What is Obesity?
Obesity is a disease caused by excessive accumulation of fat in the body, which has a serious negative impact on overall health. Obesity can lead to a range of health problems, including heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, sleep apnea and some types of cancer. Obesity is usually caused by a combination of genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors.
How is Obesity Treated?
Obesity treatment depends on the individual’s condition and the severity of obesity:
- Diet and Exercise: Healthy diet and regular exercise form the basis of obesity treatment. It is important to limit calorie intake and increase physical activity.
- Drug Treatment: Some obesity patients may be given medications that suppress appetite or reduce fat absorption.
- Surgical Intervention In severe cases of obesity, surgical methods such as stomach reduction (bariatric surgery) can be applied. Gastric bypass, gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy are examples of such surgeries.
