Produktbeschreibung
Obesity is one of the major risk factors for oral disease and is a serious social problem that has reached epidemic proportions in many developed countries. Improper lifestyle is responsible in 70% for the risk of obesity, and only 30% of the risk is attributable to genetic factors.

Adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ, and it performs many important functions in the body, in which the cells of adipose tissue, called adipocytes, secrete dozens of biologically active molecules (adipokines), which can significantly modulate reactions occurring in the body.

And that way Obesity is a complex disease, and its relationship to oral status has been realized by the scientific community in recent years.
