Weight loss and health are irrefutably linked. Doctors all agree. There aren't 1 in 4 doctors that agree. There aren't 2 in 4 doctors that agree. There aren't 3 in 4 doctors that agree. You see because "all" typically refers to, like, 4 in 4 doctors. And they're all in agreement. And doctors really don't do that very often. They are usually a pretty contentious bunch. But they'll all tell you the same thing: losing weight can greatly benefit your overall health.
Some people aren't obese, but they're overweight. And they're not off the hook. Being overweight also has negative health ramifications. Overweight individuals should carefully consider opportunities to lose weight. Obese people can and should take advantage of weight loss opportunities, but so should overweight people. In some cases it can even be more important for an overweight person to lose weight than an obese person. This situation occurs when an overweight individual also has a family medical history attached to their genetic stamp that leaves them at higher risks for weight related conditions/diseases.
For example...an overweight individual who has a family medical history presenting a genetic weakness for cardiac disease or diabetic issues should definitely make losing weight a high priority. It should be a priority not only because it will increase their overall health, but because their overall risks for common illnesses and diseases directly related to weight are increased because of their family history. People who are overweight and ALSO have a an issue with either high blood pressure or high cholesterol should do everything they can to decrease their weight and reach a healthy weight level as soon as possible. High blood pressure and high cholesterol are often evident before a larger problem presents. They're like hazard lights. And they are warning people to lose weight...and lose it fast.
A individual's body shape can be another easily recognized risk factor for weight related illnesses, conditions and diseases. The overall shape of the body can be indicative of higher risks for weight related medical conditions in general. Some individuals have what is referred to as an apple shaped body. These people tend to carry any of their extra weight right around their waist. People with an apple shape have higher risks for cardiac disease and diabetic issues and cancer than others of the same weight who are also overweight, but have a pear shaped body. Pear shaped people who have extra weight to cart around tend to carry their extra weight around their hips.
Overweight individuals can benefit from even a small amount of weight loss when it comes to health risks and overall general health. Even 5 to 10 pounds can offer a significant change in the state of health of an at risk individual. It can be especially apparent in those trying to lose weight in order to decrease their blood pressure and/or cholesterol level.
People who are overweight are often found running straight toward the prescription HCG weight loss plan; particularly in the last year. The HCG plan has become wildly popular in the last year or two due to the increased availability of the required HCG supplies and supplementary dieting elements. It offers the chance to lose drastic amounts of weight in a short amount of time. The amount of time required varies depending on the amount of weight that needs to be lost. People can agree to a 15 day program, a 26 day program or a 40 day program. Average weight loss is typically the deciding factor for which program people choose since dedicated dieters average one to two lbs. of weight loss per day.
