● Hypertension
Hypertensive patients have a harder heart than healthy people. The heavier you are, the more likely you are to have high blood pressure. Even with mild hypertension, before the age of 65, the probability of stroke is three times higher than that of people with normal blood pressure, so the number of deaths will be l times higher.
● Diabetes
The researchers found that too many fat cells need the pancreas to secrete too much insulin to convert sugar in the blood into energy. When the pancreas is overloaded, its function will be weakened, so the sugar in the blood will increase and cannot be fully utilized and excreted.
Obese women are four times more likely to have diabetes than normal women. 70% of diabetics are obese. After losing weight, the diabetes patients caused by obesity will improve their condition and the metabolic function of sugar will return to normal.
● Affect life.
Most life insurance companies in the United States use a person's weight as the standard for estimating life expectancy. According to its data, if you are lighter than the "ideal weight" calculated by height, you can live longer.
● Dermatosis
Dermatologists point out that because fat people sweat more, it will destroy the original function of skin to prevent infection. Fat people are prone to eczema, rash, scabies and other skin diseases.
● High risk during operation.
The surgeon said, "The heavier a person is, the higher the accident risk rate from anesthesia to operation. The biggest danger is heart failure. In addition, the wound is prone to inflammation and the hospitalization time is longer than that of thin people. "
● Snoring
Fat people snore more easily than thin people. Although this is not a serious illness, it also affects health, and it is easy to hold your breath when sleeping, which interferes with the sleep of your spouse or roommate.
● Gynecological diseases
An American doctor said: "Very obese women secrete excessive estrogen. When there is too much estrogen and too little lutein, she may have edema or brain swelling and her weight will be heavier. "
Obese women are often prone to irregular menstruation, such as long-term, irregular and massive flow, as well as hirsutism, that is, abnormal growth of body hair caused by hormone imbalance. Vaginal infection and some premenstrual complications are also related to obesity.
● Kidney disease
The kidney filters the blood in the body about 25 times a day to remove waste and toxins from the blood and maintain the balance of salt, water and other substances. Kidney experts say that being overweight is easy to harm the main organs of the body, because diabetes and hypertension, two causes of kidney diseases, are related to obesity.
● Cancer
The American Cancer Society found that a person's weight is more than 40% heavier than the average weight of the same age group, and the probability of developing endometrial cancer is 5.4 times that of normal people. The risk of gallbladder cancer is 3.8 times; The risk of cervical cancer is 2.4 times that of normal people; The probability of breast cancer is 1.5 times.
● Heart disease
Even obese people with very low cholesterol have a much higher risk of heart disease than normal people, because fat will adhere to the blood vessel wall. Excess fat will not only affect the appearance, but also make the blood not get enough oxygen. In order to make up for this situation, the body will produce too many red blood cells, which will make the blood sticky and slow down. In obese people, the heart will expand and weaken due to excessive fatigue, and in severe cases, "congestive heart failure" will occur. Research shows that obesity is more likely to cause heart disease than smoking.
● Foot diseases
The expert said: "It is too hard to support the weight of 50 kilograms with one foot, and it is too hard to force it to support the weight of more than 70 kilograms, which also exceeds its load." Because your whole body weight is supported by your feet, your toenails are deeply immersed in the meat, and corns, calluses and various foot diseases mostly happen to obese people.
Low back pain
Overweight body will increase excessive bending tension to back muscles, ligaments, tendons, etc., leading to low back pain, which will form chronic low back pain over time. In addition, a bulging abdomen can easily cause back pain.
● The quality of sexual life has declined.
Obesity is due to hormonal imbalance, irregular menstruation and reduced physiological needs. Coupled with excessive abdominal fat, movements will become clumsy and inflexible, affecting the quality of husband and wife's sexual life.
● Affect pregnancy.
Pregnancy is a big challenge for obese women, because obese people are not easy to get pregnant and have great psychological pressure. In addition, the burden of heart, blood vessels, kidneys and respiratory tract is heavier than that of ordinary women. Once pregnant, the symptoms will be aggravated accordingly. Even proteinuria. Female diabetics also have a high proportion of deformed children. Generally, the fetuses of obese women are overweight, so care should be taken to prevent dystocia.
It seems that maintaining an ideal weight is absolutely healthy. Even slightly overweight people are not as healthy as thin people. Based on the above reasons, I hope to make dieters who lose weight by scientific methods more confident.
