| Özet |
| Obesity, which now affects one in three people, is considered the disease of our time. When body weight increases abnormally, regardless of a person’s control, excess fat tissue accumulates in the body. Obesity is indicated by factors such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference measurements, and other anthropometric measurements. Environmental factors, such as poor and inadequate nutrition, contribute to the development of obesity, as does the adoption of a sedentary lifestyle. Genetic and etiological factors also play a role. Obesity affects not only the individual but also society as a whole. If unhealthy eating habits established in adolescence persist into adulthood, individuals may struggle to achieve a balanced and adequate diet, leading to health problems. The main objectives in the fight against obesity are to promote a balanced diet and to encourage lifestyle changes, including physical activity. This study was compiled by collecting data from secondary sources about obesity and its prevalence globally and in Türkiye. |
