Obesity
leads to a decrease in life expectancy. Obese people are at increased risk of
cardiovascular events. From a certain degree, obesity also causes respiratory
failure: it increases the risk of accidents during procedures requiring
anesthesia and predisposes to breathing pauses during sleep. (Sleep apnea). The
cancer risk also appears higher in obese. Finally, obesity increases the
frequency of gallstones (especially in women) and aggravates osteoarthritis of
knee and hip.
