Message definition (Obesity)
<!--Treatment & Prevention-->
While a majority of obese individuals at any given time attempt to lose weight and are often successful, maintaining weight loss long-term is rare. There is no effective, well-defined, evidence-based intervention for preventing obesity. Obesity prevention requires a complex approach, including interventions at societal, community, family, and individual levels. Changes to [[diet (nutrition)|diet]] as well as [[physical exercise|exercising]] are the main treatments recommended by health professionals. Diet quality can be improved by reducing the consumption of energy-dense foods, such as those high in fat or sugars, and by increasing the intake of [[dietary fiber]], if these dietary choices are available, affordable, and accessible. [[Anti-obesity medication|Medications]] can be used, along with a suitable diet, to reduce appetite or decrease fat absorption. If diet, exercise, and medication are not effective, a [[gastric balloon]] or [[bariatric surgery|surgery]] may be performed to reduce stomach volume or length of the intestines, leading to feeling full earlier, or a reduced ability to absorb nutrients from food.
