So what exactly leads to an increase in body fat? Sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercises are two of the major causes. Mindless eating of junk foods that are rich in oil leads to deposition of excess fat, especially around the abdomen. When this body fat which could have been burnt through exercises, fails to get churned out, it raises the risks of developing several other diseases.

Here is a list of a few diseases that excess body fat can cause. Take a look.
1. Heart Disease:
The fat that accumulates around the body affects the functioning of the heart. The heart fails to pump the blood normally and this in turn leads to several heart problems.
2. High Blood Pressure:
When the body fat increases, this leads to an increase in the pressure for the blood to move around. This in turn causes high blood pressure.
3. Diabetes:
When the fat, especially the fat around the abdomen increases it inhibits the insulin from working and this leads to diabetes.
4. Cancer:
When the body fat increases it affects the production of hormones and the growth of cells. This increases the risk of several types of cancers like breast cancer, colon cancer, etc.
5. Fatty Liver Disease:
When the fat builds up around the liver, it is termed as the fatty liver disease. This affects the functioning of the liver.
6. Breathing Difficulty:
When the body fat gets deposited, especially around the stomach, it pushes the chest wall and the diaphragm, thus causing the lungs to fill with air. It causes difficulty in breathing.
7. Joint & Knee Pain:
When the body fat increases it also leads to an increase in the body weight. This causes more stress on the joints and leads to joint and knee pain.
8. Blood Clots:
When the fat around your belly and the abdomen region increases it affects the blood flow through the deep vein. This also leads to clotting of blood.
