Today I want to cover why people who are overweight have a higher risk of getting COVID-19.

Potential reasons why people who are overweight have a higher risk of getting COVID-19:

1. The extra fat on the abdomen puts physical pressure on your diaphragm and lungs, restricting oxygen. This can make the lungs more susceptible to problems.

2. There is a higher risk of blood clots to the small vessels of the lungs and the inside of the arteries. There has been a link found between blood clots and COVID-19.

3. The fat is spilling over from the liver into other organs and infiltrating fat in the spleen, thymus, and bone marrow. This may decrease the immune system.

4. There is chronic inflammation. Inflammation can increase someone's risk for a cytokine storm, which is an inflammatory condition that's out of control.

5. Insulin resistance worsens obesity, and obesity worsens insulin resistance. People who have insulin resistance or who are obese may be more susceptible to SARS-CoV-2.

6. In many cases, people who are overweight or obese are deficient in vitamin D. I believe vitamin D is very important to potentially help minimize the complications, side effects, and severity of COVID-19. It may also help decrease your susceptibility to the COVID virus.

If you're overweight or obese, you may benefit from getting on the healthy keto diet and doing intermittent fasting.
