Description

Applying "brain fatigue, "a new hypothesis for the onset of the disease and "Brain Oriented Oneself Care System (BOOCS)", a hypothesis for treatment, the effect in terms of weight reduction for 26 obese subjects was investigated. In addition, by making the initial 3 days of treatment a starvation period, the extent to which "brain fatigue, "was alleviated by BOOCS, was enhanced. After one month of treatment body weight, body mass index (BMI)and percentage of fat fell significantly (p<0.01)with mean reductions of 3.6kg, 1.3 and 2.2% respectively. In addition triglyceride fell by 28.9mg/dl (p<0.05). No significant changes in other indexes were observed, and none of the indexes showed a negative change. Most subjects reported a sense of reduced fatigue, and a sense that once again they had a healthy appetite. These results indicate that by incorporating short-term starvation procedure into BOOCS, "Brain Fatigue"is easily relieved.
