Being overweight doesn’t bother a lot of Black males. Compared to cancer or heart disease, it is hardly a life-threatening illness for them. However, that is incorrect. Researchers have identified 195 illnesses that are impacted by being overweight, according to Dr. Chika Anekwe of Massachusetts General Hospital’s obesity medicine program. Over half of Black women are overweight, but over a third of Black males are as well, at 36.9 percent.
