Our diet habit and lifestyles lead to our current body weight and fats situation, and body fats always go hand in hand with obesity. It is normal for obese people to have high percentage of body fats. Surprisingly, some people with normal BMI or slightly overweight also have alarming body fats percentage.
Being overweight always leads to chronic diseases especially cardiovascular issues. In fact, every pound of your body fat contains about 5 thousands feet of blood vessels. If you have 12 extra pounds of fats, your heart will be burdened. It will have to propel blood through some 20 extra miles of blood vessels every 5th of a second. This means the amount of extra strain put on our heart and the circulatory system will eventually cause you some form of diseases such as high blood pressure and heart disease as time goes by.
Why a person has overweight and high body fats percentage issue? Does it due to fats we consume daily in our diet? If this is the case, can we stop taking fats in our daily diet? Is that working to reduce our weight and body fats?
Why We Minimize Fats Intake in Diet?
