The two main obesity causes are eating more than the body actually requires and doing very little physical workout to compensate that.
Obesity is a condition where an individual has a Body Mass Index (BMI) greater than 30 Kg/m2.
It is a malaise, a disease seen in adults and children alike. Worldwide, 1 in 3 adults is considered to be obese.
Obesity in children is no different; more than 1 in 6 children and adolescents in the age range of 6 to 19 are considered obese [1].
In fact, recently TOI has reported that obesity in India has spiked up so much that it made the country become the second nation in the world with most obese children, after China.
The situation in the urban areas is such that, 1 in 3 urban Indians is weighing towards the overweight or obese side[2].
