Obesity and Metabolic Diseases
Consuming a diet rich in unhealthy fats, excessive calories, and sugars, combined with a lack of regular physical activity, significantly increases the likelihood of developing metabolic syndrome. Individuals carrying excess weight are prone to insulin resistance, where the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar struggles to effectively transport it into cells for energy. This insulin resistance results in elevated blood sugar levels, a key indicator of type 2 diabetes.
