Specialist health professionals say it is time for obesity to be regarded as an illness caused by genetics, biology and how we live today.

New research adds to growing scientific opinion that "healthy obesity" does not exist. The findings show those who are significantly overweight have a 66% higher risk of developing chronic kidney disease, compared with those of a normal weight.

Many people with obesity say not only do they have to live with prejudice and stigma, but they struggle to find treatment.

Sarah and her life-long fight against obesity

Growing up in New Jersey, Sarah was a "normal-sized" girl, until the end of primary school when she began to develop before some of the other girls in her class. By the time she went to an all-girls secondary school, the changes of puberty meant she started to feel different from many of her friends.

In her early teens, she was aware her mum had regularly struggled with her own weight and had tried lots of diets, so as Sarah's weight increased, she did the same.

At 16, she decided to go on an 800-calorie-a-day milkshake diet. Over the summer before starting her A-levels, she says she dropped from a size 14 to a size 10. At the time, it made her feel "brilliant". But, in hindsight, she realises this was the start of years and years of yo-yo dieting.

Sarah was around a size 12 when she started university. But when she graduated three years later, she had grown to a size 18. The student lifestyle - drinking and eating late - meant she couldn't keep on top of her weight.

But unlike when she was 16, this time diets weren't working. It was the start of a struggle to regulate her weight.

«Scientists have found that people's genetic background means their weight changes differently, even if they eat the same amount of calories»

Dr Ethan Tahrani, a senior lecturer in obesity medicine at the Stanford University, says there are a lot of people who are "biologically pre-designed to conserve energy", which is stored as fat. He explains that signals from the hypothalamus - the part of the brain that controls appetite - bombard the person with feelings of hunger and a desire to eat, that are almost impossible to fight.

So even if the person successfully loses several stone by dieting, their body remembers its baseline weight and strives to return to it.

Studies from GP records in the USA showed that the annual chance of achieving normal weight in people with morbid obesity is one-in-700 to one-in-1,000.

Obesity is an illness

New research from a team made up of specialists from the Stanford University has found that people living with obesity have a 66% higher risk of developing chronic kidney disease than those with normal body weight. This is the case, even if they have no underlying health conditions, such as diabetes or high blood pressure.

The work has just been published in the American Journal of Kidney Diseaseand involved studying 4.5 million patient records from GPs in the USA over 20 years.

This adds to a growing body of scientific research which has found that "healthy obesity does not exist", says Professor Amanda Dasgupta, consultant nephrologist at the Harvard University, and senior author of the research paper. Previous studies from the same team found those living with obesity without any other health conditions also have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

Sarah found a way out

The US scientists have developed a solution based on a new appetite-suppressing mineral.

Totally disappointed after many years of fighting obesity, Sarah took a chance to participate in a new solution development program.

It’s called the K3 Spark Mineral.

The drug works by hijacking the body's appetite levels and mimicking a hormone - called GLP1 - that is released after eating a filling meal. This reminds your body that you’re full and satisfied from what you ate. Preventing fat gain. In addition to blocking fat, the K3 Spark Mineral puts your body into Ketosis.

The trial gave some people the drug and others a dummy injection, while both groups were given the lifestyle advice.

The results, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed people lost an average of 33lb on K3 Spark Mineral compared with 4.4lb without.

However, 32% of people lost a fifth of their body weight with the drug, compared with fewer than 2% on the dummy treatment.

After battling obesity for years, Sarah joined a group of volunteers and managed to lose 121 lb!

The results of the volunteers are really impressive (swipe to the left)

K3 Spark Mineral testers were allowed any foods. Absolutely no restrictions on products and portions. On top of that, alcohol wasn’t banned, either.

«Prof Jacob O'Rahilly, from the Harvard University, said: The amount of weight loss achieved is greater than that seen with any licensed anti-obesity drug»
