RESUMEN
El sobrepeso y la obesidad, hoy definidos por la Organización
Mundial de la Salud (OMS) como una epidemia global, son un
importante problema de salud pública internacional. Su rápida
propagación no sólo afecta a los países desarrollados, sino
también a los que están en desarrollo, los cuales enfrentan
la doble problemática de la desnutrición y el sobrepeso.
Dada la importancia de la investigación sanitaria y las grandes
expectativas de la sociedad para reducir el impacto de esta
enfermedad, la atención de estos asuntos debe ser prioritaria.
Existe una necesidad urgente de fomentar el desarrollo de
normas internacionales como el etiquetado de alimentos y
la elaboración de perfiles. No obstante, al igual que sucede
con la medicina individual, los enfoques para intervenir en
la salud pública han de fundamentarse en la mejor evidencia
disponible. En el caso específico de la obesidad, puesto que
se trata de una red compleja de factores, es indispensable
promover intervenciones simultáneas. Lo contrario podría
derivar en políticas individuales que no logren resultados
eficaces. Este artículo propone, desde un punto de vista
basado en las evidencias actuales sobre la obesidad y su desarrollo,
una nueva perspectiva internacional para enfrentar
esta epidemia.
