The Obesity Epidemic and its Management

ISBN 978-3-7692-4647-6

Obesity is a growing problem among both adults and children, especially in the UK and USA. It causes more than 9000 premature deaths a year in England alone and is an important risk factor for a number of chronic conditions. As such, community pharmacists now have an increasingly important role in public health and a responsibility to patients to understand the causes and dangers of obesity, as well as the options for treatment.

This book will serve as an invaluable resource for any healthcare professional wishing to understand more about the causes, effects and treatments of obesity.
