According to the World Health Organization’s data, obesity is one of the main risk factors for the human health, especially in so called “mature age”, that is in forties and fi ftees of the human’s life. There are many causes of obesity, and the most common ones are unadequate or excessive nutrition, low quality food rich in fats and highly caloric sweetener, unsuffi cient physical activity – hypokinesy, but also technical and technological development of the modern World (TV, cell phones, elevators, cars etc.).
