The number of overweight people is growing at a pace, that now there is every reason to say, that the world has started a whole epidemic of obesity, since 1980 has doubled the number of people, suffering from obesity. If we do not take any measures, by 2020 the treatment of diseases, caused by obesity will cost $ 30 trillion for the global economy.
