Abstract
Obesity is associated with multiple interrelated disorders such as insulin resistance/diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, sleep apnea - all contributing collectively to the diagnosis of a metabolic syndrome, that reduces life expectancy (Flegal et al., 2013). Metabolic changes in obesity may also affect reproduction.
