Because eating too much but exercising is too little, obesity is becoming a problem everywhere. Experts warn about its effects on health and health costs.

Obesity is prevalent in rich countries such as the UK and the US, which is gradually replacing smokers. With the current trend, there will be about 7.8 million more people with diabetes, 6.8 million with heart disease and stroke, 539,000 people with cancer in the United States by 2030.

According to a team led by Claire Wang of Columbia University (USA), there are currently about 32% of men, 35% of women are obese in the US.

Meanwhile, in the UK, the incidence of obesity in both men and women is 26%. However, by 2030, this number will increase to 41-48% in men, 35-43% in women. About 668,000 people with diabetes, 461,000 people with heart disease, and 130,000 people with cancer.

Around the world, about 1.5 billion adults are overweight, and more than half a billion people are obese with 170 children who are obese or overweight. Obesity accounts for 2 to 6% of medical costs in many countries.

Every year, the US has to spend US $ 66 billion of medical expenses due to obesity, in the UK is US $ 2 billion

Increasing the supply of delicious, cheap and nutritious food is also the cause of obesity. Health experts also called on the government to adopt policies such as high taxes on high-fat foods and beverages to reduce obesity.
