Obesity: food intake

Alexandra Kazaks et al. Prim Care. 2003 Jun.

Abstract

This article discusses some of the changes in our food environment that have encouraged overeating and some research that underlies successful weight loss and maintenance of weight loss. The discussion of these topics will help in the guidance of patients to develop personalized eating plans and reduce energy intake, in part by recognizing the contributions of fat, concentrated carbohydrates, and large portion sizes.
