Abstract

This paper presents data collected through a questionnaire for the estimation of body dysmorphic disorder known as vigorexy, weight level and levels of exercise dependence in individuals from Barranquilla, Colombia who attend local gyms, based on their physical activity, food supplements eating habits, psychological pressure, and risk of muscle dysmorphia. The Data contains 8 tributes and 200 records; labelling obesity range according to WHO into normal, overweight or obesity. All data was collected in person and directly from users. This data can be used to generate scientific research and intelligent computational tools to identify the obesity level and muscle dysmorphia risk of an individual and to build recommender systems that monitor health and mental status.

Keywords: Body dysmorphic disorder; Food supplement; Obesity; Overweight.
