| Overweight is one of the fastest growing threats to human health around the globe. USA apart from being the most advanced country in the world, it is one of the “heaviest” country in the world too. 58 % of the Americans are over weight and every year 3,00,000 people in USA are dying because of Over weight and it’s related complications. That means every two minutes one person is dying in USA because of over weight and it’s related complications . This is next only to the deaths due to Smoking in USA. Every year American Government is spending approximately US $ 265 billion ( U . S Dollars ) to treat the over weight and their associated health disorders.

Obesity is increasingly recognized as harmful to the length and quality of life and indeed it is often the underlying cause of life-threatening diseases in their own right ; such as diabetes, coronary artery disease, hypertension and stroke ( paralysis ) above all knee joint pains, ankle pain and back pain. Over weight is known to be the reason behind snoring while sleeping in many a number of cases and a mere 10 % of weight reduction is known to reverse these complications and save the life or improve the quality of life.
But the golden rule remains same i.e “ It is always desirable for every individual to be within his or her acceptable weight limits". |
