Obesity:
Adolescent obesity, in addition to bad eating habits, such as eating fatty foods, chocolates, sugary drinks, candy, chips, etc. can also be related to genetic factors. The use of appetite suppressants does not have much effect on reducing obesity, but it can lead to unpleasant side effects.
Treatment of obesity should include a diet plan combined with behavioral changes. For example, if you have a habit of eating snacks while watching TV or using a computer, you should change this habit as much as possible by doing regular exercise activities such as hiking, biking and swimming, so that you keep healthy while achieving an ideal weight.
Remember that starting dieting without consulting a nutritionist, or skipping meals can have negative effects on your physical and mental health.
Anorexia nervosa:
Unfortunately, some girls during puberty have a distorted body image combined with a strong motivation to lose weight that affects their appetite and results in their refusal to eat.
The treatment of this disease requires consulting with specialists. Keep in mind that having a healthy and diverse diet is essential to meet the needs of the puberty years.
Nervous overeating:
It is a common eating disorder. People with this disorder eat more often than usual and feel uncomfortable after each overeating and try to make up for it with a strict diet, deliberately vomiting or taking laxatives. These people also need help with counseling, psychotherapy, and nutrition education.
