Obesity is simply
defined as- additional body fats that accumulates within the body to a much
greater extent that impacts the body negatively. It is a medical condition in
which the individual is not considered to be healthy but obese. It is not just
a superficial concern but it is a serious medical condition that leads to
numerous diseases such as, thyroid, cardiac diseases, diabetes and various
other protracted diseases. While, a fine amount of body fat is vital for the
storage of energy.
One can easily find if
he is obese or not, through (BMI) – Body Mass Index. The BMI is calculated by
using the individual’s body weight and height. One can easily calculate the
Body Mass Index (BMI) which is equal to the weight of an individual in (Kg)
kilograms, divided by the height of an individual in (m) meters- squared.
The BMI of an adult if
calculated and is above 30, he is considered to be obese. Whereas, if an adult
has a BMI around 25-29.9, he is considered overweight or heavy. There are ways
to control this medical condition which include- medicines, proper diet plan
and physical exercises. Although, there is no such wonder treatment for obesity
but with a proper doctor prescribed medications and treatments, one can be
cured.
