Whe â¦ n the body gets too little fat you can go into a state where you will no longer process the food you do eat correctly. Once this happens you can have sever digestive problems that lead to diarrhea and dehydration.
Being overly fat â even if you are of normal weight -- increases your risk of certain diseases, including heart disease, stroke, some cancers and Type 2 diabetes. Loss of muscle mass can also lead to loss of function. It may be harder to do chores, play with your kids, carry groceries or walk up the stairs. As you age, loss of muscle impedes balance and can cause dangerous falls and limit your ability to care for yourself.
