Medical Obesity
Understanding Medical Obesity
Medical obesity is a condition characterized by an excessive accumulation of body fat that presents a risk to health. This type of obesity is often linked to genetic factors, hormonal imbalances, and underlying medical conditions such as hypothyroidism or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Medical obesity requires a comprehensive approach to treatment, often involving medical interventions alongside lifestyle changes. Recognizing and addressing the root medical causes is essential for effective and sustainable weight management.
Medical Obesity and Its Impact on the Body and Wellness
Medical obesity can significantly impact both physical health and overall wellness. It increases the risk of developing chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers. The excess weight can also strain joints, leading to pain and mobility issues, and negatively affect mental health, contributing to conditions like depression and anxiety. Effective management of medical obesity is crucial for improving quality of life and preventing long-term health complications.
