ABSTRACT
A recent survey by the World Health Organization (WHO) demonstrated that globally there are more than 1 billion overweight adults and approximately 300 million of whom are obese [1]. It is important to emphasize that wrestler and heavyweight champions are overweight due to healthy muscle and may have little or no fat [2]. However, accumulation of excessive body fat due to increased consumption of energy-dense foods rich in saturated fats and sugar, advancing age, compromised metabolism, sedentary lifestyle, and lack of physical exercise may lead to obesity in conjunction with a series of degenerative diseases and disorders [2]. Health professionals are exploring unique technologies to combat obesity, which will ultimately help to combat a wide array of health dysfunctions.
