Intra abdominal adiposity (IAA)  linked obesity may be the most significant contributory factor to high mortality human disease after aging. IAA  presents with systemic and chronic inflammation and enlarged White Adipose Tissue (WAT) adipocytes that have been infiltrated with lymphocytes and macrophages that secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, growth factors and inappropriate levels of pro-inflammatory adipokines.  Aging combined with chronic obesity not only promotes cardiovascular disease and cancer but further promotes autoimmune disease, dementia and high morbidity metabolic dysfunction, respiratory disease, and hyperimmune response to otherwise non-virulent pathogens linked to mortality.
