Lifestyle and obesity

  • Industrialization has changed lifestyle, diet, and health of individuals living in urban areas
  • • Correlated with the rise of obesity and the number

    of associated deaths
  • Lifestyle modifications aim to reduce the burden of obesity and reduce the associated conditions

Bali in transition: today tourism is

  Rice fields were converted to villas and cottages, souvenir shops can be found everywhere. From: various sources

Why study the Balinese?

  1. Impact of lifestyle changes for the Balinese (urban vs rural environment)

  2. Susceptibility gene(s) associated with disease traits

SUMMARY

  • • Obesity is tightly linked to interaction of genetics with

    environment
  • • An epidemic of obesity is driven by lifestyle changes –

    increase intake of sugar
  • Gut microbiota might be infuenced by genetic background
  • There is an indication of gut microbiota infuence on obesity
  • Gut microbiota is modulated by diet, including sugar, that in turn will infuence general health
  • Greater understanding of the tripartite (host factors, socio-economic-environment, gut microbiota) infuence on the host state is needed
