Obesity is recognized as major health problem and not just a cosmetic or lifestyle problem. People who are overweight and obese are more likely to develop health problems such as:
• Type 2 Diabetes
• Heart Disease
• Gout
• Gallbladder
• Hypertension
• Osteoarthritis
• Lipid disorders
• Metabolic syndrome
• Sleep apnoea
• Impaired fertility
• Low back problems
• Increase anesthetic risk
Of major concern is that most Malaysia tend to get abdominal obesity ( around the tummy ) rather then generalized obesity, which can lead to long-term degenerative diseases like diabetes, stroke, heart attack, renal failure and gallbladder problems.
Besides the physical dangers to your well-being, being obese also has many emotional sufferings such as poor image, self consciousness, or inferiority complexes. Obese people often face prejudice or discrimination at work, at school and in social situations. Feeling rejection, shame or depression are common.
The terms “ overweight ” or “ obese ” are used to describe excess body weight. Overweight typically refers to weight 10% above the expected weight for height and build. Obese refers to being 20% over the target. The greater the excess, the higher health risk the person will have.
