Many myths and presumptions about obesity lack scientific support, which can lead to poor public health decisions and misallocation of resources.
The study reviewed internet sources and scientific literature to classify obesity-related myths, presumptions, and facts, focusing on those with practical health implications.
Researchers identified specific myths, presumptions, and evidence-backed facts related to energy balance, weight loss goals, dietary habits, and the environment to improve policy and clinical approaches.]

Obezite “irade eksikliği” sorunu değildir. Sosyoekonomik faktörler başta olmak üzere birçok sebebi vardır ve insanlara uzmanı olmadığınız bu alanda “şu saatten sonra yeme, IF dene, ketojenik beslen, ekmeği kes” gibi öneriler vermeyi bırakmalısınız. Acil.

@PJSubias A parte del criterio para el Dx de obesidad. Este tipo de pasquines comerciales abundan en la idea de un "ideal" que no tiene nada que ver con la salud. La menor mortalidad se asocia con sobrepeso, y obesidad grado 1 no se observa aumento de mortalidad https://t.co/NtHFJSfXLI

@YettieAlwaqie @LBS_NY @davidbelle_ @paracurve The link works, is active and is not not behind a paywall. The piece can also be accessed by typing in in "Myths, Presumptions, and Facts about Obesity" on google. There, the link to the New England Journal of Medicine study can found at the top of the page. It's worth reading.

@ThatRascalRosie I agree with you that people shouldn't go on crash diets or look for quick fixes.
But gradual diets don't work any better, in the long run.

@ferg2112 @ashjamesphysio Charlotte it's a bit of a myth that rates of weightloss have to be sustainable.
"Myth number 3: Large, rapid weight loss is associated with poorer long-term weight-loss outcomes, as compared with slow, gradual weight loss."
