Obesity contrary to common beliefs is a serious complaint defined as excessive body weight, which is closely related to the increased amount of fat accumulated in the body. Although we admit - we are more concerned about visible folds and folds in known places and the loss of beauty and fitness of movements caused by them. And most often for this reason, we are slimming.
CAN WE RECOGNIZE AN OBJECTIVE?
Yes! We speak about obesity when the body weight exceeds 120% of the body mass due or when the body fat content will exceed the accepted norms, i.e. it will exceed 12-20% in men and 20-30% in women. But be careful! These standards apply to young people. As we get older, the adipose tissue grows in place of lean body mass, therefore in the elderly the percentage of fat in the body increases, even at constant body mass.
Is obesity really a disease and must be treated? - already in the course of slimming, you can ask deceitful people "fluffy", especially when they are young, full of energy and have not yet experienced the "luggage" they carry through life? Let us not be fooled. These at first unnoticeable "metabolic disorders of metabolism" - seriously threaten health and life
