Obesity in children is recently a big problem, which is due to bigger consumption of sweets and macaroni, and on the other part – to immobilization (staying with hours to watch TV and computer). Obesity is a lesion of the total organism and if no measures are undertaken, it damages the heart, vessels, joints, exhausts pancreas and this leads to diabetes mellitus. Obesity, however, may be due to lesions of hypophysis and adrenal gland too, and therefore aid from pediatrician-endocrinologist should be sought.
