Foresight – Obesity System Map »
Foresight – Obesity System Map
Foresight – Obesity System Map☜Obesity occurs when energy intake from food and drink consumption is greater than energy expenditure through the body’s metabolism and physical activity over a prolonged period, resulting in the accumulation of excess body fat. However there are many complex behavioural and societal factors that combine to contribute to the causes of obesity.☜F1CEB7
