10 Benefits of Losing Weight
Are you unsatisfied with your appearance? Do you suffer from high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prediabetes or diabetes? You are not alone!
Tupelo Wellness provides medically supervised weight loss to help you achieve your weight loss goals. While looking your best is a great benefit, there are many other benefits to losing weight. Below are 10 benefits of weight loss.
1. Improved energy
Carrying extra body weight requires the body to use more energy. When
someone loses weight their energy improves.
2. Better cardiovascular health
Losing weight improves heart health by reducing pressure on arteries, making the
heart work less, lowering blood pressure. Weight loss also reduces cholesterol.
3. Lowers cancer risk
Obesity increases your risk of developing certain cancers like endometrial, breast, kidney, liver and pancreatic. Researchers believe that inflammation due to visceral fat (fat surrounding vital organs) is to blame.
4. Improved sleep
After losing weight sleep apnea can improve. People tend to sleep through the
night with a higher quality of sleep.
5. Improved mood
Exercise tells the brain to release "feel good" chemicals known as endorphins
leading to an improved mood and positive attitude.
6. Improved blood pressure
The American Heart Association says that each kg (about 2.2 lb) of weight lost can
lead to about 1 mm Hg drop in systolic blood pressure.
7. Improved s*x drive
Weight loss boosts testosterone production leading to a better libido.
8. Decreased joint pain
Less weight means less stress and inflammation on the knees, elbows, and hips.
9. Decreased risk of stroke
Being overweight can increase blood pressure thereby increasing your risk of a
stroke. High blood pressure places strain on your blood vessels making them stiff and more likely to cause a blood clot.
10. Lower diabetes risk
Losing weight can lower risk of diabetes by over half.
