Zusammenfassung

Übergewicht/Adipositas kann allgemein als eine Vermehrung des Körperfetts definiert werden, die über das Normalmaß hinausgeht und mit einer Gesundheitsgefährdung bzw. mit einem erhöhten Risiko für Folgeerkrankungen einhergeht. Die Begriffe Fettleibigkeit und Fettsucht werden im deutschen Sprachraum dazu synonym benutzt. Der letztgenannte Begriff sollte nicht verwendet werden, da er medizinisch nicht korrekt und diskriminierend zugleich ist.
