What is obesity?
Obesity is caused by an energy imbalance in the body i.e. when the energy consumed from food and drink is greater than the energy expended through activity. This energy imbalance results in the build-up of fatty deposits in the body, leading to an increase in body weight.

Obesity significantly increases the risk of other conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, heart attack, stroke, sleep apnoea and even cancer.
