Resumo: | There is a wide acknowledgement of obesity as a relevant clinical entity. Such relevance can be inferred by the huge worldwide amount of research and related health promotion and clinical efforts. Though the evidence sustains some cues for the therapeutic success, the overall long-term effectiveness of obesity treatment tends to be not so satisfactory. Scientific literature is not unequivocal in key areas of nutritional intervention, such as the magnitude of caloric restriction, proportion of macronutrients, meal frequency, among others. The same applies to the area of physical activity recommendation for weight control. As a correlate of this scenario of incertitude, there is a proliferation of interventions and there is a clear need to integrate the scientific and clinical evidence. This paper presents a narrative literature review of key issues of clinical practice in obesity, regarding a set of actions that, in the overall, have as main purpose the promotionof reduction and/or control of body weight. The role of the health professional is highlighted as a facilitator of acquisition of habits that favor weight control, by integrating the professional’s scientific knowledge with the patient’s readiness for and capacity to change. |

Promoting Sustainable Behavior Change in Body Weight ControlPromovendo Mudanças Comportamentais Sustentáveis no Controlo do Peso CorporalThere is a wide acknowledgement of obesity as a relevant clinical entity.

Se a evidência produzida aponta para algumas direções de sucesso terapêutico, a efetividade destas a médio ou longo prazo tende a ser pouco satisfatória. A literatura não é inequívoca em áreas nucleares da intervenção nutricional para tratamento da obesidade, como sejam a magnitude da restrição energética, a proporção dos macronutrientes, o fracionamento alimentar, entre outros. O mesmo acontece na área da recomendação de atividade física. Proliferam assim as formas de intervenção e importa portanto fazer um exercício de integração da evidência científica e clínica. Este artigo consiste numa revisão narrativa de questões centrais para a prática da intervenção em obesidade, nomeadamente no que toca às ações que, no seu conjunto, visam a redução e/ou controlo do peso corporal e seus benefícios. Salienta-se o papel do profissional de saúde como promotor de hábitos que favorecem o controlo do peso corporal, numa perspetiva que integra o saber científico do profissional com a disponibilidade e capacidade para a mudança do doente.

There is a wide acknowledgement of obesity as a relevant clinical entity. Such relevance can be inferred by the huge worldwide amount of research and related health promotion and clinical efforts. Though the evidence sustains some cues for the therapeutic success, the overall long-term effectiveness of obesity treatment tends to be not so satisfactory. Scientific literature is not unequivocal in key areas of nutritional intervention, such as the magnitude of caloric restriction, proportion of macronutrients, meal frequency, among others. The same applies to the area of physical activity recommendation for weight control. As a correlate of this scenario of incertitude, there is a proliferation of interventions and there is a clear need to integrate the scientific and clinical evidence. This paper presents a narrative literature review of key issues of clinical practice in obesity, regarding a set of actions that, in the overall, have as main purpose the promotionof reduction and/or control of body weight. The role of the health professional is highlighted as a facilitator of acquisition of habits that favor weight control, by integrating the professional’s scientific knowledge with the patient’s readiness for and capacity to change. |
