Over nutrition 1
Introduction
Overnutrition is defined as the consumption of vitamins and meals in the quantity that is
more than the sufficient amount required for the proper functioning of the body. Such as the
accumulation of glycogen in the adipose tissues, those are formed due to excessive intake of
carbohydrates primarily glucose in the diet. The impact of obesity on the health of world
population was provided in the study conducted by (Gomez-Hernandez, Beneit, Diaz-
Castroverde, & Escribano, 2016), indicated that a total 39 % peoples aged over 18 years
were overweight in 2014 and out of that 13 % were suffering from obesity. Obesity has been
associated with a 44 % incidence of diabetes, 23 % of heart diseases and approximately 7-41 %
cancer-related disorders. The present report will provide a brief overview in the context of the
impact of obesity on brain activity, the role of over nutation in the proliferation of obesity,
chronic diseases associated with obesity and the impact of maternal obesity on the son in the
context of the growing environment.
Overnutrition the cause of overweight and obesity
The food consumed in the form solid food or liquid diet is processed by the different
metabolic pathways in the body and results in simpler molecular form, in comparison to the
complex nature of food which was its earlier form. The macromolecules and micro molecules are
transported with the help of the circulatory system from one part of the body to another part of
the body (Baintner, 2019). The different part of the body/tissue uses these molecules as per
their energy requirement. One of the prevalent molecules which are the source for energy in the
body is glucose, which is primarily used by the body cells for energy production by different
metabolic pathways such as glycolysis (Lunt & Vander Heiden, 2011). At the point when the

measure of energy which likewise implies calories expended in nourishment and beverages
surpass the energy utilized for practice and metabolic procedures in the body, weight increase
will happen. The extra molecule which has not been used for the energy requirement of the body
is stored in the adipose tissues. The lack of physical activity is one of the primary sources in the
imbalance between the amount of energy intake and the amount of energy utilized by the body.
The unhealthy dietary habit which includes high sugary drinks in the diet regularly results in the
excess of glucose in the body, which ultimately remains unused and hence stored in the adipose
cells of the adipose tissue (Robroek, Reeuwijk, Hillier, Bambra, van Rijn, & Burdorf,
2013). The occurrence of obesity occurs at the adipose cell which works as the energy storage
unit in the body, due to the extra nutrients in the body the adipose cells reach a state of
hyperplasia in which the size and number of adipose cells increase rapidly.
Obesity and chronic diseases
Obesity has critical impacts on wellbeing and it is connected to a wide scope of illnesses
(Agborsangaya, Ngwakongnwi, Lahtinen, Cooke, & Johnson, 2013). One of the illnesses
that are regularly brought about by weight is a coronary illness. Coronary illness is normally
brought about by the development of fatty deposition on the walls of the blood supply routes
around the heart. The fatty acid layer on the walls is generally associated with the food items that
are consumed daily, such as bad cholesterol and triglycerides. The food products containing a
large volume of fat particles will result in the deposition of fat molecules on the blood vessels
related to the heart. As the deposition of cholesterol in the inner wall of blood vessels increases
the inner diameter of blood vessels decreases which results in the hindrance of blood supply to
the muscles of the heart. The lack of blood supply results in the lack of nutrients and oxygen to
the muscles of the heart, which ultimately results in the death of heart muscles also known as a
