SCOPE AND DELIMITATION OF THE STUDY

Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a


risk to health. A body mass index (BMI) over 25 is considered overweight, and over
30 obese. For adults, who defines overweight and obesity as follows: overweight is a
BMI greater than or equal to 25 and obesity is a BMI greater than or equal to 30.

Obesity is generally caused by eating too much and moving to little. If you
consume high amounts of energy, particularly fat and sugar but do not burn off the
energy through exercise and physical activity much of surplus energy will be stored
by the body as fat. Obesity refers to bodyweight that is greater than what is
consider normal or healthy for a certain height overweight is generally due to extra
muscle bone or water. People who have obesity have too much bodyfat.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

OBESITY

Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that present a


risk to health. BMI - Body Mass Index is a person weight in kilograms (or pounds)
divided by the square of height in meters (or feet) HEALTH - Health is a state of
complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of
disease or infirmity. TYPE II DIABETICS - is an impairment in the way the body
regulates and uses sugar (glucose) as fuel: This long term (chronic) conditions
results in too much sugar circulating in the blood stream.
CHAPTER 2

INTRODUCTION

Obesity are increasing problems that lead to significant health and social
difficulties for people. Commonly defined by a measurement of Body mass index
(BMI) calculated by dividing body weight kilograms by height meters squared, the
prevalence of overweight adult BMI of between 25 and 29.9 and obesity BMI of 30
or over is increasing for children, these BMI standards required adjustment for age
and gender obesity are global problems and the world health organization who
predicts that by 2022. Obesity rates have nearly doubled in the 18 past years from
13% of men and 26% of women in 2022. In the same time year, about 3 in 10
children aged 2-15 years were found to be overweight or obese.
Obesity is directly linked to a number of different illnesses including lol type 2
diabetes, hypertension, gallstones and gastro esophageal reflux diseases as well
psychological and psychiatric morbidities. The health and social care information
centre reported that there were inpatient admissions too hospital with a primary
diagnosis of obesity in 2022.

prevalence of obesity is increasing rapidly worldwide, which is cause for concern
because obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, reduce life

obesity is therefore critical global health concern and human biologist can play an
important role in identifying these risk factor in various population.

SYNTHESIS OF THE STATE OF THE ART

Obesity complicates the care and treatment of act patients and predispone
them to chronic non communicable disease. However, there are is a shortage of
research of research evidence on overweight and obesity and associated factors
among adult art patients on our setting. Therefore, this study aimed to uses
overweight and obesity and associated factors among a adult art patient.
GAP BRIDGED BY THE STUDY

There is increasing recognition that obesity are not just problems of


individuals but also society wide problems that have serious health consequences
and affect some population groups more than others. Acting on this recognition will
be required multifaceted, population-based changes in the social and environmental
factors that influence energy intake and expenditure. There is a pressing used to act
on the problem of obesity, but there is also a large gap between the types and
amount of evidence deemed ideal as the basis for taking action the types and
amount of information available to meet that need.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Health services have a clear role in the treatment of obesity and diseases
linked to obesity but a less well-established role in prevent on particularly in hospital
and community-based health services.
The aim of this research was to examine whether and how hospital and
community-based health services incorporate adult obesity prevention and practice
the case study was a health service. Grounded theory informed all aspects of the
research including participant recruitment data collection and data analysis of
diverse perspective relationship and interconnection in the study.
Health service response to obesity and is prevention compound the negative
elements associated with obesity for individuals and are ineffective in creating
positive change at individual or a social alternative System level approach is needed
to align health service responses with contemporary approaches that address obesity
preventions complex problem.

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

During the last two decades, obesity has become a global pandemic, creating
harmful impacts on men and women in society. If the obesity trend continues
upwards. especially developing countries. it may significant of children professional
social and psychological wellbeing. Furthermore, it is conceivable that when obesity /
overweight issues appear at a young age they may persist during adulthood and
individual development and community well-being. By targeting children at a very
young age and with a broad of strategies junk food marketers have often been
accused of children to over consume junk food from an early age and throughout
adolescence until adulthood.
