According to The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, being overweight is far more serious than being a cosmetic problem only. As a matter of fact, obesity is associated with higher risk of heart problems, too.
OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY-RELATED HEALTH PROBLEMS IN ADULTS
Coronary Heart Disease
There is a strong link between high body mass index and an increased risk for coronary heart disease, a condition in which plaque accumulates inside the coronary arteries.
Consequently, this waxy substance narrows or blocks the arteries, thus reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. This can lead to either angina or a heart attack.
Obesity is likely to lead to heart failure too, a condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood required for the body.
High Blood Pressure
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious condition which damages the body in many different ways. Overweight or obese individuals have greater chances of having high blood pressure.
Stroke
As mentioned above, being overweight or obese leads to accumulation of plaque in the arteries, which causes blood clot to form over time.
If by any chance the clot is nearby the brain, it may block the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain, causing a stroke. As body mass index increases, the risk of having stroke raises, too.
Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes is a condition in which the blood sugar level is too high. Typically, the body breaks down food into glucose (sugar) and transports it to all cells which use insulin to convert glucose into energy.
As for diabetes type 2, the body is unable to use insulin the right way, leading to production of more insulin. However, the body eventually loses its ability to produce insulin and fails to control its blood sugar level. It is worth mentioning that most people with diabetes type 2 are overweight.
Type 2 diabetes is the leading cause of stroke, kidney disease, blindness, CHD, and premature death.
