Obesity

What is Obesity?

Obesity is someone with additional fat—around 20% or more above standard weight, or his/her body mass index (BMI) is over 30. There are many causes of obesity, including DNA, lack of exercise, job with little movement, excess sugar or salt consumption, insufficient amount of sleep, a slow working metabolism, medical conditions such as a thyroid issue, serious lack of motivation, and many other possible causes.

Obesity is a serious health condition that may increase the risk of other more severe health problems, including stroke, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, diabetes, and kidney and liver failure.

Garcinia cambogia extract is a fat burning supplement that won’t necessarily eliminate symptoms associated with obesity. However, the natural compound, hydroxycitric acid in garcinia cambogia may assist with weight-loss efforts by raising serotonin levels, curbing appetite, lowering cholesterol levels, and inhibiting the conversion of carbohydrates into fat stores.

Individuals with obesity often experience:

• Chronic fatigue
• Depression
• Hopelessness
• Unsettled mood
• Restless nights
• Heightened stress levels
• Lack of motivation
• Lower concentration
