Document Summary
Out: basal metabolism, thermic effect of food_ as you eat you produce heat, physical activity, thermogenesis_ unintentional physical activity ( dgeting, shivering) Bmi: kg/m2 = lbx703/m2: <18. 5 = underweight, 18. 5-24. 9: normal, 25-29. 9: overweight, 30-34. 9: obese class i, 35-39. 9: obese class ii, 40+: obese class iii. Fat distribution: android obesity: apple shape, upper body fat abdominal, more concern: organs, gyroid obesity: pear shape, lower body fat. Fat tissue: white adipose tissue: storage of triglycerides, cushion, insulation, brown adipose tissue: vascularised, heat production, active, used by letargicous animals, present in infants, goes away/replaced by white. Hypertension: increased adipose tissue, increased resistance to blood ow increased plaque build up worsen it, normal bp: <120 systolic, <80 diastolic, prehypertension: 120-139 systolic and/or 80-89 diastolic, stage 1 hypertension: 140-150 syst. and/or 90-99 diast. Cardiovascular disease: increased ldl cholesterol and triglycerids, low physical activity harder to work out, + in ammatory factors swelling in certain areas, usually around blood vessels (hard blood.
