Although obese individuals are at greater risk of diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, not all obese people ...

Adipose tissue has the potential to dramatically expand from 3% to 60-70% of the body weight in response to positive energy balances. It can be hypertrophic or hyperplastic in nature.

Results reveal that weight loss has significant effects on cellular processes that are known to affect metabolic health and ...
