20.10.2023 18:00
Despite the fact that in the modern world tolerance to excess weight is openly positioned, obesity is still an official medical term.
This is a very dangerous phenomenon, which generally has a destructive effect on the body and contributes to the development of chronic diseases.
So it's important to watch your weight. Some people are dangerously close to being diagnosed.
How to understand that obesity is already on the way
High body mass index
There are various techniques and methods that allow you to calculate normal weight for your age, gender and height. If any method shows you are obese, then this is a reason to make an appointment with a nutritionist.
At the initial stage, there is still a chance to quickly and effectively deal with the problem.
Cholesterol and sugar levels
Experts don't just talk about the need to maintain a normal weight for no reason: the reason is not at all in beauty standards. Excess weight leads to increased sugar and cholesterol levels in the blood. And this means that not only obesity is on the way: you should prepare for diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
Walks
Overweight people whose weight is not close to the critical obesity mark feel good during walks and physical activity.
If there are already problems, then the person experiences shortness of breath and fatigue even when climbing stairs.
Cravings for fatty and high-calorie foods
Excess weight was formed due to incorrect eating habits. If you notice that you constantly eat fatty and high-calorie foods, then you should give them up.
However, if you are obese, this will be extremely difficult to do.
