I. Introduction: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate evidence-based medicine for treatment protocols, treatment guidelines, and outcomes for Obesity and provide the perspective of conventional medicine, complementary and alternative health, and integrative medicine (IM) to determine new standards for medical treatment. A. Obesity - is an excessive accumulation of fat cell within the body that impairs a person’s health and is called malnutrition or undernutrition. Malnutrition includes wasting, stunting, underweight, inadequate vitamins or minerals, overweight, obesity, and diet-related noncommunicable diseases (â€Å"WHO | Obesity,† 2014). Provide statistical data. There are 50 states that currently have an obesity rating 20% or higher.†¦show more content†¦Based on past research efforts and their success rate I will determine, which medical model will most combat the obesity epidemic. C. Conclusion - The data provides proof that obesity has only increased over the past couple of decades. It shows that there hasn’t been any fluctuations in both adult and childhood obesity. The best practices for the disease/condition would be to understand how different foods affect different body types. It is my belief that the human body is unique to each individual. Foods and their effects on the body needs to be further researched and understood. There are different types of bodies and each body many require special attention when it comes to diet and nutrition. The goal of treatment will be to gain more knowledge of how various herbs, vitamins, and foods affect individuals differently how to incorporate these methods successfully. A clinical care model will include a comprehensive understanding of common foods available to the general public, how often the foods are purchased, and the effects that they have on the general public. Healthier foods will then be integrated that are proven to reduce weight gain and obesity. The clinical model will prove that when lower calorie healthy plant based foods and vegetables are integrated into the diet weight loss is inevitable. II. Review of Evidence-Based Medicine i.
