'Real-World' Study Finds That Obesity Doubles The Risk Of Conditions Associated With Heart Disease

Diseases of choice.

"Obese patients treated in office-based medical practices were twice as likely as normal-weight patients to develop conditions associated with heart disease, a new study has found.

Researchers evaluated data collected by primary care and other office-based physician practices across the United States for a five-year period to identify whether obese patients developed hypertension, high triglycerides/low HDL, and diabetes more often than patients whose weight was considered normal."

And we must stop paying for this.

Fight back.
