More than heart disease or cancer, the risk of dementia often creates much greater anxiety in the patients I see. Obesity The relationship between obesity and dementia is not straightforward and likely depends on when a person becomes obese and also whether there is significant metabolic dysfunction with the obesity.

For every 10% increase in ultra-processed food consumption, the risk of cancer increases by 10% 2. The relationship to dying from any cause or cancer is not subtle. If you take people with obesity and feed them only ultra-processed food for a year, what do you think happens? Probably not. They lose weight. How much weight?

Obesity was associated with a lower risk of all-cause death (HR 0.81, 95%CI 0.79-0.84). CAD and valvular heart disease were associated with a higher risk of all-cause and CV mortality, but not non-CV mortality, whereas cancer and muscolo-skeletal disease increased the risk of non-CV mortality.

Unhealthy lifestyle habits, genetics, obesity, and other risk factors can contribute to cardiac disease at any stage of life. It affects more women than all types of cancer combined. While it is true that the risk of cardiovascular disease increases with age, it can strike people of all ages, including young adults and even children.

That appears to be somewhat true—LaKe administration suppressed free fatty acids (FFAs) and elevated the appetite-suppressing compound N-L-lactoyl-phenylalanine (Lac-Phe), which has potential applications in obesity treatment. Importantly, the compound appeared well-tolerated, even at high doses, with no signs of toxicity in rats.
