A comprehensive report published in The Lancet highlights that obesity has now overtaken hunger as the top global health threat, with more than one billion people classified as clinically obese. This issue is not isolated to one region; countries around the world are grappling with the consequences. Illinois, for example, is facing a significant obesity crisis, as noted by Dr. Tim Sandle. The UK is also struggling, with calls for an effective national obesity strategy to avoid financial ruin. Similarly, India, traditionally associated with hunger, is now facing an obesity epidemic alongside lifestyle diseases. In Australia, over one third of adults are reported to be obese, underlining the widespread nature of this health concern.
