- Obese people put three times their body weight through joints when walking and six times their body weight through their back and legs when using the stairs. This is the biggest cause of hip and knee replacements.
- Body cells are affected by inflammation – producing chemicals which aggravate swelling and slow the healing of muscles and joints.
- Increased inflammation causes liver damage – just like alcoholic liver disease. Together with diabetes and reduced mental capacity, these three diseases will use up all your life savings on medical treatment. You can no longer afford to be fat.
