About 20% of the world’s population is obese; thus, obesity is classified among the diseases of civilization. The epidemic nature of obesity in industrialized countries is a serious health and social concern. The number of obese people has significantly increased in the past 20 years. In certain developed countries, 50% to 65% of the total population are overweight or obese, which means that only 1/3 of the people have normal body weight.

Obesity is the sixth most important risk factor in terms of the number of deaths in the world. In 1997 the WHO officially declared obesity to be a chronic condition which requires treatment, fosters the development of other diseases, and is connected with increased mortality.

Obesity is a gain in body weight, conditioned by the accumulation of excess body fat, significantly above the norms set for specific ages, races and sexes, and exceeding the physiological needs and adaptability of the human body [6]. The appropriate body mass is determined by the BMI (Body Mass Index) [7] expressing the weight to height ratio. A BMI greater than 30 kg/m2 means obesity. With BMI exceeding 40 kg/m2 obesity is classified as very severe and there is a risk of negative health outcomes [8]. For definitions of obesity and overweight in this manuscript, authors accepted the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) criteria, developed in 2005 by a group of IOTF experts, who extrapolated the adult BMI cutoff points for overweight (25 kg/m2) and obesity (30 kg/m2).
