<FONT color="#333366"><FONT>                <FONT>Gallbladder disease is the most common digestive disease in obese individuals; it has a progressive and linear risk from a BMI of 20 upwards. Liver abnormalities are described in  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN> mainly due to fatty infiltration but, on occasions, associated with fibrosis and/or cirrhosis. Certain forms of cancer are more common in obese subjects: colorectal and prostate in obese men, carcinoma of the gallbladder, breast, and endometrium in obese women. Osteoarthritis frequently accompanies  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN>, while bone density tends to be increased in obese subjects.  <SPAN>Obesity</SPAN> in women is also associated with menstrual irregularity and infertility;  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN> may be, but is not always, associated with the polycystic ovary syndrome. <A href="http://www.doctors.net.uk/onlinebooks/return openwin("showlink.aspx?block=table&file=OTM/otm-010_nutrition.xml&title=otm180.t5&book=62")"><FONT color="#333366">Table 5</FONT></A> lists the morbidity associated with increasing body weight.</FONT>
