obesity and diabetes
Obesity refers to a medical condition characterized by excessive accumulation of body fat, which can significantly affect an individual's overall health and increase the risk of various health problems. Diabetes, on the other hand, is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels due to either insufficient production of insulin (Type 1 diabetes) or the body's ineffective use of insulin (Type 2 diabetes). It can lead to various complications and significantly impact one's quality of life.
