Body Recomposition

Obesity is a global pandemic rising beyond the status of a lifestyle disorder, and its consequences include impaired metabolism, energy disruption, and abdominal fat deposition and storage.

It contains vast research on topics including factors that influence fat accumulation; strategies for weight management; healthy diet and eating patterns; physical exercise; and lifestyle strategies in healthy weight management.
