The recent view is that obesity is a behavioural disorder (Hoebel, 1971; Schachter, 1968), which is caused by uncontrolled eating. The obese individuals respond more readily to the external stimuli i.e.clock time than to internal stimuli like gastric contractions and hunger. Obesity is a result of abnormalities such as hypothalamus, endocrinopathies, abnormal dietary habits and genetic tendencies.
