Obesity is an excessive increase in body fat in the body, to an extent it may affect health status.
Obesity is defined by exceeding the standard BMI curves. These curves are expressed as percentiles, standard deviation, or standard deviations. The 50th percentile represents the median. Changes considered normal range of 10 to 90. Between the 90th and 97th percentile may have about overweight zone. Beyond 97, there is talk of obesity.

New values
An international definition of childhood obesity based on BMI curves drawn from different countries, will soon be proposed. Two degrees of overweight are defined by the percentiles curves reaching values of 25 and 30 to 18 years. This new international definition for child maintain continuity with the adult and will mainly compare the incidence of obesity compared to the total population between different studies and between different countries.
Variations with age
In the French study reference to growth, where a reference population has been followed longitudinally (over several years) from birth to 20 years, it was observed that the majority of children 1 year does not stay in the same group of corpulence. In particular, 60% of children roughly 1 year will no longer be in adulthood. Hence the importance for young children interested in the dynamic evolution of their corpulence and their adiposity rebound to identify children claiming support or prevention.
