Obesity
Obesity is a growing health concern around the world.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 42% of people in the United States are obese. Body mass index (BMI) is used to track recommended body weight for height. Although there are some flaws in the BMI calculation as it does not take into account muscle mass, it can be a great starting point to see if you are in the appropriate weight range for your height. There is a BMI calculator available on the website to help you determine what your BMI is and what your weight should be to be considered in the healthy weight range.
Obesity can have a grave impact on your overall health. It has been associated with chronic health conditions including type 2 diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease just to name a few. Maintaining a healthy body weight helps to improve your overall health, which can be reflected in your hair. As mentioned earlier, your hair journey is so much more than just hair. This is a chance to regain control over your life by carding for yourself from the inside out.
Make sure to balance your nutrition and exercise to maintain a healthy weight. You will feel better and move better with less weight.
