The potential existence of MHO is a much-examined hypothesis in the field of science, but is, at least on the level of the population, a repeatedly refuted paradox despite the occasional inconsistency of scientific data. Excessive body weight by itself presents a risk factor for chronic diseases, but when the metabolic syndrome is also present, the risk is significantly higher. There exist researches that suggest the opposite; that an individual can be overweight and without metabolic risk factors and still be healthy, especially if they are regularly physically active. This, seemingly benign condition, is most likely related with the inconsistent criteria of MHO and various methods of measuring obesity, making the topic even more controversial in public. There is also a growing percentage of increased fattiness with normal weight ("sarcopenic obesity" or SD), which also presents an increased risk to health. The aim of the article is to untangle the ambivalence of the obtained conclusions of different scientific researches on the topic of MHO and sarcopenic obesity and to do so through a relative overview of scientific literatureV znanstveni in strokovni literaturi ter v javnosti lahko zasledimo potencialni obstoj stanja prekomerne telesne teže ali klinične debelosti brez prisotnosti metabolnega sindroma ("metabolno zdrava debelost" oz. MZD). Potencialen obstoj MZD je v znanosti pogosto preučevana hipoteza, vendar je ta, kljub občasni nekonsistentnosti znanstvenih dokazov, vsaj na nivoju populacije vedno znova ovržen paradoks. Prekomerna telesna teža samostojno predstavlja dejavnik tveganja za kronične bolezni, v kolikor pa je prisoten še metabolni sindrom, se tveganje značilno poveča. Obstajajo raziskave, ki nakazujejo nasprotno, torej da je posameznik lahko prekomerno težak in brez metabolnih dejavnikov tveganja in še vedno zdrav, sploh če je redno telesno dejaven. To, na videz benigno stanje, je najverjetneje povezano z neenotnim kriterijem MZD in različnimi metodami merjenja debelosti, s čimer tematika v javnosti postane še bolj kontroverzna. Obstaja tudi vse večji delež povečane zamaščenosti pri normalni telesni teži ("sarkopenična debelost" oz. SD), ki prav tako predstavlja povečano tveganje za zdravje. Namen članka je skozi relativni pregled znanstvene literature razbremeniti protislovnost dobljenih zaključkov različnih znanstvenih raziskav na temo MZD in SDTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za šport
