There is no region / country that has not been affected by the evil of obesity. Whether developed or developing nation, everyone faces a common health risk that has been termed as "Obesity". Obesity, which under normal conditions means over weight is not just a problem too, buts its consequences are grave. Obesity in medical terms refers to unwanted or excess fat in our body (in the form of fat). The main problem that lies behind his huge prevalent in developed countries (mainly Australia), is the lack of ignorance among the common masses.

Obese people are very prone to - heart disease, stroke or stroke, diabetes, gallbladder cancer, osteoarthritis (wearing away of the joints), gout, breathing problems, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, etc.

A recent study from the Medical Journal of Australia 174:561-4 shows that 47% of women and 63% of men are overweight or obese in Australia, where seven million adult Australians aged 25 years and over (60% ) are overweight. Of these, more than two million (21%) were found to obese 1999-2000 Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study.

It was found that males were more likely to be overweight than women, with 67% and 52% respectively.

There was a significant increase in the proportion overweight and obese Australians over the past 20 years. From 1980 to 1999-2000, for persons aged 25-64 years, the proportion of women increased from 27% overweight and 47%, a proportion of obese people has increased from 47% to 66 %.

On average, women in 1999 weighed 4.8 kg more than their counterparts in 1980, and the men 3.6 kg more.

So now the question is why is obesity such a drastic threat to Australiji.Razlog that are simple and objašnjive.Gojaznost usually caused by excessive intake of fat, which is a common saying, but it is not always true, because once you get back in the late 70's or 80's feel that as we lay together are intaking fat through our food, but the problem of obesity is rare, but now-a-days the whole lifestyle of people has changed. Today, when the day begins with a child to leave his / her breakfast (which consists of vitamins, proteins) and went to school in the interval he / she consumes fast food, including pizza's, burgers and soft drinks that are very fat and mild toxic . Similarly, the problem with the high ones, the same problem was seen in a variety of corporate, where the employee is working under the 24x7 work environment in this case there is a regular lunch or breakfast, and their busy schedule increases the intake of fast and junk food as you simply order a drink. We believe that even in households when we determine that there is nothing to eat and no time to cook, or we'll call for pizza or hamburger prefer and enjoy our meals, it is true, if we are to explain in terms of time and is also delicious . I am not discouraging pizza parlors, ice cream and hamburgers, but what we can do is limit your intake and encourage more vegetables, fruits in our daily diet.

But still most people consume the same assumption that it will reduce the extra calories the next day, but the day never dolazi.Općenito masses are fully aware of how junk food and stimulating to obesity and weight problems. As this problem is increasing day by day, and if not taken seriously, and preventive measures and treatment can interfere with the main population in Australia.

Ultimately the solution is simple and explanatory. Wherever you live and wherever we have to adapt to the natural habits of healthy foods and avoid junk food intake. And people who are proned to obesity have to do physical exercise to get rid of it. However, for very obese patients with BMI over 35.00, obesity surgery is recommended.
