On the rationality of the use of "hunger days" in the treatment of patients with obesity in Kislovodsk
We observed 29 obese patients who were on the 8th diet (according to Pevzner), who used massage and walks, but without "hunger days", and 21 patients of the same type who also had "hunger days". According to the character of obesity, the patients were sedentary workers with exogenous type of obesity. In 6 patients, in addition to the common for all diagnosis "obesity", there were moderately expressed cardiosclerosis phenomena. Patients who were prescribed "starvation days" spent a total of 22 milk days at bed rest, and 14 usual days, and 13 fruit days at bed rest, and 12 usual days. The intervals between "hunger days" were 5-6 days. On milk days the patient received 1 liter of milk, on fruit days - 1 kg of apples, which were equal in weight and calories (500-550 calories). Taking into account that patients lose more weight at the beginning of the treatment, we arranged the "hunger days" in a different sequence.
