Obesity is a chronic disease
Obesity is not just an aesthetic issue but a serious chronic disease nowadays. Without causing any physical discomfort, obesity silently affects the functioning of internal organs, leading to various complications that threaten the health of a significant portion of the global population.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over a billion people worldwide are identified as overweight, with at least three hundred million classified as obese. In Malaysia, half of the adult population faces weight issues and obesity as well as children. This constitutes a global public health challenge, with an underlying cascade of obesity-related chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and hypertension.
Research indicates that fat cells are not just storage depots for energy; they are active endocrine organs that secrete a range of hormones and bioactive substances. Imbalances secretion of these substances can lead to insulin resistance that triggers diabetes. Furthermore, obesity is closely linked to chronic inflammatory processes which increase the risks of cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers.
Cardiovascular diseases are closely associated with obesity. The accumulation of excess fat, especially abdominal fat, increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. Data suggests that the risk of heart disease in obese individuals is more than twice that of those with normal weight. For every 0.1 increase in the waist-to-hip ratio, the risk of premature death increases by 34% for men and 23% for women.
Moreover, high blood pressure is another chronic disease closely linked to obesity. Multiple studies show that being overweight puts extra burden on the heart, making high blood pressure the norm. The risk of hypertension in obese individuals is significantly higher than in those with normal weight, providing a robust foundation for considering obesity as a chronic disease.
Today, let's embark on a healthy weight loss journey together with Stolle.
During the weight loss process, insufficient intake of protein can lead to a decrease in immunoglobulins, causing a decline in immunity. Therefore, it's crucial to ensure an adequate daily intake of protein.
Drinking Stolle ImmuNuPlus daily not only provides high-quality protein and the unique nutrients inherent in milk but also includes special immune protein spheres as natural antibodies, directly supporting the body's immune system.
You can also complement it with Stolle Vigor Plus, a product primarily composed of turmeric. In recent years, numerous studies have discovered that curcumin, a compound in turmeric, possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and even promotes fat metabolism. Moderately extracting curcumin can help with blood circulation, boost metabolism, aid in generating body heat during exercise, and enhance fat-burning efficiency.
Vigor Plus is formulated with highly pure curcumin extract, coupled with dual absorption factors and a unique golden formula conforming to antioxidants, accelerating metabolism, and actively eliminating waste from the body.
Preventing obesity is not just about having a better appearance but also about steering clear of the threats posed by numerous chronic diseases, welcoming a healthier and more fulfilling life.
