Brief Summary:
Objective: obesity is an important risk factor of chronic diseases, which not only threatens people's health, but also an important topic of public health. The purpose of this study is to define obesity according to the norms of the World Health Organization, and to explore whether combined weight loss methods have an impact on weight loss.
Methods:
In this study, Combined treatment of abdominal acupoint catgut embedding was combined with auricular pellet acupressure, The wire used for catgut embedding in the experiment was polydioxanone (PDO) 。 This experiment was divided into two groups: the experimental group A and the control group B 。 The reference measurement basis is the data obtained by "Inbody" instrument, including height and weight, body mass index (BMI), basic metallic rate (BMR), Body Fat Percentage BFP) , waist hip ratio and the data of total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) obtained from biochemical blood examination, through the comparison before and after the test, we can judge whether the method of this test can achieve a certain degree of curative effect on weight loss.
