Summary

Obesity has become a major global public health issue, defined by an excessive accumulation of body fat that presents substantial health risks. Over 650 million adults worldwide suffer from obesity, which is defined as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. Obesity is becoming more common in both developed and developing countries. Sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy eating habits that include processed foods and sugars, and genetic factors are the main causes of the rising prevalence of obesity.
