Obesity Disease Conference Held In Warsaw
Poland is shifting its terminology to refer to obesity as an 'obesity disease' rather than simply 'obesity' to reduce patient stigma. This reclassification emphasizes the serious health implications, including cardiovascular, oncological, and mental health issues like depression, associated with excess weight. Poland has reached the first place in Europe regarding the number of children suffering from obesity. The source noted that this condition is expected to become more advanced as these children enter adulthood. Obesity is described as a disorder of balance within the body. A conference titled "Obesity Disease 2026" took place in Warsaw.
