowing the content of these substances in food, it becomes possible to evaluate food products in terms of the energy contained in them. The followers of these diets adhere to the installation of the choice of lower-energy foods. But those who adhere to this type of dietary correction of their weight cannot clearly correlate the choice of food and its direct effect on their weight.

Not everyone understands the relationship between kilocalories of food and their effects on weight. This theory and practice refers to the body as a simple biological furnace, where normal combustion processes occur with the release of a certain amount of energy. Not taken into account absorption factors in the intestine, the effect of certain products on the metabolic rate and, as a result, on energy consumption. The obvious fact of adaptation to reduced energy consumption is denied. Numerous information from the theory of civilization about the ability of the human body to reduce the exchange rate for survival in conditions of hunger or in a state approaching it is ignored. That is, it is ignored that when the energy consumption tends to zero, the human body tends to reduce energy consumption. A hypocaloric diet does not take into account the factor of mutual influence of food products. Due to the decrease in the rate of metabolism, when leaving the diet, internal relationships are not taken into account, the energy of the food is its own weight, so when you return to the previous forms of nutrition, the weight increases more intensively and after a time exceeds the initial one. Thus, real hypocaloric diets contribute to the weight gain of the inhabitants of planet Earth.

The methods of nutritional correction that are widespread in the world take into account the predominant role of carbohydrates in the formation of excess body weight and justifiably motivate the need for their reduction in the human diet, but do not take into account the psychology of dieters in terms of the ratio of glycemic index and their own body weight. The lack of clarity with a generally progressive approach also often leads to failures of known methods. The secret of the glycemic index and its effect on weight are not revealed to the user. It is clear to the dieter that the higher the glycemic index, the worse for it, but how and by how much 100 is worse than 50 and how the weight will change if you eat 2 times more product with an index of 50 remains a mystery. The mystery behind the seven seals remains for the experts to completely deny the authors the law of conservation of energy and the second rule of thermodynamics. Temporary weight loss when using these methods is due to the exclusion of carbohydrates, especially refined sugars, which, however, require traditional methods of nutritional weight correction. The inconsistency of food and weight among users, as before, remains unchanged in the rational and emotional components of the motivation for eating behavior, which gives rise to relapses and disappointments. In creating a method of weight loss, the following prerequisites are taken into account:

1) The energy consumption of the body and its own weight;

2) Energy consumption and the effect of absorption in the intestine on it;

3) The effect of the plastic component (food substance) on the metabolic rate; 4) The influence of the informational component of food on the rate of corresponding exchange; 5) The effect of the glycemic index (utilization of carbohydrates and hyperinsulinism);

6) The evolution of metabolism and the time factor of food intake;

7) Psychological comprehensibility and acceptance by the patient of the final figures “Laytes” (g / day); 8) The possibilities of self-regulation in food motivation.

In the developed method of weight loss and its maintenance in optimal values by diet therapy, which consists in limiting the quantitative and qualitative composition of daily food intake, in which all products are evaluated in a new system of units that directly indicate the effect of the product on the person’s own weight, using this technique to control weight, and the final number in light, measured in grams of change or the balance of a person’s body weight per day, reflects all currently known food characteristics, namely: energy value in kcal, ratio of energy consumption and weight, absorption in the intestines and adsorbing properties of certain types of food, the effect of food on the metabolic rate (catabolism), the effect of food on the rate of anabolism of adipose tissue (glycemic index) and hyperinsulinism. The informational aspect of food is reflected in increasing or decreasing coefficients when converting kcal to body weight.

The essential features of the presented invention is the method of limiting the quantitative and qualitative composition of the daily intake of food and water, in which the human consumption of food is limited, taking into account the calculation in which the planned daily allowance is subtracted from the optimal daily requirement for food metabolism. the change in human body mass, which is determined by dividing the planned total decrease in body weight in grams by the number of days for which they plan to lose weight, and the optimal daily human need for food in food units in the Light units, adjusted to the balance of human metabolism, is determined by the formula

L opt = N x P x (l Д5 - 0.005 x F) x D where: L opt - daily optimal, reduced to the balance of human metabolism, the need for food, Light (g / day);

N is the optimization coefficient, which is 5 for women and 7 for men; P is the mass of a person, kg;

