It is hard to define the exact prevalence of people who are
overweight or obese. However, in most Western nations, these
conditions are generally accepted to be of widespread concern to
health authorities and the general public. The physiological,
psychological and social/environmental factors which may be
implicated in the aetiology, maintenance and treatment of these
conditions have been the subject of an extraordinary volume of
research and technical and popular literature. One fact cannot be
disputed: the conditions reflect positive energy balance, where
consumption has consistently exceeded expenditure. This book
focuses on the causes and nature of this overconsumption, and the
role played by specific nutrients or perhaps even specific foods or
groups of foods.
