THE ART OF FAT LOSS(An Insight)

📍How serious is the issue of obesity? Well, The World Obesity Atlas 2022, published by the World Obesity Federation, predicts that one billion people globally, including 1 in 5 women and 1 in 7 men, will be living with obesity by 2030. The numbers in Africa are expected to triple by 2030; from 8 million (2010) to 27 million men (2030) and 26 million (2010) to 74 million women (2030). Asia and Africa are home to nearly three-quarters of all overweight children worldwide. In Africa, the number of overweight children under 5 has increased by nearly 24% since 2000, and almost half of children under 5 who were overweight or obese in 2019 live in Asia. So, how serious is the issue of obesity? You'll agree with me that it is a matter of urgency. 📍What must we do? The simple answer?. Lose fat. The complex? Lose fat easily, naturally and efficiently. 📍What are the benefits of fat loss for an obese/overweight person? There are a number of benefits to losing fat, especially for someone who is obese. Losing fat can improve cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of developing diabetes. It can also improve quality of life by increasing energy levels, improving mood, and reducing the risk of depression. In addition, fat loss can lead to a reduction in joint pain and an improvement in sleep quality. Finally, it can lead to an increased lifespan. 📍How can we lose fat? Fat loss is easy, once you master the art. It is a slow process, when done naturally. Skipping meals, intermittent fasting, drinking "slimming" teas, going on weight loss diets, doing more cardio amongst others usually exacerbate weight gain. What then can we do?. Take my word for it, we can lose fat by reducing sugar and calorie intake drastically, doing more movements i.e exercising for at least 30 minutes per day(walking or running may be your "easiest" option), drinking plenty of water(about 2 litres or less per day), sleeping well(6-8 hours daily), eating more fibre , protein and vegetables and by controlling our portions(using smaller plates). Eating healthy, nutient-dense foods and engaging in regular physical activities are the best ways to attain long-term, sustainable fat loss. 📍What have we learnt so far? Obesity is common and the rate is increasing rapidly. We all can attain fat loss although at different rates. We can improve our cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes amongst many others through fat loss. We can lose fat by eating healthy, inexpensive, nutritious foods and getting regular physical activity.
