Özet
<p>The incidence of obesity, which is one of the most important health problems with the effect of the advancing world system, has increased dramatically in both adults and children in recent years. Obesity is usually caused by restricted movement and irregularity between energy intake/expenditure, and environmental conditions play a role in obesity, while studies reveal that genetic factors have an important effect as well as other factors that trigger obesity. Obesity paves the way for the formation of many metabolic diseases. Obesity, together with hypertension, insulin resistance, high triglyceride, and low HDL concentrations, is part of the metabolic syndrome. Although the amount of energy consumed by the consumed food is increased in many ways, it is thought that even if each activity is designed with the same intensity for similar individuals, differences in genetic factors create different results. Obesity not only increases the likelihood of risk factors for various diseases but also reduces the quality of life of individuals. This situation brings with it a lot of financial burdens. This review includes the examination of studies on the analysis of genetic factors of obesity, which is a global problem.</p>
