About how many people die every year from obesity? "As recently as January, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated obesity as being responsible for 365,000 deaths per year in the United States. But the new estimate, published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), puts the annual death toll at only 25,814 -- the earlier estimate was about 14 times greater. " Source(s): source: http://tinyurl.com/ef9z4 My diet and exercise blog: http://itsafatlife.blogspot.com... A lot of people die each year from complications of obesity. Usually it starts with high blood pressure - Chronic high blood pressure causes more problems like kidney failure, diabetes - All of this can lead to stroke - congestive heart failure - eventually the death is attributed to heart failure. All of that weight is hard on your heart and eventually your heart quits beating. Good luck! |
