The article presents the results of using an integrated method of controlling body weight, appetite and eating behavior while using short-term inhalations of highly concentrated oxygen with the addition of grapefruit oil. Material and methods: The work included 33 people (mean age 39.5±6.1 years) with overweight. Anthropometric measurements, assessment of eating behavior disorders, questionnaires carried out. The subjects were divided into two groups: group 1 (18 people), where a low-calorie diet, training sessions, and high-concentration oxygen inhalations were prescribed (Tesla's Secret by Eco Medical Europe Ltd Oxygen Breathing Mixture, Natural); group 2 (15 people), whose in addition to physical activity and diet has received inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen by adding grapefruit aroma oil (Oxygen Breathing Mixture Grapefruit). The results of the study: It was found that the most common form of eating behavior disorder is emotiogenic (60.6%), with an average score of 3.87±0.65. In group 2, in the dynamics of observation, the score for emotiogenic and external eating behavior statetement decreased, and the restrictive type of eating behavior became dominant. Inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen with the addition of grapefruit oil helped to reduce hunger on the visual analogue scale by 72.2% (p<0.05), increased the feeling of fullness by 14.1% (p<0.05), the parameters “Thoughts on food” and “Desired amount of food” decreased by 97.6% and 21.9% (p<0.05). Analysis of the stage-by-stage control data revealed a positive dynamics of the main indicators - a decrease in body weight, as well as a body mass index. In group 2, where inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen with the addition of grapefruit oil was used, a more significant changes (12.6%, p<0.05) were achieved against group 1, where the decrease in average body weight was 4.3%. In terms of body mass index in group 1, the decrease in BMI was 7.3%, in group 2 - 19.7%. It was proved that a more reliable decrease in BMI, WC, TC and WC/TC ratio was detected in patients of the group 2 (p<0.05), who received a comprehensive program with inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen with grapefruit oil. Both groups showed a decrease in WC, TC and WC/TC ratios, but signs of abdominal distribution of adipose tissue persisted.

Background: One non-pharmacological therapy that can be used to recover is to use distraction techniques with the verses of the Qur'an that can privilege delta waves that cause the listener to be in a calm, peaceful state. Purpose: This study discusses the influence of murottal surah Ar-Rahman on the level of discussion and time of labor in the first phase of active phase. The research design method used was an experimental study with a pretest-posttest research design with a control group design. The research sample was first phase active maternity mothers in primiparous in Siti Fatimah Hospital Makassar. Research samples of 40 samples (20 samples for murottal and 20 samples for control) were chosen and adjusted intentionally. Data were analyzed by chi-square test. Results: There was a level of participation in murottal group respondents before and after the intervention was given, namely p = 0,000 (p <0.05), whereas in control group respondents who were not given murottal, there was no change in the value of p = 0.157 (α> 0, 05). Likewise, the difference in cortisol levels between the murottal group and the control group and the time of delivery after murottal showed an influence on both groups with a value of p = 0.001 (p <0.05). And for the relationship of cortisol level with the level of participation indicated by the coefficient value r = 0.690. Conclusion: There are certain levels, cortisol levels and time of labor in the first phase of the active phase before and after murottal. It is thought that this is the best that can be used in providing effective non-pharmacological relaxation therapy and is also inexpensive in the delivery of labor that can increase the rate of benefit and time of delivery.
