Resumen

La situación de sobrepeso y de obesidad en la población se considera un problema grave de salud pública. Actualmente, en el mundo existen cerca de 1.600 millones de adultos con sobrepeso, de los cuales, 400 millones son clínicamente obesos. En el caso de Colombia, según la Encuesta Nacional de la Situación Nutricional, realizada en 2005 por el Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar, existe sobrepeso y obesidad en 46% de la población adulta, lo que afecta en forma más importante a las mujeres.

La globalización se encuentra ligada a los rápidos cambios socioeconómicos, demográficos y tecnológicos; esto forma parte de la evolución y genera el proceso de la transición nutricional. Los seres humanos han sufrido cambios importantes en su actividad física y su estado nutricional, lo cual ha influido en el desarrollo de las enfermedades no transmisibles relacionadas con la nutrición: la urbanización, el crecimiento económico, los cambios tecnológicos en el trabajo, el procesamiento de alimentos, la cultura y el crecimiento de la información masiva.

Los efectos de la modificación de los patrones implican un incremento en el consumo de alimentos, en su contenido calórico, en la disminución del gasto energético, o en todas las anteriores.

Diversos estudios han correlacionado la presencia de ciertos tipos de cáncer con obesidad y la dieta es un factor muy importante para prevenirlo.

Finalmente, debe considerarse la obesidad como un problema económico derivado de factores tales como políticas gubernamentales, influencia de importantes compañías de alimentos y de la inseguridad alimentaria presente en las clases socioeconómicas menos favorecidas. Es absolutamente necesario implementar programas educativos a diferentes niveles y, sobre todo, a multiplicadores de información, sobre lo que significa una dieta balanceada y la importancia de una alimentación sana en la salud y el bienestar del individuo.
