Have Belly Fat? Chances Are You'll Get Asthma...
Dear Reader,
You've heard the warnings about abdominal fat - more and more research is finding that this is some of the most dangerous fat you can carry. It looks horrible, but worse yet, it also appears to up your risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, some cancers, dementia and even degenerative diseases like arthritis and spondylosis. New research appearing in the journal Allergy now adds debilitating asthma to that list.
Asthma and obesity have both been rising over the last few decades, and many studies have found an association between obesity and asthma according to Dr. Jun Ma of California's Palo Alto Medical Research Institute.
To study the link, Ma led a team that examined 4,500 men and women who took part in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) during the years 2005-2006. The survey was designed to get an assessment of the health and nutritional status of adults and children in the U.S. and is unique in that it combines interviews with physical examinations.
One third of the NHANES respondents used for this work were overweight, another third obese - holding true to the obesity epidemic identified in the United States.
In terms of health status, 41% of the subjects had some type of allergy; another 8% had been diagnosed with asthma. These two factors are important because allergy and asthma are considered to be related in certain individuals.
The team found that 12% of the obese subjects had asthma, compared to 6% of the normal weight subjects. The likelihood of asthma went up as the body mass index, BMI, rose and waist circumference got larger.
In fact, the risk of asthma was more than tripled for the heaviest of the subjects compared to those of normal weight.

Have Belly Fat? Chances Are You'll Get Asthma... Continued...
No one knows why the association exists. Some experts believe that the system
wide, low-grade inflammation that happens to the obese may be a part of the picture.
Others believe that resistance to blood sugar regulating insulin (it goes up
the more weight you carry) is the explanation for the link. It's true that insulin
resistance often comes before the onset of diabetes. Incidentally, 37% of the
subjects were either diabetic or had insulin resistance, though researchers stress
that insulin resistance is not responsible for the relationship, nor was allergy
related to this condition or even carrying extra weight.
Dr. Ma is quick to point out there are many other potential reasons for the link
between obesity and asthma. The relationship is complex and researchers are just
starting to understand it.
Losing fat in the midsection area is tough... but not impossible. The good news
is that the dangerous visceral fat that you can't see responds well to a program
of diet and regular exercise.
A diet rich in unprocessed, natural foods as well as a daily, moderate intensity
exercise program is the effective way to do the trick. Spot exercises such as
sit ups can't work alone, you'll still need to make changes in your overall intake
of calories.
Remember, that fat took a while to accumulate, and it will take some time to
lose, but even dropping a few pounds makes a huge difference to your health.
To your good health,
