Body Weight: a Risk Factor for Diabetes and CVD
Excess body weight is a significant risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Increased body fat, particularly around the abdomen, contributes to insulin resistance, raising blood sugar levels and predisposing individuals to diabetes. Additionally, obesity elevates blood pressure and cholesterol, which strains the heart and blood vessels, increasing the risk of CVD. Join us with our experts, Dr. Sanjay Kalra and Dr. Rakesh Gupta, as they discuss weight management strategies through diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes that can reduce these risks and improve overall health outcomes.
