CHAPTER 01:

UNRAVELING THE OBESITY EPIDEMIC

Obesity has emerged as one of the most pressing health challenges of our time, affecting millions of people worldwide. In this chapter, we will delve into the complexities of this modern epidemic, exploring the underlying factors that contribute to its rise and impact on society.

Obesity, characterized by excessive body fat accumulation, is not simply a matter of appearance; it is a multifaceted health issue with far-reaching consequences. To understand this epidemic, it is essential to examine the factors driving its prevalence.

One of the central ideas put forth by the author is the role of insulin in weight gain. According to this perspective, obesity is not solely the result of excessive calorie consumption or a lack of willpower but is deeply intertwined with the hormonal regulation of our bodies. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, plays a pivotal role in the storage of excess energy as fat. When we consume carbohydrates and sugars, our blood sugar levels rise, prompting the release of insulin to regulate them.
