An alarming number of Americans were considered overweight or obese in 1999. Obesity continues to be a major problem and is expected to reach epidemic levels by the year 2020.
One of the methods to correct this problem is to make people aware of the risks of being overweight or obese through education. Here are some of the diseases that a person who carries a lot of extra pounds may be in danger of.
1. heart disease
2. stroke
3. diabetes
4. cancer
5. arthritis
6. hypertension.
The quick loss methods do not work or just do not have long lasting results. Cutting out meals is not the way to go, a healthy sensible diet three times a day is the way to go. The key to a healthy diet is do not starve yourself. You may seem happy and feel that you are losing those unwanted flabs on your belly and thighs by skipping meals. But remember that this will not last long. Your body cannot handle having insufficient food to fuel the energy that you use up everyday.
