Report on obesity may Surprise you but it’s true. New survey conducted by NGO found that 30% children are obese means 1 out of 3 children is suffering from obesity today.
In 2006 total 24% adults are aged 16 or above in England were obese. In compare to 1993 report only 15% are categorized in obese. This report tells both men and women are obese.
Women are more likely to be morbidly 3% than compared to men 1%. Means women are not interested in losing weight.
37% per cent of adults had a raised waist circumference in 2006 compared to 23% in 1993.Women were more likely than men to have a raised waist circumference (41% and 32% respectively).
There is unbelievable rise in waist circumference of men and women in 2006. 37% adults were having waist more than normal compared to 23% in 1993. I have mentioned the range of normal waist size in previous post.
By evaluating both BMI and waist circumference we can asses risk of health problems, around 20% were estimated to be at increased risk , 13% at high risk and 21% at very high risk.
Running in parallel to men, women are 14% at increased risk, 16 % at high risk and 23% at very high risk.
If we talk about children obesity in 2006, 16% of children aged 2 to 15 were obese.
You can imagine how obesity has surrounded our country.
