Abstract

It is known that overweight / obesity is a factor of risk demonstrated for a multitude of diseases metabolic, cardiovascular, visceral and osteoarticular. In addition, there is growing literature evidence that relates obesity with an acceleration of the process of lumbar disc degeneration and this with the presence of chronic low back pain. Currently, obesity is defined based on the BMI, which can be calculated by means of a simple formula that relates the weight of the individual in kilograms with its height in meters raised to square (BMI = Kg /m2) [1-3].
