Notes

The scientific journal Nature Medicine published an international consensus on the case of being overweight. More than 100 institutions signed, including one in our country (Brazil) Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery (SBCBM). After reviewing the studies, about 36 authors involved with the article found that prejudice bothers overweight people, making it difficult to access medicines and treatments. This can lead to breaking breaking news such as suicide.

As I said in the last paragraph of the last sentence, fatphobia can lead to health problems like high levels of anxiety, low self-esteem, social isolation, stress, drug use, binge eating, and suicide. But even children and teenagers can suffer much more from bullying than adults themselves. As those who are underage and overweight are more likely to experience social isolation and develop mental disorders such as anxiety and depression.

One of the biggest mental wellness issues of fatphobia can lead to drug use, which typically means no work. The recurring danger of buying the drugs and the pile of debt can lead to homelessness, which means starvation and more. And if you ask for proof on this subject, well, you are living on top of it (Brazil).

Genes account for only 25% of the predisposition to being overweight, while for others the genetic influence is as high as 70% to 80%. Getting a rough idea of ​​how big a role genes play in your weight can be helpful in terms of treating your weight issues. So yes, there is a reason behind why overweight people feel so uncomfortable about being overweight.

It's not what we can do to help them, they have to help themselves. it's not entirely our fault that they are lazy and don't want to do anything to help their physical health. And yes, I understand that it's not entirely their fault that some of us are nature bullies, but to tell the truth who isn't. But there is a possible way to help them, we can give them mental strength, but at the same time guide them to see what they are doing wrong. That's what makes us human, helping but at the same time judging and guiding, that's what keeps us in life.
