sedentary lifestyle and obesity
A sedentary lifestyle refers to a behavior pattern characterized by minimal physical activity or exercise, involving prolonged sitting or inactivity throughout the day. Obesity, on the other hand, is a medical condition where excessive body fat accumulates to an extent that it poses health risks and affects overall well-being. Sedentary lifestyle is often a contributing factor to the development of obesity as it promotes insufficient energy expenditure, leading to weight gain and associated health problems.
