Morbid obesity is a metabolic disorder that is crippling the health of millions across the globe. Agree or disagree, being overweight is not an indication of a healthy person, and kids, too, are not an exception. ‘Cuteness overload’ may sound too good to hear, but in reality, it is eating into your health!
Obesity, or being overweight, way above your height, is the primary source behind various comorbidities, including Hypertension or high blood pressure, Diabetes Mellitus, hyperlipidaemia or elevated cholesterol, PCOS, infertility, fatty liver, chronic bone conditions, etc.
If not addressed on time, obesity can affect the functioning of vital organs, including the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys. If you are obese, you may be at risk of cardiovascular diseases, lung and kidney conditions, and cancer.
