 Obesity is a serious public health concern that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by excessive body fat, which leads to a variety of health problems such as hypertension, high cholesterol levels, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, and metabolic syndrome. Childhood obesity is also associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, respiratory issues, gastrointestinal problems, and musculoskeletal disorders. Additionally, obese children often suffer from mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. To prevent these complications, it is important to manage childhood obesity through lifestyle changes and medication. Lifestyle modifications include eating a balanced diet, increasing physical activity, and limiting sedentary behavior. Medications may be prescribed to help reduce appetite or increase energy expenditure. This article was authored by Despina Harouvi, George Paltiglu, Alexander Soldatou, and others.
