Weight Loss refers to the reduction of total body mass, typically through the loss of fat, muscle, or water, and is often pursued for health, medical, or aesthetic reasons. Scientific research into weight loss spans a range of disciplines, including nutrition, endocrinology, exercise physiology, and behavioral science.
