Medical Benefits of Weight Loss
Losing weight is not all about looking good or being sexier, although they are important. Its biggest benefit goes beyond physical appearances. Working with a Weight Loss Doctor in The Woodlands and getting the results you want gives you the following medical benefits of weight loss:
- Avoid Type 2 Diabetes – Being obese puts a person at risk for type 2 diabetes. Carrying excess weight makes it difficult for cells to respond to insulin and makes it harder for the sugar to move into cells. Weight loss can prevent the onset of diabetes.
- Maintain a healthy heart – According to studies, excess body fat leads to a rise in blood pressure. Because there is a narrowing of arteries, it increases the risk of heart attacks as well. As weight is lost, blood pressure is relieved in the body.
- Improved sleep – Overweight people tend to snore a lot. Losing weight reduces the amount of fatty tissue in the back of the throat and decreases snoring. Maintaining a healthy weight encourages better-quality sleep, and reduces the risk of developing sleep apnea.
