Kerala [India], November 26: In today's fast-paced society, where lifestyle-related diseases are on the rise, obesity has emerged as a serious health problem. Obesity is more than simply a cosmetic or physical issue; it is a medical problem that can have a substantial influence on one's enti
Since 1975, the number of obese people has nearly tripled, creating a global epidemic. While lifestyle variables such as nutrition and exercise contribute to the development and progression of obesity, scientists have shown that obesity is also linked to intrinsic metabolic abnormalities.
A new study found that obese people are more likely to develop monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), a benign blood condition that usually arises before multiple myeloma.
Obesity, which has been related to cognitive impairment and dementia, is expected to impact up to half of all adults in the United States within the next decade
Higher levels of inflammation in the blood of obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery predict poorer weight loss six months later, according to a study funded by the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR).

Obesity causes many health problems and worsens several chronic illnesses, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, however, some obese people are more susceptible to complications than others.
A recent study found a link between neurodegeneration in obese persons and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, implying that decreasing weight could reduce cognitive decline and lower the incidence of AD.

Researchers find Bariatric surgery lowers risk of heart disease
Obese people with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease after bariatric surgery experienced significantly fewer severe cardiovascular events. The researchers revealed that obese patients are less likely to develop adverse cardiovascu
Specialized channel proteins are possible therapeutic targets for sleep apnea and similar abnormally slow breathing disorders in obese people, suggest Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers who did a study on mice.
