All excess without a bouquet of diseases is deceiving
At the beginning of the week, a very pleasant man came to my appointment, friendly, successful. In the prime of life - 47 years old, weight 121.5 kg with 179 cm height. Came from afar.
He has no complaints, and the excess weight worries only aesthetically. I made a bioimpedance analysis, examined the patient and questioned carefully.
And I came to the conclusion - this is metabolically healthy obesity, the same beast that is rarely found in our pampas. At least, people with such data rarely go to doctors, which is logically explainable.
Formally, it is the second stage of obesitybut no signs of metabolic syndrome.
Particularly noteworthy (see photo, I hope you can make out there) high phase angle - the upper limit of the norm, this is evidence of impressive endurance.
It would seem to live and rejoice. But no.
What are the dangers of metabolically healthy obesity?
A person with metabolically healthy obesity is very much like a train traveling on an unfinished bridge - at some point the rails will run out and everything will fall down.
And you can get everything in one day: pain, doctors, unpleasant diagnoses, examinations, the need to take medications, and so on. No options - healthy fat man is only for a while.
Therefore, I advised this smart and successful person to get on the rails of a healthy lifestyle. As long as a large body obeys, does not bring discomfort, it is necessary to bring it into good shape. Drive off fat, pump up muscles. It will not be difficult, because the endurance is great, and entrepreneurs do not lack willpower.
I hope that in six months I will see him at the door of my clinic and do not recognize him - that is how much he will get younger.
