Obesity Related Diseases We Need To Say Goodbye To This International Women’s Day!

-
While most of us women conveniently choose to perceive the International Women’s Day as a celebration of the identity, self-esteem, freedom and whatnot, the fact remains that if we women are not beautiful inside out, the day ends up losing its true meaning.
the fact that Indian women do not pay attention to health and fitness placing their family obligations on top of everything else (including their own health), makes for a perfect recipe for the onset of obesity and overweight.
Ladies, pledge to keep your health as your topmost priority and make a healthy world for you and your loved ones.
So on this International Women’s Day, let us open our eyes to the hazardous effects of obesity and the diseases caused by being overweight.
1. High Blood Pressure
Obesity is one of the major causes of high blood pressure, which is amongst the top causes of death besides obstructive pulmonary disease, diarrhoea and tuberculosis.
High blood pressure also exposes you to the risk of a stroke or a heart attack, which can kill you or may even leave you paralyzed and disabled for the rest of your life.
2. Diabetes
Type-2 diabetes is another deadly disease caused by obesity. Obesity paves way for insulin resistance, which causes diabetes.
There is an array of after-effects of diabetes including vision impairment, kidney problems, gangrene, etc.
3. High Cholesterol and Heart Disease
Studies indicate that people who carry excess weight have a higher risk of having a heart attack before the age of 35.
Consumption of saturated oil found in most junk foods seems to be the leading cause of obesity.
4. Infertility
Obesity causes abnormal hormonal levels which leads to ovarian failure and thus fertility.
Obesity also causes PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), which is a common cause of fertility.
Studies also suggest that women who are overweight or obese have less chance of getting pregnant overall.
5. Back Pain
Obesity can expose you to various aches and pains including that of the neck, shoulder, back, spine, legs, ankle, etc, the reason being that these body parts carry your body weight.

People who are overweight are at a much greater risk to suffer from back and spine pain.
6. Depression
Obesity causes hormonal imbalances which lead to depression among women and even men. Obesity also causes low self-esteem which in the long run, turns into clinical depression.
It has also been found that obese people are more likely to experience mood disorders than people who have a healthy weight.
So these were some hard facts about obesity and its health hazards. Join hands with health and fitness this International Women’s Day and see how it changes your life and your world.
