Cholesterol Check: Navigating the Link Between Obesity and Heart Health in Kenya.

By NBC 

In Kenya, the battle against obesity and its impact on heart health is gaining attention. With high cholesterol being a major concern linked to obesity, weight loss procedures like the gastric balloon and bariatric surgery are emerging as effective solutions.

The Critical Link Between Weight and Cholesterol:

Obesity significantly increases the risk of high cholesterol – a silent yet dangerous condition. Statistically, individuals with obesity are twice as likely to have high cholesterol compared to those at a healthy weight. This excess cholesterol can clog arteries and lead to severe heart problems.

The Startling Truth About High Cholesterol:

  • It’s estimated that high cholesterol contributes to 29% of coronary heart disease globally.
  • In Kenya, over 25% of adults suffer from high cholesterol, with a significant portion also grappling with obesity-related issues.

Lifestyle Changes: The Foundation for Health:

Transitioning to a healthier diet and incorporating regular exercise is the foundational step towards managing weight and cholesterol. These lifestyle adjustments are key in reducing the risk of heart disease.

Success Stories from Kenya:

From Nairobi to Mombasa, Kenyans are experiencing life-changing benefits from weight loss procedures. Their stories reflect significant improvements in cholesterol levels and overall heart health.
