Obesity is only a degree of obesity higher than that of overweight. Energy intake from food is stored as fat because the body does not use it. Obesity has a considerable impact on health, and many degenerative diseases are directly or indirectly related to obesity observed in the history of obesity. It may even have a more serious impact on a person's mental health. Through the history of obesity, its reputation changes from appreciation and culture to time.

Looking at the history of obesity, we will understand that this is indeed an ancient state of health. It is said that the ancient Egyptians believed that obesity is a disease and has fallen into a depressed disease. Perhaps the most famous and earliest evidence of obesity is Venus, and the figurine of the torso of the obese female may play a major role in the ritual. Ancient China also realized the dangers of obesity and its dangers. They have always believed that prevention is the key to longevity. The Aztecs believe that obesity is supernatural and the pain of the gods. Hippocrates, the father of medicine, realized that in his work, the sudden death of obese men was more common than that of thin people. In areas where culture and food are scarce and impoverished, obesity is seen as a symbol of wealth and social status. So far, an African tribe has deliberately instigated the bride to prepare her childbearing. Before the wedding, a slim bride can try to gain weight until she reaches the right weight.

Through the history of obesity, public opinion and obesity have changed considerably in the 1900s. French designer Paul Poiret designed skin-exposed clothes for women, which is considered out of date. At about the same time, the incidence of obesity began to increase and became widespread. In the late 1940s, Metropolitan Life Insurance published a chart of ideal weights of various heights. They also advocate that weight gain parallel to age is not good. The government and the medical community have experienced obesity more by launching a campaign against obesity. Prior to this, risk factors for cardiovascular disease were studied and showed high levels of obesity. Since then, various diet and exercise programs have emerged. In 1996, the body mass index [BMI] was published. The statistical calculations and indices determine whether a person is obese. At this time, obesity has soared, dominated by childhood and adolescent obesity, which has tripled in just a few years, surpassing any number in the history of obesity.

Perhaps the most controversial is the independent film, Super Size Me. Super Size Me was released in 2004 and was produced and directed by American independent filmmaker Martin Spurlock to explore the prevalence of obesity in the United States. He recorded 30 days of life in his life, only eating McDonald's food, and no exercise at all. He started the project to be healthy and lean, but he was overweight. Then there were several documentaries and some changes on the McDonald's menu. The history of obesity should be fully studied in order to implement regulations and then prevent the spread of obesity.

Over the years, in the history of obesity, it seems to continue to deteriorate the growing awareness and confrontational technology, which is known as the epidemic.
