            Over-nutrition  is  a  condition  of excessive
            nutrients in the body.  Over-nutrition is also
            not good for health. It invites different prob-

            in the body. As a result, it increases the risk
            of heart, lung, liver and kidney-related problems.

            If we consume high-fat and high-sugar foods, our bodycannot use all
            calories. This extra calorie is stored as fat in the body. This condi-
            tion of storing extra energy is obesity. Obesity is caused by eating too
            much, but inoving too little. Eating junk foods,  oily food,  fried food
            items, and sweet food items are also the causes of it.


            Obesity causes overweight compared to the average age and height.
            Breathing problems, high blood pressure, and feeling tired are the
            effects  of obesity.  It can be  controlled by eating vegetables, fruits,
            and legumes. It is better to avoid oily and sweet food  items as well
            as processed and packaged foods . It can be addressed by adopting a
            healthy lifestyle such as regular physical exercise and yoga practice.
