Abstract

Obezite vücuttaki yağ miktarının fazlalığı olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Son yıllarda gelişmiş ülkelerde beslenme, yaşam biçiminin değişimi ve ekonomik ferahlık nedeniyle obezite prevelansında bir artış mevcuttur. Bizim gibi gelişmekte olan ülkelerde de prevelansın yüksek olduğu yapılan çalışmalarla gösterilmiştir. Obezitenin sıklığındaki artış; ilgili sorunları da ( metabolik, endokrin, yapısal gibi..) beraberinde getirdiğinden önemlidir. Bu yüzden obezitenin gelişimi, önlenmesi ve tedavisini bu derlemeyle ortaya koymaya çalıştık.
