Addressing the problem of how weight is regulated, how obesity is
acquired, and how it is cured, Weight Regulation and Curing
Acquired Obesity provides the mathematical basis of control system
theory as applied to weight regulation. Unlike the majority of
weight control literature which focuses on biochemistry, this
innovative title discusses the biomechanical aspects of a dual
closed loop system which mechanically senses meal volume and
accumulated intraabdominal fat, where accurate sensation depends on
the mechanical strength of the anterior abdominal wall. Presents a
unified theory of weight regulation, explains the pathology of
acquired obesity, and offers therapy directed to correct the
underlying pathophysiology. Discusses surgical therapy directed to
re-establish the strength of the anterior abdominal wall, reverse
the pathology, and cure acquired obesity. Contains a chapter on
future animal and human studies to support the neuromechanical
hypothesis.
