Being overweight and obese is associated with risk of numerous comorbidities which are leading causes of disability and death, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and many types of cancer. Methods: Study were based on legislative documents, economics and statistics reports. Results: According to World Health Organization (WHO) obesity rate in Kazakhstan is about 21% of population. In 2012, Kazakh Academy of Nutrition promulgated the results of national research in overweight and obesity situation among adults and children. The prevalence of overweight and obesity among adults was 46.3 percent and 21.8 percent, respectively [4].Comparing with the similar research proceeded in 2002, the prevalence of pathology increased by 25 percent. However, these figures are questionable, as existing information systems are not adapted to proper registration patients with overweight and obesity so this figure can be increased even doubled.[5][6].
