Answer:

It refers to a body mass index (BMI) over 30 and doesn't prevent a person from being active.

Explanation:

The definition of obesity is performed according to the body mass index (BMI). An obese person is one who has a BMI between 30 and 40.

Obese patients have movement limitations, tend to be contaminated with fungi and other skin infections in their fat folds, with various complications and can sometimes be severe. In addition, they overload the spine and lower limbs, with long-term degeneration (arthrosis) of spinal, hip, knee and ankle joints, and superficial and deep varicose disease (varicose veins) with recurrent ulcers and erysipelas.

The prevention of obesity should be started from childhood, adopting healthy habits by the family and encouraging the practice of physical activity, because the construction of such habits occurs at this stage.

The increase in external stimuli caused by television, internet, encouraged the consumption of processed foods rich in carbohydrates and trans fats, which may partly explain the increased incidence of obesity in the population.
