12 health problems of being Overweight

Obesity is bad news for both your body and mind. Not only can it make you feel tired and uncomfortable, carrying extra
weight puts added stress on your body, especially your bones and joints. As time goes by, obese people are more likely to develop diabetes and heart disease.Some of the physical and emotional problems that may affect overweight people include:
1. Bent legs.
2. Asthma.
3. High blood pressure.
4. High cholesterol.
5. Diabetes (more insulin is made in the body to absorb the excess sugar. This affects its quality over time)
6. Arthritis (excess body fat increases pressure on joints of the legs especially, creating pains)
7. Sleep apnea (inability to breathe properly while sleeping due to the fat, putting pressure on the respiratory organs).
8. Gallstones (Bile is vital in breaking down fat. An accumulation of bile becomes inevitable which hardens in the gallbladder to form gallstones. These may be painful, so requiring surgery).
9. Fatty liver (When fat accumulates in the liver, it can cause inflammation, scarring and permanent liver damage).
10. Infertility (Women who are overweight may miss periods or not get their periods at all. They may also have elevated testosterone "male hormone" levels in the blood).
11. Fibroids (In most obese women, the chances of fibroids developing are great when there are high insulin levels in their blood. Insulin is required to absorb excess sugar in the body)
12. Depression (People who are obese are more likely to be depressed and have a low self-esteem).
It's obvious to you that these above problems resulting from overweight shouldn't be taken lightly. Nevertheless, it's absolutely true that every problem has a solution.
