If you are tired of being obese and have tried all methods to shed weight but have failed, it is time to stop going to gym or dietician. It is time to pay visit to your psychiatrist.
According to a new scientific study conducted at University of Theory and Hypothesis (UTH), childhood insecurities often lead to obesity and this state stays with the person throughout life - at least till these insecurities are addressed and removed from the psyche of the individual.
Obesity acts like a defense mechanism, said Vipin Arora, lead researcher at UTH, who conducted the study.
It could be result of some incidents of violence or sexual misdemeanor that the child faced in childhood or adolescence that makes him obese.
Several animals, for example cats, make themselves appear more impressive and threatening by raising their fur and arching their backs, thus increasing their apparent size. Humans also tend to increase their body size, albeit gradually, as a defense mechanism against unresolved emotional threats and insecurities.
Conducting the research on the basis of questionnaires submitted to over 50 obese males and females and based on their emotional history, the researchers at UTH concluded that those who had been obese since childhood or adolescence had certain ´bad´ experiences immediately before they started turning obese.
Obesity can be checked as soon it appears in your child if you carefully examine, address and resolve the core emotional issues behind it, advised Mr. Arora.
Disclaimer: As the name suggests, University of Theory and Hypothesis, is a sham, but its purpose is not to mislead. The study mentioned above is based entirely on personal observation. But I sincerely believe it to be true. I welcome scientists and social researchers to take up this study and more such studies that will appear on this blog in future. I am sure most of them would prove to be true. - Vipin Arora
