Health Risks Linked to Obesity
Obesity is a term that means you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher. It makes you more likely to have conditions including:
Heart disease and stroke
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Some cancers
Gallbladder disease and gallstones
Osteoarthritis
Gout
Breathing problems, such as sleep apnea (when a person stops breathing for short episodes during sleep) and asthma
Not everyone who is obese has these problems. The risk rises if you have a family history of one of those conditions.
