O knihe

Obesity is currently experiencing an epidemic explosion, affecting both developed and developing countries, where it constitutes a serious public health problem. The general objective of our study is to assess the extent of overweight among the students of the 15th promotion of Senghor University of Alexandria, as well as the underlying factors associated with it. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among all students at Senghor University in Alexandria. Anthropometric measurements were used to assess nutritional status. Overweight affected more than a third of all students, with a higher prevalence among male students. With regard to risk factors, our results revealed that the time spent on sedentary activities was greater than that devoted to high-intensity physical activities. Students' diets were heavily based on animal products, high in sugar and fat, and low in fruit and vegetables.
