OBESITY, A PLAGUE
Today we can speak of a global epidemic!
According to the WHO, more than 1.9 billion adults (or 26%) were overweight and, among them, there were 650 million obese (9%).
The numbers have continued to rise, especially since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Projections of obesity rates (BMI ≥ 30) 2017-2030 predict a 30% increase in cases solely in Canada.
