摘要：The objective of the study was evaluation of the prevalence of overweight, obesity and abdominal obesity among adult rural population in the Lublin Region, and the relationship between the occurrence of obesity, and selected socio-economic factors. The study covered a random sample of 2,260 rural inhabitants ¨C 1,390 females and 870 males; mean age 51.6. Overweight and obesity was diagnosed in 60% of the total number of the population examined (63.1% of males and 58% of females). Overweight was more frequently observed in males, while obesity more often occurred in females. The number of people with overweight and obesity increased with age.
