Abstract

U pretilih osoba postoji velik rizik za nastanak hiperlipoproteinemije, dijabetesa, hipertenzije, koronarne srčane bolesti i degenerativnih bolesti. Štetni utjecaji prekomjerne tjelesne mase i pretilosti na zdravlje brojni su i različiti. Veća je opasnost od prerane smrti, uz niz posljedica koje izravno utječu na kakvoću života. Čimbenici rizika za razvoj bolesti srca su visoke koncentracije ukupnog i LDL kolesterola, a snižena koncentracija HDL kolesterola, povišena koncentracija triglicerida, glukoze, povišen arterijski krvni tlak, pušenje te neaktivni način života. Redovita tjelovježba može smanjiti i odgoditi obolijevanje od navedenih bolesti. Masno tkivo pored uloge skladištenja energije ima i brojne endokrine i imunološke funkcije. Ono može utjecati na razvoj inzulinske neosjetljivosti, nastanak metaboličkog sindroma, a lučenjem adipokina, čimbenika stvorenih u masnim stanicama, doprinosi upalnim procesima, pa se i iz tog razloga pretilost smatra kroničnom upalnom bolešću. Iako je danas dobro poznato nekoliko osnovnih grupa terapijskih postupaka u liječenju pretilosti, temeljnim pristupom i dalje se podrazumijeva promjena načina života, i to tjelovježbom i redukcijskim dijetama.

Abstract (english)

Obese persons are at a high risk to develop hyperlipoproteinemia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, coronary disease, and degenerative diseases. Excessive body mass and obesity have numerous and diverse adverse effects on health. Along with many consequences directly influencing the quality of life, there is an increased risk of premature death. The risk factors for cardiac disease include elevated concentration of total and LDL cholesterol, a decreased concentration of HDL cholesterol, increased concentration of triglycerides and blood glucose, elevated arterial blood pressure, cigarette smoking and inadequate physical activity. Disease development can be prevented and delayed by regular physical activity. Apart from being energy storage, fat tissue also has numerous endocrine and immune functions. Fat tissue can induce insulin resistance, development of metabolic syndrome and by secreting adipokines directly contribute to inflammatory processes which make obesity a chronic inflammatory disease. Even although here are several therapeutic approaches to the obesity problem, life style changes together with energy restrictive diets remain the basic therapeutic approach.
