Obesity is fundamental to elevating mortality and morbidity rate associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). A person\u2019s body mass index (BMI) is directly proportional to their risk of CVD and high blood pressure. Which can further lead to:<\/p>\n

\n
• A stroke<\/li>\n
• Myocardial infarction or heart attack<\/li>\n
• Arterial aneurism (weakening of an artery that might lead to a rupture and heavy internal bleeding in severe cases)<\/li>\n
• Heart failure or sudden cardiac death<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  It is essential to understand why obese people run at a daunting risk of such cardiovascular diseases:<\/p>\n

  \n
  • We all know that obesity alters cholesterol levels in the body; it increases cholesterol and triglyceride levels. But what we are commonly unaware of is that- obesity can reduce the amount of good cholesterol in the body. High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are the good cholesterol your body needs to reduce the bad, useless cholesterol, lowering the risk of heart diseases.<\/li>\n
  • Obese people are at a higher risk of high blood pressure issues resulting in a cardiac arrest. They require more blood to supply nutrients and oxygen to the body. Also, they need more pressure to move this blood around, collectively leading to high blood pressure.<\/li>\n
  • While obesity can directly cause CVD can indirectly lead to heart dysfunction by causing other health problems such as diabetes. As per the American Heart Association, people with diabetes are 2 to 4 times more prone to heart-related risks. And it lists diabetes as one of the seven major controllable factors in reducing heart risks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    To reduce such risks, remove the cause. Bariatric surgery<\/a> is the best way to shed excess weight. It reduces the stomach\u2019s capacity to hold food. Either by malabsorption or by a combination of gastric restriction and malabsorption. It can decrease mortality due to CAD by 56% and overall mortality by 40%.<\/p>\n

    Thus, once you opt for surgery, you\u2019ll not only combat obesity but also risk factors of heart-related diseases and diabetes. Know your BMI<\/a> and talk to an expert at- 6232012342.<\/p>\n
