The British medical journal The Lancet on March 31 reported that the number of obese adults worldwide is 650 million people, accounting for 13% of the world's adult population.
At the current rate of disease development, the proportion of obese people will increase to 20% of the population by 2025.
Professor Majid Ezzati, of Imperial College London in the UK, estimates that in the past 40 years, the world has moved from a situation where the number of underweight people is twice as high as the number of obese people to a situation where people are more obese than underweight people. .
The study is based on data surveying 19 million people aged 18 and over living in 186 countries.
According to statistics, the number of obese adults in 2014 has reached 641 million, of which 375 million are women and 266 million men. In 1975, the number of obese people was 105 million. The number of obese men tripled between 1975 and 2014, and the number in women doubled.
By 2025, it is estimated that 20% of the world's population will be obese, of which 6% are men and 9% of women have severe disease.
The prevalence of obesity varies from country to country. The group of rich countries including the US, UK, Australia, Canada, Ireland and New Zealand has 118 million obese people, accounting for one-fifth of all obese adults worldwide.
However, the highest rates of obesity in the country belong to two Pacific island nations, Polynesia and Micronesia, with 38% obese men and 50% obese women.
The reason for the high number of obese people is due to the explosion of industrial foods rich in sugar and fat, and genetic factors also play an important part.
It has become a major public health problem in middle-income countries in the Pacific, the Middle East, North Africa, South America and the Caribbean.
Professor Majid Ezzati warned that without rapid implementation of measures to combat obesity worldwide, the consequences for the health sector are unpredictable. In fact, obesity increases the risk of several diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and high blood pressure.
