In the case if both parents are obese, the percentage goes up to 50-70%.

One of the most representative reasons of obesity is overeating. Each food has its unique energy called calorie. Overeating means eaten calorie is more than consumed calorie.

Based on this, adding 10% of 63kg up to 63 kg, which is 69.3kg is regarded as normal, and over 20% which is 75.6kg will be regarded as obesity.

The reason why salty foods bring obesity is not related with calories but related with a water density of the body. If you take salty foods a lot, it required more water, reaching to gaining weight eventually.

9. Stress and Obesity

People, who gain weight from getting stressed or strained, tend to have vigor and fever going up to his face or chest. In this process, if fever goes up to stomach, it makes one keep feeling hungry and overeat which becomes a reason of obesity. Especially, the one is likely to prefer high-calorie foods such as alcohol, meat, fat foods and fast foods. And this type of food produces more energy to the stomach, requesting more to eat which becomes a vicious circle.

12. Obesity caused from overeating

One way to lose weight is to change an eating habit. That is, it is necessary to reduce digestion ability of one’s stomach. If the stomach has enough amount of foods it needs, it naturally reduces its appetite. But if one has overeating habit for a long time, he will experience growing digestion ability of stomach.

Moving the bowels once everyday is normal. But if one cannot move the bowels for two to three days, wastes are accumulated inside and become a reason for obesity. Therefore, treating constipation is crucial to prevent from having fever in the body and being obese.

14. Face Obesity

Face and body are related to each other. So, it is common for a tall and grand-shaped person to have a big face. But there are some cases different from this. Some women have small and slim faces, making her overall look as skinny but actually have fat abdomen and lower body. On the other hand, there are some people with big and round faces but ironically with slim and light bodies. That’s because some people tend to gain weights only on their faces, and also some tend to lose weights only on the faces.

15. Obesity on Upper body

There are two types of obesity on upper body. The first one is with abdominal obesity and then the obesity is going up to the upper body. The other one is a typical obesity on upper body with flat abdomen and hips but with obese upper body. These two different types are happened because each person has a different constitutional type.

16. Lower body obesity and Spine & Pelvis

When pelvis is standing or laying down, hip joints are forwarded to the front or the back. So, one space of a thigh expanded and the other space becomes narrow. In terms of obesity on calves, if a balance between pelvis and spine is broken, there can be symptoms of extremely developed muscles or of obesity.

17. Right body shapes followed by Sasang Constitutional Types can reduce fats

1) A reason for accumulated fats

Fats are accumulated on places such as thighs, calves, chests, arms, a face and a neck where we don’t do so many activities. Especially obesities on arms and legs can be caused from expanded fats on abdomen and main body, so one need to be careful for both parts.

2) Partial Obesity

Fats can be accumulated on the entire body but on certain areas like pelvis, upper body and spine due to one’s constitutional type.

3) Abdominal Obesity and Pelvis

There is an abdominal obesity with showing swollen low belly. In this case, normally the pelvis is turned to the front and internal organs forwarded to the front. Therefore, even with low fat, forwarded stomachs make one look with more fats than his actual fats. In this case, by twisting pelvis to the right position, the abdominal obesity can be cured, and if the pelvis is not turned to the right position, fats can be reduced but abdominal obesity remains the same.

4) Straight Neck and Chest Obesity

When a balance of spine is broken, fats are accumulated around it and forwarded like a lump. And also there are cases with forwarded chests to the front and expanded back which cause accumulating fact on breasts and chests. In the case, one can have abdominal obesity and a sway back with lumbar spinal kyphosis, thoracic spinal loadosis, straight neck and turtle neck.

5) Spinal scoliosis and Obesity

Spinal scoliosis is a case having with twisted spine to the right and the left, so the spine shows S-shape. If one has a scoliosis, one side of spine is strained and shrunk, and the other side of spine is forwarded to the front. And around the space which is made by strained spine, fats are accumulated and it reaches to partial obesity.

6) Hip joints and Obesity

In the case hip joints are forwarded to the front and expanded to sides, fats are accumulated around the space and thighs become thicker than normal. This generally happens to young people wearing high heels often.

17. Easy to lose weight when having a goal

For people who try to lose weight, it is so crucial to have a strong will to gain its goal. The clearer the aim is, the easier the person can realize one’s own goal for diet.

18. Concentrate on abdomen to lose weight

Having a meal with taking abdominal breath makes one supplement his insufficient vigor, enabling him to feel better and maintain his vigor even when the person is hungry. Additionally, abdominal breath consumes fats around abdomen first which is so effective for people with obesity on their bellies. And also, it soothes one’s mind and lowers vigor to lower body, making one eliminate unstable mind or surprises.

The Lesser Yin Person has little Yang vigor and blood, so the blood circulation is not smooth and makes the body cool, reaching to a disc eventually. Hence, it is necessary to supplement Yang vigor, remove coolness, improve functions on stomach, support blood circulation, and supplement bloods to make the body warm.
