Are fat people more at risk than others for"""anything""Health problems???accidents etc etc etc ???

Answer 1

overweight people are at an incresed risk for higher cholesterol. cardiac disease, and arterial disease. not to mention joint problems leading to knee replacements. the risk for falls increases with weight

Answer 2

Any difference from another being puts you at risk statistically from another being's risk, some higher, some lower on an average.

Along with being "overweight" comes risk factors for wearing out of body parts that cannot stand the extra load. The work to be done by weight bearing parts and pumping mechanisms in the body to reach those parts goes up with weight and fat resistance. Some, a few, will bypass those problems. Large people do not fit places that skinnier people can go to and parts don't usually bend to accomodate, so some stress comes from that.

Generally, large people need sedentary work unless they are in wide open spaces where their body is not limited in movement and may need more pay to support the food they need to support their body unless they are growing their own.

Answer 3

They are more at rick for health problems such as high blood pressure, heart attacks,etc. I don't know about accidents, but since they tend to be slower than thin people there is a good possibility they are more prone to accidents.

Answer 4

Yes, as I am a heavy person and my risks are greater for health problems because of my weight. Your weight can cause you to have high blood pressure, increase your chance of diabetes, and heart attack. Obese people put a greater strain on your bodies organs and causes them to work harder than necessary. I have fallen and missed steps and knock things off of tables, have a hard time finding comfortable chairs, also it puts a strain on your joints.

Answer 5

They are more at risk of being called 'fat' and having people make them feel bad.

Answer 6

accidents? like car wrecks? i don't think so. as far as health problems there are too many to count but just a few are: difficulty for doctors during surgery, difficulty recovering from surgeries, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer. that would be enough for me to stay healthy.

Answer 7

I don't know that obese people are more accident prone, but they are certainly more at risk for heart disease and diabetes.

Answer 8

everything,,just being fat is unhealthy and bad for your body and accidents I bet fat people break chairs more often

Answer 9

Answer 10

yes
