Obesity is a chronic disorder with a progressive and relapsing profile, and it has reached epidemic global proportions. It is a preventable and treatable cause of increased early mortality, however, in most of cases, it reaches only transitory success. When obese people lose weight, orexigen hormones increase and sacietogen ones decrease, causing a persistent increase in hunger and a decrease in body energy expenditure. In a obesogenic environment, this metabolic imbalance causes obesity relapse. The obesity treatment must focus in hyperproteic diets, intensive and frequent exercise and a combination of drugs that counteract the compensatory mechanisms present in who have lost weight.
