Summary

Obesity is a global public-health issue, with rising incidence and prevalence, significant expenditures, and poor results. Obesity has become a worldwide epidemic in both developed and underdeveloped countries. A body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 is required for class I obesity, a BMI of 35 - 39.9 kg/m2 is required for class II obesity, and a BMI of 40 kg/m2 is required for class III obesity (morbidly obese). Obesity will be the likely situation for the majority of the adult population during the next two decades due to an abundance of calorie-rich food and apathy toward exercise.
