How does obesity impact a person with bronchitis and insulin-dependent diabetes?

Obesity can make it more difficult to breathe and therefore add to the problems of bronchitis. For diabetics, it can increase the body's resistance to insulin, requiring them to take higher doses of insulin to compensate. Diabetics have a higher risk for many other diseases, being overweight can increase that risk even more. Do consult a physician or a Fitness expert (like VLCC) for credible advice.
