Morbid obesity is a condition in which the food taken in by an individual exceeds the amount of energy expended. This condition results in an excessive amount of fatty tissue or weight gain. An individual with a body mass of 40 and over is considered to have morbid obesity. Individuals with morbid obesity are often susceptible to other health problems such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, and hypertension. There are many potential causes for morbid obesity including genetic factors, sedentary life, stress, sleep disturbance, or possibly a thyroid condition. Treatment may include changes in diet, exercise, medications, and possibly surgical intervention such as a gastric bypass.
