Obesity is a serious, chronic condition that increases the risk of numerous comorbid diseases, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke and respiratory problems. The prevalence of obesity is increasing in many developed countries, with a serious effect on healthcare resources. "Fast Facts: Obesity" provides a refreshing insight into this complex condition. The book covers the causes and implications of obesity, together with the latest information on drug treatments, surgical options and weight-management strategies. The authors, both experts in this field, provide concise, practical advice that will prove invaluable to all primary care professionals in the assessment and management of obese patients.
