Special Editions

Obesity Research – Open Journal (OROJ) is an online open journal that focuses on obesity and its prevention strategies, as well as epidemiological, translational, and clinical research.

Obesity is one of the world’s most serious health issues. Obesity, also known as being overweight, is the abnormal accumulation of fat in the body, which raises health risks such as diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, osteoarthritis, cancer, and many others. Obesity is usually caused by overeating, but other factors such as genetic makeup, sedentary lifestyle, and so on can also contribute.

However, Openventio aims to disseminate all dietary details to the scientific community through its Open Journal for its welfare and control.
