Individuals with obesity are vulnerable to infectious diseases. Obesity is considered a risk factor for both susceptibility to infections and the severity of the disease. According to statistics, obesity is associated with a higher risk of surgical site infections due to delayed wound healing, which facilitates the entry and growth of microorganisms. Obese patients also have an increased risk of developing infections and sepsis. Additionally, obesity is linked to a higher incidence of pneumonia, including community-acquired pneumonia.

Overweight management is critical issue as being overweight increases the risk of developing diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. In Taiwan, obesity is defined as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 27. The most effective way to prevent obesity is to maintain a BMI below 27 to reduce the risk of illness.
