Excess body fat reduction treatment

An excess body fat is the body weight gain through fat tissue deposits. The excess body fat  can be alimentary (caused by overeating and sedentary lifestyle) and endocrine (caused by the disorders in the hormonal system of the organism)

CAUSES OF EXCESS BODY FAT 

There are many causes of the excess body fat, but most often, it is caused by the endocrine or digestivedisorders as well as psychological problems. The endocrine disorders in the endocrine system result in hormonal imbalances, which cause the excess body fat:

• tumors of the pituitary gland;
• problems with adrenal glands;
• Itsenko-Cushing syndrome;

In its turn, the excess body fat becomes the cause of many health issues, which include:

• diabetes type 1;
• high pressure (arterial hypertension);
• infarctions and strokes;
• formation of cholesterol plaques;
• heartburn (GERD);
• erectile dysfunction;
• menstrual disorder;
• cholecystitis.

IS YOUR BODY WEIGHT NORMAL?

The specialist establishes the diagnosis “excess body fat”, but you can independently find out whether there are problems with the weight, estimating the body mass index. For that, it is necessary to divide the weight by the growth (specified in meters) squared. If the value of the resulting figure is less than 25 – there are no problems with the weight; if 25-30 – the overweight is obvious, more than 30 is already the excess body fat.
