Obesity and health insurance

http://insureme.us/obesity-health-insurance/

Obesity has long term health and financial impacts. People who suffer from obesity oftentimes develop cardiovascular problems which may lead to numerous health issues. This is one of the reasons why insurance companies believe that severely overweight people have shorter life-spans than others. It is because of this that insurance companies are less-inclined to ensure them, or if they do, they tend to charge much higher rates than they normally would.
