Did you know that being overweight is now ‘the norm’ for Australians? The latest health statistics has concluded that currently in Australia, 63% of adults are overweight or obese: that is certainly not a statistic that we should be proud of! If you are currently in the overweight / obese category, you may think the whole process of losing weight is just ‘too hard’ and are a little daunted by the enormity of committing to a weight loss program – well you shouldn’t be because just losing a LITTLE bit of weight can make a HUGE difference to your health.
That’s right – losing just 5kg can have a massively positive impact on your current state of health. For example, the risk of heart disease is lowered with every kilogram that you lose. Losing just 5kg can actually lower your risk of heart disease by up to as 25%.
Losing as little as 5kg can make a massive difference to your health
It’s not just risk of heart disease that can be lowered by weight loss: the incidence of developing diabetes is also lowered as is damage to joints caused by osteoarthritis. It is estimated that if you are overweight and lose just 5kg, that there is between 13-30kg less pressure on the knee joint with every step that you take! Of course, the nearer you are to your ‘ideal’ weight, the less likely it is that osteoarthritis will develop in the first place.
