Sažetak

Noncommunicable diseases have been the leading cause of death in many countries, including Croatia. Overweight is an important risk factor for the occurrence, commonly as a result of poor lifestyle. Establishment of the counseling services for the prevention and treatment of overweight and obesity in adults in public health institutes was in Strategic Plan of Public Health Development in Croatia 2013.-2015., but it was not operationalized. The aim of this paper was to make a snapshot of the availability of information about the counseling service for the prevention and treatment of overweight and obesity in adults in public health institutes in Croatia by searching the Internet. Counseling service was present in Croatian Institute of Public Health and in 10 public health institutes. Programs of non-governmental organizations and other institutions also have been available, some of them on commercial basis in 7 (out of 11) counties without counseling service in the public health institutes. Due to observed unequal access, regulation and standardization of counseling services in public health institutes and personnel and financial support is necessary that equal professional help would be available.
