Abstract

Obesity and overweight are defined as: “the abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat that can be detrimental to health”. The increase in the percentage of body fat is directly associated with the appearance of multiple comorbidities and serious consequences, since it predisposes or favors the development of cardiovascular risk factors, such as arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, glucose intolerance, diabetes, heart disease and other related diseases. This document aims to synthesize information concerning overweight and obesity in adults so that general practitioners, specialists and subspecialists within their clinical practice can provide adequate diagnosis, treatment, primary and secondary prevention based on the best information and scientific evidence for decision making and reduce the economic and epidemiological burden caused by this disease to the Mexican population.
