3What is Obesity ?
An obese person has accumulated so much body fat
that it might have a negative effect on their
health. If a person's bodyweight is at least 20
higher than it should be, he or she is considered
obese. If your Body Mass Index (BMI) is between
25 and 29.9 you are considered overweight. If
your BMI is 30 or over you are considered
obese. In general, BMI is a statistical
measurement derived from your height and weight.
Although it is considered to be a useful way to
estimate healthy body weight, it does not measure
the percentage of body fat. The BMI measurement
can sometimes be misleading - a muscleman may
have a high BMI but have much less fat than an
unfit person whose BMI is lower. However, in
general, the BMI measurement can be a useful
indicator for the 'average person'.

excess blood sugar. This occurs when the
pancreas, an organ in the abdomen, fails to
produce enough of the hormone insulin. Insulin
plays a critical role in metabolism - how cells
in the body use nutrients, especially glucose, to
produce energy. There are three major forms of
diabetes, Type 1, Type 2 and gestational diabetes.
