| 中文摘要 | “肥胖(Obesity)”可能是當前最重的健康議題之一,且世界衛生組織(WHO)早在1988年就已經宣佈肥胖為世界性的流行。肥胖的盛行率在已開發國家中更達到了一個值得令人警惕的比率。本篇文章為綜論性的文章試著探討目前已發表的文章在已開發國家中影響過重(Overweight)和肥胖(Obesity)的因素。 結果顯示在人口學變項方面,男性比女性有較高的過重與肥胖盛行率,年齡愈高盛行率愈高直到男性的中年及女性的晚年,有較低的社會經濟地位的人(如:低教育程度,較需勞力的職業與較低的收入者)與住在較偏遠地區的人均有較高的危險機率成為過重或肥胖者。 關於大眾所認可的飲食與運動因素是否影響過重與肥胖。依當前的文章研究結果並不能完全證實這個關連性。某些研究認為較好的飲食習慣與較多的運動可以降低過重與肥胖,但是仍然有些研究結果不認同上述的理論。 |
| 英文摘要 | Obesity is perhaps one of the most important health issues of our time, and is regarded by WHO (1998) as an international epidemic. The prevalence of obesity is increasing worldwide at an alarming rate especially in developed countries. This article tries to review current literature to figure out the factors affecting overweight and obesity in the developed countries. It is found that in the demographic factors, men have a higher prevalence of overweight and/or obesity than women; ageing increases the prevalence of overweight and/or obesity until mid-age in men and older age in women; and people with lower socio-economic status (education, occupation, and income) and living in rural areas have a higher risk of being overweight and obese. In relation to the energy intake and energy expenditure, there are inconsistent results. Some research studies show that decreasing risks for overweight and obesity are lower intake levels (i.e. good dietary habits) and more energy expenditure (i.e. undertaking physical activity), but many researchers still doubt the effectiveness of this. |