F- age of the person, year

D is the coefficient of diet resistance, taking into account the addiction (adaptation with the development of diet resistance) of a person to diet, with the number of diet sessions up to 5, the coefficient D = I, and more than 5, the coefficient D = 0.7-0.95, and the selection of the required quantity and menu of consumed food products is determined by recalculating the total energy value of products using coefficients that take into account the body’s energy consumption, energy consumption taking into account intestinal absorption, the influence of the plastic component on the metabolic rate, the influence of the food information component on the rate of own metabolism, the effect of glycemic index and hyperinsulinism, metabolic evolution and time factor, and provide quantitative information about food products, in the form reduced to assessing the ability of their influence on changes in human mass in units of "Light", which is determined by the formula

L n = E _P p _unit. x 0.238 x Ic ₁ xk ₂ x Ic ₃ ... x k _n

where: Ln - reduced to assessing the ability to influence a person’s weight change, the value of food products, Light (g / day); E _p r _od. - total energy value of products, kcal;

0.238 - the main conversion factor of energy value; k _! -k _n - correction factors that take into account the properties of various products that affect the change in human body mass The main correction factors that take into account the properties of products that affect the change in human body mass are: for foods rich in vitamins and minerals - 0.9; for foods high in protein — 0.8; for foods high in fiber -0.9; for products with a high content of refined carbohydrates -1.2; for canned or chemically prepared products - 1.2; for fresh, unprocessed chemical products - 0.9. The essential distinguishing features in all cases is that human consumption of food is limited, taking into account a calculation in which the planned daily change in human body weight, which is determined by dividing the planned total, is subtracted from the optimal daily balance of food needs of a person decrease in body weight in grams by the number of days for which they plan to lose weight, and the optimal daily requirement of a person for food products in units of “Light” reduced to the balance of human metabolism is determined by the formula

L opt = N x P x (l, 15 - 0.005 x F) x D

where: L opt - daily optimal, reduced to the balance of human metabolism, the need for food, Light (g / day);

N is the optimization coefficient, which is 5 for women and 7 for men;

P is the mass of a person, kg;

F- age of the person, year

D is the coefficient of diet resistance, taking into account the addiction (adaptation with the development of diet resistance) of a person to diet, with the number of diet sessions up to 5, the coefficient is D = I, and more than 5, the coefficient is D = 0.7-0.95, and the selection of the required quantity and menu of consumed food products is determined by recalculating the total energy value of products using coefficients that take into account the body’s energy consumption, energy consumption taking into account intestinal absorption, the influence of the plastic component on the metabolic rate, the influence of the informational component of food on the rate of its own metabolism, the effect of the glycemic index and hyperinsulinism, the evolution of metabolism and the time factor, and provide quantitative information about food products, in the form of a reduction to the ability of their influence on a person’s weight change in units of “Light”, which is determined by the formula

L n ⁼ E prod. x 0.238 x kj x k ₂ x k ₃ ... x k _n

where: Ln - reduced to, the assessment of the ability to influence the change in human mass the value of food products, Light (g / day); E _prod. - total energy value of products, kcal;

0.238 - the main conversion factor of energy value; ki -k _n - correction factors taking into account the properties of various products that affect the change in human body mass

Significant distinguishing features in some cases is that the main correction factors that take into account the properties of products that affect the change in human body weight are: for products rich in vitamins and minerals - 0.9; for foods high in protein — 0.8; for foods high in fiber -0.9; for products with a high content of refined carbohydrates — 1.2; for canned or chemically prepared products - 1.2; for fresh, unprocessed chemical products - 0.9.

A dietary method has been created for people suffering from excessive overeating, with great clarity in determining the qualitative and quantitative composition of food products, taking into account the necessary restrictions on the consumption of various food products, taking into account the energy consumption of the body, energy consumption, taking into account absorption in the intestine, the effect of the plastic component on the metabolic rate, the influence of the informational component of food on the rate of own metabolism, the influence of the glycemic index and hyperinsulinism, the evolution of metabolism and the time factor. Thus, it is taken into account that when eating with the predominant use of proteins, foods rich in fiber, minerals, vitamins, fresh, chemically untreated, the final gain in the amount of food acceptable for consumption is 20-30% in comparison with traditional diets with a calorie count, which is important psychologically for food lovers, and even more important for patients with metabolic disorders who were previously required severely limit yourself. The acquisition of large degrees of freedom also has a psycho-pedagogical component that teaches the patient the right strategic choices in his addictions and nutrition systems. In addition to the metabolic gain, the psychological aspect of the absence of prohibitions in nutrition is also involved, the difference in the effect of a particular product on the weight of one’s own body is absolutely clear and deep, which makes an excellent base for maintaining one’s own shape.

