体重超重的危害
体重超重的危害包括以下几个方面:

* Diabetes: Obesity is the leading cause of type 2 diabetes. Excess fat makes your body resistant to insulin. When your body is resistant to insulin, your cells can't get the energy they need.

* Abnormal blood fats: A diet high in saturated fats increases the level of LDL (bad) cholesterol.
   
* Osteoarthritis: Excess weight adds pressure to joints and wears away at the cartilage that protects them.
   
* Sleep apnea: The more overweight a person is, the greater more severe the sleep apnea will be.
   
* Cancer: Men and women who are overweight have a higher risk of developing many different kinds of cancer.
   
* Gallstones: Gallstones are more common in people who are overweight. The connection between gallstones and weight is unclear.
   
* Weak Pelvic Muscles
   
* Physical Discomfort: As fat accumulates, it crowds the space occupied by your organs. People who are overweight may have difficulty breathing, walking or sitting.

中风

血脂异常:高饱和脂肪酸的饮食能够增加低密度脂蛋白胆固醇的程度。

关节炎:额外的体重增加了关节的压力,并且在软骨保护时加剧了磨损。
睡眠性呼吸暂停综合症:一个人越胖,该症状就会越严重。
