Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. What should I do about simple obesity?Doctor's answer:
Simple obesity without hormonal reasons only requires regular exercise to lose weight and control body weight. In terms of activity choices, it is advisable to make full use of aerobic and anaerobic exercises, with anaerobic exercises as the foundation and aerobic exercises as the complement. Anaerobic exercises primarily enhance muscle mass and reduce the basal metabolic rate, while aerobic exercises can effectively reduce body fat content. The duration of anaerobic exercises is typically between 1 to 2 hours, while the duration of aerobic exercises is usually between 20 to 40 minutes.
