Obesity: The Most Damaging Root Cause of Hypertension—And So Much More 

HOLMANFIT Daily Health Tip Obesity: The Most Damaging Root Cause of Hypertension—And So Much More 

MY MISSION is your success. I want to teach you how to live by my Golden Rule for Fitness & Health so that you live a longer, healthier life.

Let’s talk about something we don’t talk about enough:
High blood pressure. The “silent killer.” You often don’t feel it until it’s already doing damage.

And yes, there are many causes—poor diet, inactivity, stress—but the #1 root cause we can change is obesity.

But here’s the part most people miss:
 Obesity doesn’t just raise blood pressure. It acts like fuel on a fire—multiplying your risk of nearly every major disease.

If you’re obese, your risk skyrockets:

• Type 2 Diabetes – 5 to 7 times more likely

• Heart Disease – 2 to 5 times

• Hypertension – 2 to 3 times

• Stroke – 2 to 3 times

• Certain Cancers – 1.3 to 3 times

• Sleep Apnea – 4 to 10 times

• Knee Osteoarthritis – 4 to 5 times

• Alzheimer’s/Dementia – 1.5 to 2 times

Obesity is not just one risk factor—it’s a master disease multiplier.

This isn’t about shame. It’s about truth—and hope.

Because you can change your future. Starting today.

The answer is HOLMANFIT’s Golden Rule:

• Eat healthy food in the right amount

• Exercise regularly—both cardio and strength

• Don’t smoke

• Get a good night’s sleep

Following the Golden Rule will lower your blood pressure, lose weight, feel better, and add years to your life.

That’s precisely why I wrote Essentials of Fitness & Health, a book that explains everything in simple, direct, common-sense language.

You’ll learn:

• What foods to eat (and what to avoid)

You can do this.
And I want to help you succeed.
