Abstract: Obesity has been on the rise over the years leading to an global epidemic. Policies and preventive strategies have been developed and disseminated focusing on the declared main contributors of obesity; overconsumption of convenient food and lack of physical activity. However it is easy to overlook the fact that obesity is a complex disease and one needs to understand the foundations causing this condition. Underlying cofounding factors need to be uncovered and understood before obesity management is initiated.
