Obesity or Unnecessary Accumulation of Fats in the Body results from ingesting more-calories substances that the body is spending over the long term. This leads to an increase in Fat Mass and an "Excess Weight for a given stature." It is assessed using the body mass index (BMI), from which the World Health Organization (WHO) has defined following thresholds:- overweight , corresponding to a BMI between 25 and 30 kg/m2
- obesity, corresponding to a BMI between 30 and 40
- massive obesity when the BMI exceeds 40.
Statistically, a simple overweight (overweight) is not a source of particular diseases, but can be a factor of aggravation of a disease, whereas obesity, in addition to its social and psychological repercussions, is directly associated with diseases, reflecting in particular the excess risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
In 1997 , the WHO classified obesity as a chronic disease , and defined “overweight and obesity as an abnormal or excessive accumulation of body fat which can be harmful to health” . Its prevention is a public health problem in developed countries.
This multifactorial state of Obesity is metaphorically considered today as a pandemic, although it is not an infectious disease.Article Last Updated on - 25.11.2024
