obesity and food addiction

Obesity refers to a medical condition characterized by excessive accumulation of body fat, resulting in negative health consequences. It is typically determined using the body mass index (BMI) measurement. Food addiction is a psychological condition where individuals develop a compulsive or uncontrollable urge to consume certain types of foods, particularly those high in sugar, fat, or carbohydrates. It is often associated with a loss of control, continued consumption despite negative consequences, and an inability to stop or reduce food intake.
