5 diseases caused by abdominal obesity

 When the waist circumference exceeds a certain length, it becomes more than just an aesthetic issue. Because we're talking about it, abdominal obesity can lead to a variety of dangerous diseases and health complications. If this problem affects you or a loved one, be sure to read about the potential consequences!

 

Diabetes

This dangerous disease is spreading like wildfire in our time, which is very sad. It can cause a lot of dangerous problems, like problems with the kidneys, eyesight, or nervous system. That's why it's important to know how to spot the first signs of diabetes so you can start treating it as soon as possible.

 

Problems with the heart and blood vessels

Coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, heart attack. These are just some of the ways that being overweight can hurt the circulatory system. Cardiovascular diseases, like diabetes, are one of the so-called "diseases of civilization." 

 

Hypertension

Hypertension is one of the most important factors that increase cardiovascular risk, which is the risk of developing dangerous complications such as heart attack, stroke, and even death in the future. It is also one of the diseases of the circulatory system.

 

Metabolic syndrome

Metabolic syndrome refers to a collection of disorders that frequently occur simultaneously. The metabolic syndrome involves type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and/or lipid problems, in addition to abdominal obesity (the primary illness). In order to discuss the metabolic syndrome, at least two of the disorders listed above, in addition to abdominal obesity, must be present.

 

Joint problems

It is easy to assume that a huge belly means extra pounds and a strain on bones and joints. This can result in the development of musculoskeletal illnesses such as rheumatism or osteoarthritis. As a result, they may cause pain and movement issues, including full stiffness.

 

Abdominal obesity is becoming more common among Poles and Polish women. It is frequently the result of a poor diet, excessive alcohol consumption, and a lack of physical activity. With the potential repercussions, it is worth planning ahead of time to maintain a healthy weight. For both health and happiness.
