7 diseases that lurk Si Fat

Why? Because people who suffer from obesity are at increased risk of various diseases and health problems. Here are some of them most often a threat.

1. HEART AND BLOOD DISORDERS TUBE
Obesity is a major cause of heart disease and blood vessel (cardiovascular). Because obesity causes increased cardiac workload, because the bigger a person's body, the heart must work harder to pump blood throughout the body. When you've exceeded the ability of the heart, there was the so-called heart failure. Signs, and incidence of shortness of breath swelling of the legs.

People with obesity are also often suffer from high blood pressure (hypertension) due to narrowing of blood vessels due to fat deposits tongs. The combination of obesity and hypertension is of course aggravate the heart. Consequently, the resulting thickening of the heart chamber wall with a lack of oxygen. This situation will accelerate the emergence of heart failure.

2. LUNGS FUNCTION DISORDERS.
Again fat triggers the problem. In people with obesity, this heap can suppress the respiratory tract. This could lead to stop breathing during sleep (sleep apnea). Disorders such a long time can cause heart failure as well and ends with the death.

3. CAUSE DIABETES AND ENHANCING THE CHOLESTEROL
Obesity can cause diabetes (diabetes mellitus). This is due to interference with insulin action on infected.

Insulin is a hormone produced by the body. Its function, among others, include sugar from the blood into body cells to be used as an energy source. As a result of dysfunction of insulin, glucose can not enter the cells, so that it remains circulating in the blood. It can be seen from the increased blood sugar levels.

Impaired insulin function was also lead to disturbances of fat metabolism (dyslipidemia). It can be seen from the increase in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol), triglycerides, but accompanied by a decrease in HDL (good cholesterol).

Increased levels of bad cholesterol accompanied by decreased levels of cholesterol lead to formation of the crust in the blood vessels (atherosclerosis). Atherosclerosis will reduce the diameter of blood vessels, causing coronary heart disease and stroke.

4. INTERFERENCE joints
Obesity will lead to increased weight load on joints buffer. For example, knee joints, so after a long time can cause inflammation of the joints (osteoarthritis). The symptoms include, pain in the joints, followed by swelling. Joints also become rigid immovable. The worst, sufferers can not walk anymore.

5. HORMONAL SYSTEM DISRUPTION
Obesity was also affect the hormonal system in the body. In girls, obesity causes the first period (menarkhe) come early. In adult women, obesity can cause hormonal balance disorders (hyperandrogenism, hirsutism), and disruption of the menstrual cycle.

Hyperandrogenism means the amount of the hormone androgen (male) increases. Resulting in hirsutism (sign masculinization). For example spotty, distribution of hairs on the face and body, maybe even change the sound to be heavy as a male voice.

In women, obesity also increase the risk of gallstones. This occurs because the liquid becomes more viscous bile.

6. INCREASE THE RISK OF DISEASE Malignant
The results showed, in women who are experiencing menopause, obesity increases the risk of cancer of the uterus (endometrium) and breast cancer. Whereas in men, obesity can increase the risk of prostate cancer and colon cancer (colorectal).

7. PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS

Based on research for 30 years to the 1800 Swedish men who started when they were aged 50 years, the researchers concluded that obese people do not have a healthy metabolism. During the period of this study are generally those who are obese die of cardiovascular disease, such as stroke or heart attack.

In addition to the factors of obesity, the experts also measured the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, such as blood sugar levels, hypertension, trigiliserida, cholesterol, and waist circumference, which is one risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

Previously experts argue that the risk of heart disease is lower in obese people who do not have metabolic syndrome. This causes the grouping of the healthy obese.

However, latest reports said the study's generally not a long-term research because of health problems usually only appear after 15 years.

In a report published in the medical journal Circulation, the researchers noted that long-term risk of disease remains high despite obese people do not have metabolic syndrome.

Habit of eating high calorie fatty foods and exercise that is not balanced is a gateway to obesity or overweight who will invite disease. To reduce the risk of obesity, food consumption should be limited and balanced with regular exercise.
