If it is higher, it is considered overweight and if the BMI is 40 or more, then it is called extreme obesity (morbid obesity).<\/span><\/p>\n Taking action to lose weight and improve your health can be a bit overwhelming and feel difficult.<\/span> The key to start losing weight is to find the <\/span>ideal<\/b> specialist<\/b> who can treat the condition, this is especially important because it will be easier to improve your lifestyle.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” pix_padding_top=”pix-top-no-padding” pix_padding_bottom=”pix-bottom-no-padding” gradient_colors=”%5B%7B%7D%5D”][vc_column][vc_row_inner gradient_colors=”%5B%7B%7D%5D”][vc_column_inner el_class=”sub-max” width=”8\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1544481029934{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][common_title title=”\u00bfQu\u00e9 es la obesidad? ” position=”text-left” show_decor=”off” color=”white-heading”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” pix_padding_top=”pix-top-no-padding” pix_padding_bottom=”pix-bottom-no-padding” gradient_colors=”%5B%7B%7D%5D” el_class=”cont-img-blog”][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”10\/12″][vc_single_image image=”20578″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” pix_padding_top=”pix-top-no-padding” pix_padding_bottom=”pix-bottom-no-padding” gradient_colors=”%5B%7B%7D%5D” el_class=”cont-overflow-none display-inline-block position-initial”][vc_column][vc_row_inner gradient_colors=”%5B%7B%7D%5D”][vc_column_inner width=”5\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”7\/12″][vc_column_text el_class=”simple-text-bg-gray”]Para la Secretar\u00eda de Salud, el significado de obesidad es la acumulaci\u00f3n excesiva de grasa […] […]<\/p>\nWhat is losing weight and why is it important?<\/h2>\n
