Obesity is a major risk factor for many health problems, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It is anticipated that the prevalence of obesity in the United States will grow as time passes. The objective of this study is to compare the health of obese women who engage in regular exercise to that of nonobese women. This literature review is drawn from eight library-based research articles at East Tennessee State University (ETSU). The search engine covers topics such as obesity, postmenopausal women, physical activity, nutrition, health, fitness, and lifestyle. Taking nutritional supplements and increased physical exercise minimizes the likelihood of health decline, according to the study's primary findings. Nurses should consider implementing education on regular physical exercise, well-balanced diet, and involvement in activities with those seeking the same goal. Among the limitations include a small sample size, a restricted variety of persons, self-reporting of physical activity, and more.
