What you'll learn

Obesity is understood as an excessive accumulation of body fat which is caused by the consumption of more calories than the body can use. The excess calories are stored as fat. Depending on the area of fat distribution it can be generalized, central, android, or gynoid. Genetics and family history has been found to play a role in the etiology of obesity. read more »»

However, lifestyle and food habits have a major role to play. A sedentary lifestyle and exposure to a lot of food predispose an individual to obesity. Once obesity sets in, a cascade of other comorbid conditions is set in motion. Learn all about obesity and its etiology in this course designed by Medvarsity and Dosily.
