Malaysians are fattest in South East Asia

HULU TERENGGANU: Malaysians are the fattest in Southeast Asia and the Health Ministry is determined to lose that “honour”.

Deputy Health Minister Datuk Rosnah Abdul Rashid said Malaysia had the highest number of obese citizens in the region.

“This is very worrying as the country is also ranked sixth among Asian countries,” she said after launching the Cakna Kesihatan programme at Kampung Pasir Nering here yesterday.

“One of the main contributors is our inactive lifestyle, whereby 43.7% of those above 18 years of age are not exercising.”

Rosnah said her ministry had set a target to reduce 30% of the weight for those classified as obese nationwide.

“We'll do this through efforts such as introducing a calorie guideline in schools as well as instilling healthy lifestyle habits among university students.

“Studies conducted have revealed obesity is common among urban people, given the high number of fast food outlets located in towns and cities.

“We are also organising various health checkups through the respective health departments nationwide to ensure that the people can gauge their health levels,” she said.

Rosnah said 60% of deaths worldwide were due to non-communicable disease and obesity was a type of NCD.

“Such deaths can be prevented if only people would take charge of their lives,” she said.

“It is not hard to exercise, thus the ministry has introduced the 10,000 steps a day programme.”

Why is BMR so important?

There are various obvious reasons why a person gains weight, one thing is for sure it does not happen overnight. Habits, genes, illness, medicine, stress and emotions would all be the obvious reasons.

Although you many not be able to control all these factors, you can be aware of your eating and activity habits. And by changing these present habits, you will certainly imrpove your fat loss and ultimately your health.

Basal metabolism or BMR is the amount of energy required to maintain the body's vital processes, such as heartbeat, respiration and maintenance of body temperature, while the body is at rest. This BMR varies between different people. Theoratically if a person has a high BMR, the more calories will be burnt to provide energy rather than kept as storage in your fat cells.

BMR is higher in children, sports people, young adults and usually lower in older people as they tend to slow down. Muscles require more energy than fat, and since males have more muscle, their BMR is higher than females.

Be aware than any diet that invloves calorie reduction or meal replacements, will usually lower your BMR and once you are off this program, and begin eating again, you will most certainly pile up more fat at an even faster rate, as your BMR is now even lower than before.

Body mass index or BMI was one of the ways to tell if you are healthy or overweight. But your weight is made up of 4 key components:-
a) Bone
b) Muscle
c) Water
d) Fat

You may have noticed that bodybuilders are heavy but they have thin waists. And some really thin people have dense bones and may weigh heavy.

For the average person, our only concern is the inches and not the weight as you buy clothes not based on your weight but the circumference!. So forget the BMI and focus on the BMR.
