What is obesity ?
Obesity is considered a long-term complex disease. Many factors are involved in determining why some people are heavier than others and how much risk they have for developing other medical problems. Science continues to search for answers.
But until the disease is better understood, the control of excess weight is something patients must work at for their entire lives.
That is why it is very important to understand that all current medical interventions, including weight loss surgery, should not be considered medical cures. Rather, they are attempts to reduce the adverse effects of excessive weight and alleviate the serious physical, emotional and social consequences of the disease.
