THE CAUSES OF EXCESSIVE WEIGHT

THE CAUSES OF EXCESSIVE WEIGHT

If you eat more nutrients containing energy than you need for your daily activities, for the internal
processes of your body, and for the burning process that maintains the body temperature,
the excessive nutrients can be transformed to fat and stored in the fat depots in your body.
The causes of this occururing, and thus of overweight, are one or more of these factors:

1. Consuming too much fat: Fat is the most energy-rich nutrient, and over-consume will cause
the eccessive fat consumed to be deposited in the body.

2. Consuming too much sugar, starch or other carbohydrates: Carbohydrats are also important
energy sources. Over-consume of carbohydrates will cause the eccess to be converted to fat
and stored in the body.

3 Consuming too much alchohol: Also this substance contains energy, and eccessive consume
results in fat stored in your body.

4 Consuming too much of preprocessed products with added, and often hidden fat or sugar, like
sweet beverages, cakes, ice-cream, fast food and snacks.

5. Eating too much alltogeather: Perhaps your food is not fat- or sugar-laden, but you simply eat too
much alltogeather. Also protein will be converted to fat if it is overconsumed.

6. Irregular eating, like eating much at one time, little at another time, wait long between some meals,
cunsuming huge doses of sugar at some times, no sugar at other times: If you eat irregularly, you can
get an uncontrollable appetite, a swinging blood sugar level, and an abnormal physiology that makes
you deposit fat in your body.

7. A still sitting life with little exercise so that you burn little fat and sugar.

8. Boredom in your daily life: If you do not have much hobbies, or leasure activities, or isolate yourself from
other people, you may suffer form boredom, and eccessive eating may be your way of getting entertainment.

9. The body has some capacity of burning some extra amount of sugar or fat. This capacity may be decreased
because of lack of vitamins and minerals, and because of an unsound diet.

10. An abnormal appetite that urges you to eat far more than you need: This abnormal appetite may originate
from psychological causes, an onsound diet or lack of exercise.
