OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY
In adults, obesity is defined as having a BMI of 30.0 or more. Body mass index (BMI) is a calculation that takes a person’s weight and height into account to measure body size.
Obesity is associated with a higher risk for serious diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.
CAUSES OF OBESITY
Eating more calories than you burn in daily activity and exercise — on a long-term basis — can lead to obesity. Over time, these extra calories add up and cause weight gain. But it’s not always just about calories in and calories out, or having a sedentary lifestyle. While those are indeed causes of obesity, some causes you can’t control.
🧣genetics, which can affect how your body processes food into energy and how fat is stored
🧣growing older, can lead to less muscle mass and a slower metabolic rate, making it easier to gain weight
🧣not sleeping enough, which can lead to hormonal changes that make you feel hungrier and crave certain high-calorie foods
🧣pregnancy, as weight gain during pregnancy, may be difficult to lose and might eventually lead to obesity.
Obesity has been linked to a number of health complications, some of which can be life threatening if not treated:
💡type 2 diabetes
💡heart disease
💡high blood pressure
💡certain cancers (breast, colon, and endometrial)
💡stroke
💡gallbladder disease
💡fatty liver disease
💡high cholesterol
💡sleep apnea and other breathing problems
💡arthritis
💡infertility
That is why being at a normal weight is very good.
