Abstract

Overweight and obesity represent a growing threat to health of the people in an increasing number of countries. In 2016, 1.9 billion adults were overweight. Of these, over 650 million were obese. Globally, obesity rates have tripled since 1975. Over 340 million children and adolescents aged 5–19 were overweight or obese in 2016. Nearly 41 million children under the age of 5 were overweight in 2016, worldwide [1]. According to data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, during 2015–2016, the prevalence of obesity was 39.8% in adults and 18.5% in youth in the United States [2]. Over the most recent decade between 2007–2008 and 2015–2016, increases in obesity and severe obesity prevalence persisted among adults, whereas there were no overall significant trends among youth [3].
