Abstract
The increase in morbidity and mortality associated with distinct obesity is based on the one hand on the direct effects of overweight on circulatory and pulmonary function, and on the other on a higher prevalence of subsequent sequelae. The latter are, in particular, arterial hypertension and metabolic disturbances, which either arise due to overweight, or which are fostered by it. This means that weight reduction is of particular importance for the treatment of the sequelae of metabolic disorders.
