New research suggests that being overweight may increase the risk of cancer in women by 20%.
My best client has lost over 238 pounds and is training for the Olympics in Rio. However, believe it or not, my biggest problem is not trying to figure out how to get my clients to lose weight. My biggest problem is trying to get them to listen and follow my instructions.
It’s no secret we live in a country that appears to be losing the battle of the bulge. With fast food restaurants practically on every street corner of America, gaining weight comes pretty easy for most of us. Unfortunately, it is our lust for food that’s creating a wide-spread health epidemic that the medical community has never experienced before. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the estimated annual medical cost of obesity is more than $145 billion dollars and climbing. More than 110,000 people die a year from complications of simply being too fat. If wanting to look better hasn’t been the motivation to drop the extra pounds before, perhaps the health benefits below will inspire you to trade in those bad eating habits for much healthier ones.
1. Sexual Dysfunction - Is This Important to You?
According to Dr. Mary Maida a Neuroscientist for Armageddon Weight Loss Program, just about every system in the body is put at risk for injury, damage or disease. Extra pounds carry an increased risk for heart and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, joint damage and replacement, GI problems, and sexual dysfunction to name a few. Why invite any of these into your life?
2. Chance of Depression Drops Significantly
It’s not uncommon for people to lose confidence in their appearance when they pack on the extra pounds. Sometimes this can also lead to depression. A recent Harvard study found that obese people have a 20 percent elevated risk of depression. When a person reaches this state, he or she generally becomes even less motivated to get active or get out of bed.
3. Risk For Cancer Decreases
Research has shown that losing weight reduces a person’s risk for certain cancers. Breast, stomach, thyroid, kidney, pancreas and colon cancers are just a few of the potentially deadly diseases linked to obesity. In a study by the American Cancer Society, researchers say current trends of overweight and obesity in the United States may account for 14 percent of all cancer deaths in men and 20 percent of those in women.
4. Potential Heart Problems Drop
The more you weigh, the more likely you are to have a heart attack or suffer from heart disease. The good news is heath experts say even losing five percent of your weight significantly reduces heart problems down the road. Along with worrying about your heart’s health, extra pounds can increase your chance for diabetes, a stroke and even high cholesterol.
