The study was carried out at the University of Glasgow’s Institute of Health and Wellbeing. They investigated whether obese people with a normal metabolic profile are healthy or whether they too are at risk for obesity-related health problems.

According to a new study, a normal metabolic profile does not mean a person with obesity is healthy (called metabolically healthy obesity) because they are at higher risk for diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and respiratory disease.

The results of the study were published in the journal “Diabetologia” published by the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD).

Dr. Frederick Ho and colleagues from the University of Glasgow’s Institute of Health and Wellbeing in Glasgow, UK conducted the study. They looked at whether people with obesity and a normal metabolic profile are healthy.

Over 300 million people are expected to be obese worldwide, and if current trends continue, that number would likely reach 1 billion people by 2030, which is 20% of the world’s adult population.

Obesity is linked to the current global epidemics of type 2 diabetes (T2D), high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and many other major health problems.

On the other hand, a UK study in its latest results said that eating before exercise increases blood sugar and provides fuel to the body to increase the intensity and length of an exercise.

It also prevents you from getting tired or dizzy.

The study looked at 30 obese or overweight men and found that those who exercised before breakfast burned twice as much fat as men who had breakfast before exercise. This is because exercising without fuel forces the body to focus on stored carbohydrates.
