Obesity

Obesity is an accumulation of excessive body fat, which increases your chance of developing various health issues. It is typically caused by overeating and less physical activity. Your body stores a large amount of the consumed food in the form of calories, especially when fat and carbohydrates are ingested in excess. When not burned by physical activities, these extra calories lead to obesity. In some cases, obesity can also result from other factors such as psychological conditions like anxiety and depression, hormonal disorders, and certain medications, namely antidepressants and steroids.
