Obesity health risks

Obesity is associated with a number of health risks including the leading causes of death in the U.S. and worldwide, such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and some types of cancer. It is also associated with reproductive and respiratory function; memory and mood issues; poorer mental health; reduced quality of life; and shortened lifespan.
