Over Weight & Obese people with coexistent weight related problems (such as heart disease, high blood cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure and shortness of breath) who lose some weight have a significantly increased life-span.
Any weight reduction is beneficial and a loss of between 0.5 to 9 kg has been shown to reduce the chance of early death by 20%.
Weight loss alone improves the outcome of the following coexistent diseases:
* diabetes
* high blood pressure
* high blood cholesterol
* weight bearing joint damage and pain
Weight loss of 5-10% in those people who already have non-insulin dependent diabetes improves the blood sugar levels and reduces the requirement for medication.
In those with high blood pressure a weight loss of just 1 kg reduces a fall in pressure of 1-2mm Hg. Further weight reduction produces additional incremental falls8.
Weight loss in the obese also results in reductions in blood levels of cholesterols.
Clearly there are also benefits in the improvement of self-esteem, well-being and mood as well as breathing and pain in weight-bearing joints.
