Obesity overview:
Being overweight or obese is characterized by having an excess amount of body fat that is not considered normal or healthy for an individual’s height. It can increase the risk of developing many health problems such as heart diseases, diabetes, and hypertension.
The BMI (Body Mass Index) is a great tool used to assess the body composition and measure weight in comparison to height. Accordingly, you can know if you are overweight or not.
A BMI of 25 is the threshold for obesity. When an individual has a BMI above 25, that person is considered overweight or obese.
The human body stores an average of 1,400 to 2,000 calories of carbohydrates and an average of 50,000 to 80,000 calories of fat. This means that people have huge fat stores in their bodies, and if they don’t burn fat properly, they can end up gaining a lot of weight.
Since people started to follow the new modern dietary pattern, known as the Western pattern diet (WPD) or standard American diet (SAD), obesity became more prevalent across communities and consists of a serious health issue.
The WPD or SAD incorporates a high amount of fast food, processed meat, high sugar products, refined grains, and other food items into one’s diet. These foods are unhealthy because they contain a high number of calories and have less nutritional value compared to other foods.
