First of all, it is the enemy of health and longevity.
According to statistics, the incidence of cerebral embolism and heart failure in obese people is twice as high as that in normal weight people, the risk of coronary heart disease is more than twice as high as that in normal weight people, the incidence of hypertension is two to six times higher than that in normal weight people, and diabetic patients are four to six times higher than that in normal weight people. What is more serious is that the life span of obese people can be significantly shortened. It is reported that 10% of overweight 45-year-old men have a life span four years shorter than that of normal-weight men. According to Japanese standard mortality statistics, the percentage is 100%, and the obesity mortality rate is 127.9%.
Second, the influence of labor and easy injury.
Obese people are prone to heat intolerance, sweating, fatigue, edema of lower limbs, varicose veins, skin wrinkles and dermatitis. Seriously obese people have slow and difficult walking activities, little activity, palpitation and shortness of breath, which affects normal life and even leads to serious loss of labor. Because obese people are slow to react, they are also vulnerable to various injuries, such as car accidents, fractures and sprains.
Third, it is easy to suffer from coronary heart disease and hypertension.
Obese adipose tissue increases, oxygen consumption increases, heart working ability decreases, myocardial hypertrophy, especially the burden on left ventricle increases, which is easy to induce hypertension after a long time. Lipids are deposited on the arterial wall, which leads to lumen stenosis and sclerosis, and is prone to coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, stroke and sudden death.
Fourth, it is prone to endocrine and metabolic diseases.
With the abnormal metabolism and endocrine caused by obesity, many diseases often occur. Diabetes can cause abnormal glucose metabolism, fat metabolism can cause hyperlipidemia, and nucleic acid metabolism can cause hyperuricemia. Obese women may have irregular menstruation due to ovarian dysfunction.
Fifth, it has adverse effects on lung function.
The function of the lungs is to supply oxygen to the body and expel carbon dioxide. Obesity caused by weight gain needs more oxygen, but the lung function does not increase with it. The accumulation of abdominal fat and obesity limit the respiratory movement of the lungs, which will cause hypoxia and dyspnea, leading to cardiopulmonary failure.
Six easy to cause hepatobiliary diseases
Because obesity hyperinsulinemia makes endogenous triglyceride synthesis hyperactive, it will lead to the accumulation of triglycerides synthesized by the liver, thus forming fatty liver. Compared with normal people, the content of cholesterol in bile of obese people increases more than the solubility of bile, so obese people are prone to gallstones with high cholesterol ratio. It is reported that 50 ~ 80% of women suffering from gallstones are obese. At the time of surgery, about 30% of height obesity is related to gallstones. Cholelithiasis is common in the following situations: the incidence of gallstones in obese women over 40 years old is about 6 times higher than that in obese women with normal weight.
Seven, it will increase the difficulty of operation and cause postoperative infection.
Obesity increases the risk of anesthesia, postoperative wound dehiscence is easy to be infected, and the probability of pneumonia complications is lower than that of non-obese people.
Eight, can cause joint diseases.
Weight gain will wear or tear many joints (such as spine, shoulders, elbows, hips and ankles) and cause pain.
Nine complicated hernias
Obesity can be complicated with many kinds of hernia, among which esophageal hiatal hernia with upper stomach shifting to chest is the most common.
