obesity and sleep disorders

Obesity refers to an excessive accumulation of body fat that may negatively affect an individual's health. It is commonly measured using body mass index (BMI) and is associated with various medical conditions and health risks. Sleep disorders encompass a range of conditions that disrupt normal sleep patterns, duration, or quality. They can include difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep (insomnia), excessive daytime sleepiness (narcolepsy), abnormal behaviors during sleep (parasomnias), as well as breathing-related sleep disorders like sleep apnea. Both obesity and sleep disorders can have significant impacts on overall well-being and are often interconnected.
