Obesity affects nearly every system in the body, increasing the risk of serious health conditions such as:
• Diabetes (especially type 2 diabetes)
• Heart disease (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and stroke)
• Joint problems (arthritis and mobility issues)
• Sleep apnea (breathing difficulties during sleep)
• Certain cancers (such as breast, colon, and kidney cancer)
• Mental health issues (depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem)
Maintaining a healthy weight through balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and lifestyle changes can help reduce these risks.
