简要总结
The goal of this pragmatic trial is to test the benefit of using dietary advice and health coaching for physical activities for obese and overweight in lowering body weight and making them lead a healthy lifestyle. The advice will be provided by an expert dietician and health coach at the primary health care. The main questions it aims to answer are:
To what extent does the obesity pathway among overweight and obese adults implemented at primary health care Clinics work well in lowering weight? To what extent do the use of dietary advice and coaching for physical activities for obese and overweight implemented at primary health care Clinics work well in achieving a positive lifestyle change? Participants will be asked to participate in the obesity pathway at primary care centres. An expert dietician and health coach will be used to provide a schedule for dietary control and coaching for physical activities.
Researchers will compare the change in body weight and lifestyle among overweight and obese adults in the intervention versus the control group at the primary care centre.
Adopting a healthy lifestyle, standard weight, healthy dietary habits, plus wise efforts to lowering your body weight is valuable. These need advice from an expert dietician and health coach to prevent the risk of contracting diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.
详细描述
Leadership and a multisectoral approach are the cornerstones in tackling the prevention of non-communicable diseases in Saudi Arabia. A focus should be on physical inactivity, tobacco, and unhealthy diet using effective and cost-effective interventions.
The last updated clinical practice guideline for the non-pharmacological management of overweight and obese Saudi adults strongly suggests lifestyle intervention rather than usual care alone, individualized counselling interventions rather than a generic educational pamphlet, physical activity rather than no physical activity, and physical activity in addition to diet rather than diet alone.
Many countries had implemented taxes on unprocessed sugar or sugar-added foods for reducing their consumption and preventing obesity and other adverse health events. however, no concrete evidence of the effectiveness of the intervention on the ground.
Mobile intervention technologies like pedometers or accelerometers with displays, activity trackers, smartphones, or tablets have a great effect in supporting sustainable health behaviour, increasing physical activity, and preventing the risk of chronic disease.