The resulting digits for calculating the menu in Light units are psychologically “approaching their own bodies” so much that this in itself changes the food settings. The Traffic Light system presented in the application is used as an eidetic food perception system, where there are three food consumption zones: green, yellow, red. A woman of ordinary health, a middle-aged woman, and a normal lifestyle, taking into account her personal experience, in order to keep her weight unchanged, she needs to consume 350-450 light foods (yellow) per day, to lose weight - 250-350 light (green zone), increase weight - more than 400 light. A specific figure is determined by the formulas presented. The first week it is recommended to select the menu within the yellow zone, using the number of light that corresponds to the level of your own metabolism, for example 400 light. If the body weight remains the same, then this figure is the adjusted optimal reduced daily requirement and a specific diet is determined. For example, if you need to lose weight by 100 grams per day, then, accordingly, nutrition is carried out at the level of 300 light. If you need to dump 150 grams per day, then accordingly - 250 light. Lights, therefore, indicate grams per day of a change in a person’s body weight when eating certain amounts of different foods that make up the daily diet. Products evaluated in this way, in the eidetic perception of the user, are automatically evaluated from the standpoint of their own weight. The user begins not only to easily understand, but also to feel the properties of food. The inclusion of such a material perception makes it much easier, in comparison with traditional diets, to switch to a new type of nutrition, which it absorbed without denying the basic basic laws of nature and knowledge of metabolic laws, and the laws of attitudes and behavior motivation. The user of the Traffic Light system becomes the true owner of his metabolic situation, both at the stage of weight loss and at the stage of maintaining stable weight.

Eating while maintaining a balance corresponding to weight stabilization, the user also removes reactions of perplexity about "weight gain not because of what." It is absolutely clear that the gained kilogram of body weight per week corresponded to overeating per day for (1000: 7 = 143 light (g / day). This allows you to take responsibility, not complain about external factors. Taking responsibility allows you to structure your own behavior based on out of responsibility.

In addition to a new approach to the structure of food and the nutrition system, during weight loss, you should take care of the evolution of metabolism, taking care of its speed with daily optimal eating behavior. Therefore, users of the "Traffic Light" system are instructed to take care of the metabolic rate by performing: a varied diet; determined by the formulas of the volume of food; 4 meals a day; use of 60% food metabolism stimulants (proteins, vitamins, fiber, minerals); normal water-salt regimen; normal physical activity.

It is forbidden to do anything that can reduce the metabolic rate through strict prohibitions on: fasting; "Downloads"; monotony of nutrition; protein exclusion; single meals; predominantly carbohydrate nutrition; zigzags in food; take laxatives and diuretics, enema and "clean the intestines"; completely exclude anything familiar from the diet. An example of a specific implementation of the method:

A woman with a body weight of 90 kg at the age of 30 determines the optimal daily allowance for the balance of human metabolism, the need according to the formula specified in paragraph 1 of the claims, receives a result of 450 light. He selects, according to the definition formula given, to assess the ability of their influence on changing a person’s weight, the value of food products indicated in paragraph 1 of the claims, to facilitate using the tables developed by the author, which are not presented in this application, the daily ration of food products. So, for example, when choosing the right menu and the amount of food consumed, for example chips, you need to multiply the energy value of 100 g of product (380 kcal) by the main conversion factor - 0.238, multiply by 1.2, multiply by 1.2 (refined sugars and chemically processed), we get the final figure of the present value of 130 light. The present value of 100 g of peeled rice is - 330 x 0.238 x 1.2 x 0.9 x 1.2 = 101.8 litas, and the present value of brown rice is 180 x 0.238 x 0.9 x 0.9 x 0, 9 = 31.2 light, the present value of 100 g of fresh boiled beef is 110 x 0.238 x 0.8 x 0.9 = 18.8 light. It feeds on the level of 450 light for three days, with a constant weight of its body, takes 450 light for a specified optimal reduced daily requirement and determines the desired weight loss regime, for example, lose weight by 10 kg in 100 days, that is, lose 100 grams per day. He selects the daily ration according to the formula specified in paragraph 1, he eats the necessary time at the level of 350 light. After reaching the desired body weight, the woman first switches to a diet of 370 light, and then on the fourth or fifth day to the optimal daily requirement brought to the balance of metabolism, taking into account the achieved body weight of 80 kg, amounting to 400 light.

Over the past 2 years, about 800 people who successfully lost weight and without psychological problems maintain the achieved result have used the Traffic Light system.
