What is a possible result of low levels of activity caused by being overweight?

Health
1 answer:
Rama09 [41]4 years ago

Answer:

Answer below.

Explanation:

To know if a person is overweight we calculate their Body Mass Index which is their weight in kilogrammes divided by the square of their height in meters.

Being overweight is a precursor to obesity. Living a sedentary lifestyle while being overweight is bad for your health. It increases the levels of bad fat in the body and this can lead to insulin resistance by the body cells causing sugar to build up in the blood and ultimately leading to diabetes disease.

Low level of physical activity while overweight is also bad for your joints as it puts too much weight on them and might cause arthritis.

Increased levels of unhealthy fats in the body can cause them to block the small vessels circulating blood and this can lead to stroke and hypertension.

To prevent these complications, people should make efforts to control their weight by applying various lifestyle changes. Such changes as regular exercises, brisk walking , using the stairs, cutting down on high calorie foods and eating healthy helps bring weight to normal physiological levels.

Do you think it is possible to lose weight and stay physically fit without reciving proper nutrition
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

I don't think it is possible.

Explanation:

You can loose weight by not consuming anything (not receiving proper nutrition) and it can be damaging to the body. Also without the proper nutrients is would be hard to maintain fitness because you would lack energy and could get more cramps.

Starving (another way not to get nutrition) to lose weight makes your body more likely, in the long run, to replenish fat. It uses the new basal metabolic rate from starvation mode. Lean individuals were more likely to gain more fat after starvation
