Authors: Sreepriya S , M. THIRUMAL* AND KAMARAJ R

ABSTRACT
Obesity poses a grave risk to global health because of the high morbidity and mortality it causes. Dietary interventions are essential to its control, and dietary protein's contribution to the decline in obesity has received a lot of attention. In conclusion, increasing dietary protein consumption is essential for reducing obesity. By increasing energy expenditure, controlling appetite, and preserving lean body mass, high-protein diets can aid in weight loss. Protein should be included in an obesity treatment strategy, but personal dietary choices, medical issues, and general dietary patterns should also be taken into consideration. Overall, the relevance of dietary protein as a component of all-encompassing weight management techniques is highlighted by the function it plays in reducing obesity. An overview of the state of knowledge regarding the connection between the consumption of protein from food and the prevention and management of obesity is presented in this review. Keywords: Dietary protein, obesity, prevalence, lifestyle interventions, management and prevention
