How does overeating affect our health?

Overeating affects health by putting extra strain on the digestive system and supplying the body with more calories than it needs. When this happens regularly, the excess energy is stored as body fat, leading to weight gain.

Frequent overeating can cause indigestion, bloating, acidity, obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and an increased risk of heart disease. It may also reduce energy levels and affect overall well-being. Eating balanced meals, controlling portion sizes, and practising mindful eating help maintain a healthy body weight and support good health.
