2 new weight-loss drugs won't reverse US obesity crisis ‎ Health Articles | July 22 Cheap Michael Dickson Jersey , 2012
?The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of two new weight-loss drugs within the past month -- the first such medications in 13 years -- won't be a panacea for America's obesity epidemic, health professionals say.


And as the FDA's drug regulators reiterated when approving the two drugs, Qysmia and Belviq, no weight-loss medication should be used without also making lifestyle changes to facilitate weight loss.


"The bottom line is there's no such thing as a magic pill and I hope that individuals do not think by taking this pill that it will ensure long-term weight loss," said Keri Gans, a registered dietitian in New York City. "We need to be reminded that diet and exercise are still critical."


Qysmia Cheap Will Dissly Jersey , formerly called Qnexa, was approved on Tuesday and is a combination of the weight-loss drug phentermine (brand name Adipex-P, among others) and the anti-seizure medication Topamax (topiramate).?


Weight Loss Methods


It is only approved for people who are obese (a body mass index, or BMI, of 30 or above) or overweight people (BMI of 27 or higher) and who also suffer from conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes or high cholesterol.


Weight Loss Method


Phentermine once was prescribed widely as the "phen" part of the fen-phen weight-loss drug Cheap Rashaad Penny Jersey , which was withdrawn from the market in 1997 after it was linked to both high blood pressure in the lungs and heart valve disease. The problems appeared to be related to the "fen," or fenfluramine, part of the combination, not the phentermine.


Qsymia was initially denied FDA approval in 2010 because of potential side effects, including heart palpitations and birth defects -- such as cleft lip in babies -- if taken by pregnant women.


Phentermine is believed to work by controlling appetite and Topamax by speeding up metabolism.?


Are things busy at your house or workplace? Imagine how in must be at Celestial Control Central:


?Good morning, Gabriel. Let's go over what's on the old schedule for today.?


?Yes Cheap Kam Chancellor Jersey , Sir. We've got a hurricane brewing in the Caribbean, set to hit Haiti with 90-mile-an-hour winds at sunset. Mount Keemakeetoa in Indonesia is going to start belching smoke today and shake a little, but the big eruption is on Friday.?


?What about human activity??


?As You know, sir, the Middle East is still a hot spot, along with Central Africa and Eastern Europe. That counter-revolutionary group in Peru is planning a strike against Lima in a few days. Beyond those Cheap Doug Baldwin Jersey , we have the usual bombings, murders, drunk-drivers, plane crashes, and sinking ships.?


?Hmm.?


?Plus hypocrisies, fallings from grace Cheap Earl Thomas III Jersey , heresies, factions, and the common sins of the flesh.?


?Crowded schedule. Review the positive side for Us.?


?There's a big evangelistic effort going on in Caracas, Venezuela, today. Dozens are hearing the gospel for the first time. A Mrs. Dunlap is having lunch with her neighbor that until today had not spoken to her in 15 years. Two scholars are putting the final touches on a book that will convince hearts and minds of the authority and inspiration of the Scriptures. And those 37 couples in San Bernadino??


?Excuse me, Gabriel Cheap Russell Wilson Jersey , but Katrina McGee is about to pray. It will only take a few minutes. Then we can finish our meeting.?


?No problem. First things first.?


Gabriel leans back to wait.


The Apostle Peter knew God's heart when he quoted Ps. 34:16: ?? the eyes of the LORD are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer.?? (1 Peter 3:12). Since He's never too busy to listen, and puts no one on hold, let's pour out our hearts to Him every day.
