Increased risk of heart disease – Extra weight can lead to higher blood pressure and cholesterol levels, stressing the cardiovascular system.
Higher likelihood of insulin resistance – This can progress to type 2 diabetes if weight continues to rise or if other risk factors are present.
Joint strain – Carrying more weight can put pressure on joints, especially the knees and hips, increasing the risk of osteoarthritis over time.
Sleep issues – Overweight individuals are more prone to sleep apnea and other breathing problems during rest.
Fatty liver disease – Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is more common in people with elevated BMI, even at levels just above normal.
