ABSTRACT

The prevalence of obesity is rising more quickly than the pace at which obesity research is progressing. Researchers discovered that a number of non-medical variables are to blame for the sharp rise in the number of fat people. In this review, we go over the effects of being inactive, consuming too many calories, getting too little sleep, and living in stressful environment- all of which are major contributors to obesity.

Keywords: Obesity, Calories, Sleep.
