The data published by the 2012 ENRICA study (Study on Nutrition and Cardiovascular Risk in Spain) showed that obesity affects up to 23.1 % of men and 16.3 % of women between 18 and 64 years of age. For its part, the DORICA study (Dyslipidemia, Obesity and Cardiovascular Risk in Spain), carried out in 2004, noted that the prevalence of obesity was higher in women (17.5 %) than men (13.2 %).
As part of the ANIBES Study, the objective of this work is to analyze objective data on anthropometric measures and to provide updated information on the prevalence of overweight, general and abdominal obesity among a representative sample of the adult Spanish population.
The results of this study will allow us to have an understanding of the current anthropometric situation of the Spanish population, as a first step in planning interventions and assessing their effectiveness in the future.
