Obesity and your health, obesity is more than just a cosmetic concern — it is a serious medical condition that can affect nearly every system in your body. In today’s world, obesity has become one of the most common yet underestimated health challenges. It doesn’t just change how you look — it directly impacts how your body functions, increasing the risk of numerous chronic and life-threatening diseases.
In this article, we will explore how obesity affects your overall health, which conditions it can lead to, and how obesity surgery (bariatric surgery) can offer a safe, long-term solution for people struggling with excess weight.
Obesity is not just “being overweight.” It is a chronic and progressive disease caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Carrying excess body fat over time puts enormous stress on vital organs and can lead to a chain reaction of health complications.
One of the most common effects of obesity is insulin resistance, where your body stops responding properly to insulin. Over time, this can lead to type 2 diabetes, a serious condition that affects millions worldwide. Uncontrolled diabetes can damage your kidneys, eyes, nerves, and cardiovascular system.
Excess weight significantly increases the risk of:
The heart is forced to work harder to pump blood throughout the body, which can weaken it over time and lead to heart failure.
Obesity can also cause sleep apnea and other breathing problems. Fat deposits around the neck and upper airway can make breathing difficult, disrupting sleep and reducing oxygen flow to vital organs.
Carrying extra weight places constant stress on joints, particularly in the knees, hips, and spine. This leads to chronic pain, arthritis, and reduced mobility, often preventing people from living an active lifestyle.
The emotional burden of obesity is just as serious as the physical one. Many patients struggle with low self-esteem, depression, and social anxiety due to weight-related stigma. Addressing mental health is an essential part of obesity treatment.
Obesity can cause hormonal imbalances, leading to infertility, sexual dysfunction, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. In men, it can contribute to lower testosterone levels and erectile dysfunction.
When lifestyle changes and medical treatments are not enough, bariatric (obesity) surgery offers one of the most effective and lasting solutions for weight loss and health improvement.
At Sava Clinic, our expert surgical team performs procedures such as:
These procedures work by reducing stomach size, limiting food intake, and balancing hormonal signals related to hunger and metabolism.
