节食会导致一些肥胖儿童的不良饮食习惯

来自纽约路透社的健康新闻：一项小规模的研究表明，饮食可能会导致一些肥胖儿童在体重和饮食方面的不健康倾向。研究人员发现，一些肥胖的青少年尝试节食，并对减肥产生偏见和贪婪的习惯。国际饮食障碍上发现的这些发现表明，饮食会导致一些超重儿童的火灾。研究对象包括80名10至16岁的肥胖儿童，主要询问他们的饮食史和他们对减肥和饮食的态度。一半的孩子承认他们有吃得太多或贪婪的习惯，也就是说，过度的饮食缺乏控制。与饮食前相比，这些饮食障碍主要表现在这些孩子尝试饮食后。但对于这些有饮食史的孩子来说，他们对体重和饮食有偏见，而且很容易出现饮食障碍。一般来说，对于已经节食的贪婪的人来说，他们经常在有贪婪的习惯之前节食。比利时根特大学CarolineBraet医生认为，对于一些肥胖儿童来说，在超重、饮食和不健康饮食的概念之间有错误的方式。父母节食超重的孩子可能是一件有害的事情。但她强调，这并不意味着肥胖的孩子可以随意吃喝。解决儿童肥胖问题的最佳关键是定期均衡饮食，少吃快餐，定期锻炼，比严格饮食要好。解决这个问题的目的是通过健康的饮食来稳定肥胖儿童的体重。DietsmayspurunhealthyeatinginsomeobesekidsReutersHealthWednesday,December6,2006ByAmyNortonNEWYORK(ReutersHealth)-Forsomeobesechildren,dietingmaysetoffanunhealthypreoccupationwithweightandeating,asmallstudysuggests.Researchersfoundthatamongobeseadolescents,someofthosewhohadtrieddietingeventuallydevelopedapreoccupationwithweightlossandahabitofbinge-eating.Thefindings,publishedintheInternationalJournalofEatingDisorders,suggestthatforsomeheychildren,dietingcanbackfire.Thestudyincluded80obesechildrenbetweentheagesof10and16whowereinterviewedabouttheirhistoryofdietingandattitudestowardweightlossandeating.Halfofthechildrensaidtheyhadahabitofovereatingorbingeing,whichreferstoovereatingwithafeelingofbeingoutofcontrol.Overall,childrenwithsuch"disorderedeating"problemswerenomorelikelytohetrieddietingthantheirpeerswere.However,forthosewhodidheahistoryofdietattempts,thedietingsometimesledtoapreoccupationwithweightandeating--apotentialprecursortoeatingdisorders.Indeed,amongbinge-eaterswhohaddieted,thedietingtypicallycamebeforethebinge-eatingproblem.Thissuggeststhatforsomechildren,there'sa"problematicpathway"fromweightproblemstodietingtounhealthyattitudesaboutfoodandweight,accordingtostudyco-authorDr.CarolineBraetofGhentUniversityinBelgium."Parentscandoharmfulthingsbyputtingtheiroverweightchildrenonadiet,"BraettoldReutersHealth.However,thatdoesn'tmeanthealternativeistoletobesechildreneatwhatevertheywant,shestressed.It'sbettertoaddresschildren'sweightproblemswithregular,balancedmeals,limitsonsnackingandregularphysicalactivity,accordingtoBraet.Ratherthantryingtogetkidstoshedpoundswitharestrictivediet,sheexplained,thegoalshouldbetostabilizetheirweightwithhealthyeating.SOURCE:InternationalJournalofEatingDisorders,December2006._42222.html
