Q

2 ways to measure the rate of heat production

A
  1. Direct Calorimetry
    - water at a constant temperature
    - increase=energy production
  2. Indirect Calorimetry
    - 02 uptake=energy expenditure
    - in mg/O2/kg min (VO2)

Q

what percentage of US adults were obese in 2015

19
Q

what percentage of a persons weight is determined by genetics

20
Q

what occurs when a person has 2 copies of the FTO gene

A

70% chance that they will have increased weight

21
Q

what occurs when a person has 1 copy of FTO and 1 copy of FTO2

A

30% chance of increased weight

22
Q

what occurs when a person has 2 copies of FTO2

A

0-10%chance of increased weight

23
Q

what race burns about 100 calories less per day

A

African Americans

24
Q

what is the function of the Ob gene when it functions properly

A
  1. promotes formation of hormone-like leptin
  2. exercise and metabolism control (hypothalamus)
  3. Leptin helps to regulate fat stores
25
what occurs when the Ob gene becomes mutated
1. there is an absence of leptin which causes continual hunger and marked obesity 2. abnormal response to leptin - hunger cues - energy expenditure
26
what is the nurture category for weight
1. active or inactive time 2. income levle 3. education level 4. parent education level 5. stress levels: higher cortisol 6. eating habits
27
what happens during the plateau stage of weight loss
the person stops achieving weight loss because their RMR decreases since they have lost weight
28
what is the set point theory
set point theory states that the hypothalamus has a predetermined weight that and individual should be and if they decrease their weight it automatically makes them hungrier and vice versa if they gain weight
29
ways to treat obesity
1. make eating a ritual 2. use smaller dishes 3. eat slowly 4. follow a meal plan 5. make smart choices about fat 6. physical activity 7. well balanced and less of it
30
Characteristics of Anorexia Nervosa
1. weight is below 85% of normal body weight 2. restriction of diet 3. body image issues 4. menstrual abnormalities: missed period for 3 months
31
Bulimia characteristics
1. binge eating: 2 times per day for 3 months 2. Purging: 2 times per day for 3 months 3. no restricted intake 4. body image issues 5. fear of being fat 6. no abnormal body weight or menstrual abnormalities
32
what are the signs for Bulimia
1. dry brittle hair 2. Russell's signs on knuckles 3. poor dental health
33
Binge eating characteristics
1. can't stop eating 2. body image 3. 2 times per day for 3 months 4. low self esteem 5. don't purge 6. no menstrual abnormalities
34
define amenorrhea
3 missed periods or haven't menstruated by age 15
35
how to identify adonis complex
frequent washings checking appearance baggy or tight clothing excessive exercise
36
what is required on nutrition labels
1. calories 2. total fats 3. total carbs 4. fiber 5. cholesterol 6. sodium
37
What are Daily values for: 1. Total Fat 2. Saturated fat 3. Cholesterol 4. Total carb 5. fiber 6. sodium 7. protein
1. fat: 65g 2. saturated fat: 20 g 3. cholesterol: 300 mg 4. total carb: 300 g 5. fiber: 25 grams 6. sodium 2400 mg 7. protein: 50 grams
38
