Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat
accumulates to the extent that it may have a negative impact on health. It is a
leading preventable cause of death worldwide. Given the high prevalence of
obesity among adults and children, WHO considers it one of the most serious
public health problems of the 21st century. In India, obesity is mostly caused
by a combination of excessive dietary energy consumption, a sedentary lifestyle
- lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility.
People are obese when the body mass index (BMI), a measure
obtained by dividing a person's weight on a person's height box, exceeds 30 kg
/ m 2. Obesity increases the risk of many physical and mental illnesses. These
associated diseases are commonly found in the metabolic syndrome called
diabetes, a group of medical disorders that include: Type 2 diabetes, high
blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high triglyceride levels. Obesity is a
debilitating disease of the mind, body, and soul and must be fully addressed
for long-term success.
Weight
loss helps reduce the amount of food you can eat at once, and some weight
loss measures change your digestive system so that fewer calories are absorbed
from the food you eat. This makes you more likely to end up with a shortage of
calories on what is needed as fuel for daily activity. To make up for this
deficit, the body begins to use fat stores that have accumulated over the years
as a source of energy. When this fat is burned, your weight begins to decrease.
