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.

effects of obesity. It can be controlled by eating vegetables, fruits,

as processed and packaged foods . It can be addressed by adopting a
healthy lifestyle such as regular physical exercise and yoga practice.
