Obesity is a global health hazard and has been linked to numerous disorders such as dyslipidemia, type II diabetes, cardio vascular diseases and derangement of pulmonary functions.

These parameters measured between obese and non obese groups were statistically analysed using student 't' test. Changes in expiratory time was statistically extremely significant ('p' 0.05).
