肥胖症是一种以过度脂肪沉积为特征的疾病。在过去的30年里，肥胖症在全球范围内的患病率一直在上升。2015年发表的最新研究结果显示，全球成人肥胖症的患病率为12%，相当于全球6.04亿肥胖成年人。自20世纪80年代以来，儿童肥胖症的患病率也有所增加，全球范围内达到5%。肥胖症对社会阶层的影响不同，最贫穷的人肥胖率最高，肥胖症增加。在法国ESTEBAN 2015年的研究中，超重和肥胖的患病率在教育水平最低的成年人和没有文凭的照顾者的儿童中最高。
Obesity is a disease characterized by an excessive fat deposition. It is associated to the development of several comorbidities.The worldwide prevalence of obesity has been rising in the past 30 years.Recent results published in 2015 show a global prevalence of 12% in adults, which amounts to 604 million obese adults in the world. The prevalence of obesity has also increased in children since the 1980s to reach 5% globally.Social categories are differently affected by obesity with the most impoverished ones having the highest rate of obesity and obesity increase. In the French ESTEBAN study of 2015, the prevalence of overweight and obesity was the highest among adults with the lowest education level and among children whose caregiver was without diploma.
