Five lifestyles appear to play a major role in morbidity and mortality with major diseases. These include smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise, diet, and body weight. Li et al. using data from the Nurses’ Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow-up Study estimated that adherence to all five healthy lifestyles increases the lifespan at age 50 by 14 years in females and 12.2 years in males when compared with those with zero low-risk factors. Excess body weight with a BMI of >30 is classified as obesity. Obesity is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO), along with several National and International medical and scientific societies as a disease. It has become a worldwide epidemic and has deleterious effects on most major health disorders, such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and cancer. Obesity is also interlinked with other health lifestyles. This relationship is discussed in this manuscript.
