How Weight Loss Affects Your Body
Dr oz talked about the waist size and knee pain that accompanies being over weight. He showed us what the omentum fat looks like of someone with a little extra weight, which weighed about 5 pounds or so, then showed us a regular omentum and what it should look like. He went to explain the problems with the knees if your carrying an extra 100 pounds of weight around, it's like multiplying it by 3 and having the pressure of 300 pounds of weight pressure on your knee bones. When your walking upstairs multiply it by 7, and over time your wearing away the bone and cartilage. Watch the video to see how Dr Oz uses oranges as an example on how the body can heal itself.
