title: [Hungarian Diet and Nutritional Status Survey 2014. I. Nutritional status of the Hungarian adult population].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The Hungarian Diet and Nutritional Status Survey examines the obesity prevalence, dietary habits and, since 2014, physical activity in Hungarian adults in every 5 years.
  
  
  METHODS
  The survey provides national data representative by age and gender, based on anthropometric measurements and international standards.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In 2014, nearly two-thirds of adults were overweight or obese. 28.2% of men and 31.5% of women were obese. Prevalence of morbid obesity were 2.6% and 3.3% in men and women, respectively. Abdominal obesity was more prevalent among women than men (55% vs. 38%), and the rate was increasing with age in both genders. In elderly, 55% of men and almost 80% of women were abdominally obese.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In conclusion, the prevalence of overweight, obesity, and abdominal obesity is high in Hungarian adults. In order to tackle obesity, we need to obtain representative and measured data, which form the basis of targeted interventions and the assessment of their impact. Orv. Hetil., 2017, 158(14), 533-540.
