Weight loss program - Why you need ?

Many studies have been undertaken, to study the effects of obesity on health. The conclusions of these studies are almost on the same lines. Obesity and overweight affect the general health , in many different ways.

A recent study, undertaken by researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health , has found the strong association between obesity and smoking to erectile dysfunction, reports Science daily news. Both smoking and obesity were associated with a higher risk of the development of Erectile dysfunction ( ED ). ( Obesity was defined as a body mass index of more than 30. The body mass index is weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in
meters ). Regular physical activity appeared to have a significant impact on lowering the risk of ED.


Such studies would not have meant anything to me, when I was young. The young tend to think that the youth , energy, vitality are for ever. But it is not ! Your parents will vouch for it. Many diseases , which are supposed to be ‘old age disease ’ , strike the young now. Even the children are not exception , as the obesity in children has become a major concern worldwide . So act today, before it catches up with you.

Choose some weight loss programs , that is best for you.
