Addressing obesity effectively requires a multidisciplinary approach. At Nairobi Fitness Consulting, we believe that a coordinated team of healthcare professionals is essential for comprehensive treatment.
Introduction to Obesity and Its Health Risks
Obesity is a complex health condition characterized by excessive body fat accumulation that can negatively impact health. It is a growing concern worldwide, including in Africa, affecting millions of people. The health risks associated with obesity are significant and varied, often leading to severe complications such as lipid dysfunction, diabetes, heart disease, and more.
Lipid dysfunction, a common consequence of obesity, refers to abnormalities in the levels of lipids (fats) in the blood. This condition can lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases, which are among the leading causes of mortality globally. Other co-morbidities associated with obesity include hypertension, stroke, certain types of cancer, and joint problems.

- Nutritionists: Specialists who create personalized diet plans to promote healthy eating habits and weight loss.
