简要总结
Over one in four adults living in the UK is living with obesity. Obesity is associated with health complications including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and depression. The current NHS treatment for obesity includes attending a specialist hospital weight management service called 'Tier 3' where patients receive help from healthcare professionals such as doctors, dieticians and psychologists. It is known that health conditions associated with obesity improve or reverse if a person with obesity loses five per cent or more of their body weight. On average, currently available Tier 3 programmes achieve less weight loss than this. In our specialist obesity clinic at the Imperial Weight Centre, we (the study research team) have designed a new weight loss programme called Imperial Satiety Protocol (or I-SatPro for short). I-SatPro comprises dietary advice including eating a low carbohydrate (low glycaemic index) diet, eating protein for the satiating effects, eating healthy fats and abstaining from high sugar and/or processed foods which can drive over-eating. Participants will be advised to eat according to subjective feelings of hunger and fullness, rather than eating according to a defined calorie restriction. Similar to other Tier 3 Programmes, I-SatPro also contains locally devised content related to healthy eating, for example fibre intake, the timing of eating, lifestyle change such as exercise, self-care such as advice on sleep and behavioural change strategies.
详细描述
The purpose of this feasibility/pilot study is to check whether:
- Our patients like I-SatPro
- Whether our patients want to follow I-SatPro
- Check whether our patients following I-SatPro achieve improvements in their health including: weight loss, changes in blood pressure, changes in diabetes control, changes in blood lipids 'cholesterol', changes in their eating patterns and relationship with food, changes in their wellbeing
