Brief Summary: Objective obesity is an important risk factor of chronic diseases which not only threatens peoples 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
