Answer:

at risk of being overweight.

Explanation:

A good body composition refers to the state of having a well-balanced proportion of body fat and non-fat constituents (mass); where the body fat is in a lesser percentage while the non-fat mass such as organs, bones, muscle etc are in a higher percentage. Additionally, an individual can develop a good body composition by exercising properly, eating a well-balanced diet and regularly checking their body mass index (BMI).

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2018), a person with a body mass index (BMI) at the 90th percentile is at risk of being overweight. The body mass index (BMI) of a person can be measured by taking a measurement of his or her height and weight.

In conclusion, fitness experts usually advises everyone to maintain a healthy lifestyle, eat well and judiciously engage in cardiofitness activities or exercises so as to improve well-being, body mass index (BMI), wellness or heart health.

tatuchka [14]

Greg was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes as a result of his high blood sugar and insulin resistance.

<h3>What is Type 2 diabetes?</h3>

It is a condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar (glucose). With type 2 diabetes, the body either doesn't produce enough insulin, or it resists insulin.

Exercise helps counter the effects of type 2 diabetes in several ways. It increases insulin sensitivity, which helps the cells use any available insulin to take up glucose from the blood. Also, when muscle cells contract during exercise, they are able to take in glucose even when insulin is unavailable.

dimulka [17.4K]

The condition characterized by altered metabolism, immune function and mental health due to low calorie intake is Relative energy deficiency in sport (RED-S).

RED-S is a deficiency condition when the potential of the person to do some work is inhibited due to poor intake of calorie or nutrition. It is similar to anorexia nervosa condition. While sports require high energy, proper intake of healthy food is very important. Metabolic rate and energy demand of the body is negatively affected in this condition. This situation emerges when athletes are stressed to keep body lean and fit and they shift to low diet for achieving it. It is a misconception that fit body can be achieved by low intake of food, rather than working hard physically. RED-S signifies energy imbalance in the body. It is a kind of eating disorder faced by many people today.
