Weight gain
is not a thing that you can ignore. Sometimes, it might often
indicate some severe health conditions too. The extra kilos are always a
liability, but sudden weight gain is the worst of all. If you are way too
particular about your workout sessions and diet, but wonder why the scale keeps
on hitting high, BEWARE. Something within you is definitely wrong.
To save
yourself from medication and discomfort, switch on your alert mode and act in
accordance. Here we have some of the signs that will save your health from
being hit. Check these out:
Belly fat:
Belly fat or a 'spare
tire,' could be a marker for cardiovascular problems. Research
has found that abdominal weight is directly proportional to the risk of heart
disease. Fat cells in the
abdomen are associated with worsening insulin resistance, which in turn is
associated with high blood pressure, higher cholesterol, and higher risk for
type 2 diabetes mellitus. All of these risk factors increase the risk of heart
disease.
You get Lethargic
One of the medical
reasons that can account for your lethargy could be hypothyroidism. And it may also
be messing with your weight. Hypothyroidism, or low thyroid status, presents
with a slow metabolism leads to weight gain and abnormally high cholesterol
levels.
Difficulty to sleep
People who have poor
quality sleep have higher levels of ghrelin- the hormone that increases appetite.
And lower levels of leptin- the hormone that decreases appetite.
Breathlessness
Symptoms like pain,
aching, stiffness, and swelling in your joints get worsen due to excess weight.
Excess here means in respect to the limit your body permits. ‘Weight gain
and obesity are important risk factors in increasing the risk of osteoarthritis
development in the hands and knees’.
Note: All these signs are seen in
most of the people with heavy weight, but it is an alarm for those who have the
signs in “EXCESS”
So before hitting the
extreme limit, consult the doctor.
