The obesity rate in China is 202 1 male and female.

The Dietary Index of China Residents (2022) shows that at present, the proportion of overweight or obesity among Chinese adults is over half (50.7%), and the overweight and obesity rates of children and adolescents under 6 years old and 6 to 17 years old are 10.4% and 19.0% respectively. The overweight rate and obesity rate of residents aged 18 and above were 34.3% and 16.4% respectively.

In other words, the number of obese people in China ranks first in the world. In a country with a population of 65.438+0.4 billion, the number of overweight or obese adult residents is about 500 million-more than the entire population of the United States!

One of the important reasons is that Chinese residents consume too much fat, and the average dietary fat energy supply ratio exceeds 30%.

According to WHO standards, there are three main indicators to judge obesity:

Body mass index: Body mass index = weight (kg)/ height (m) squared, and the normal range is 18-24. If it exceeds 24, it is overweight; If it is over 28, it belongs to obesity.

Waist circumference: male waist circumference is no more than 85cm;; Female waist circumference does not exceed 80 cm.

Body fat rate: the proportion of adipose tissue in the body, more than 25% for men and more than 30% for women, is obesity.

"Get fat first, then get rich", which is a little scary!

Just like the aging crisis brought by "getting old before getting rich", "getting fat before getting rich" also poses a great challenge to the social governance of national physical and mental health.

The World Health Organization has officially defined obesity as a disease, which lurks in the upstream of the disease and is the source of all diseases, and many diseases are related to it.

Medical circles call obesity-related coronary heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes and cerebrovascular diseases "death quintet".

The Lancet once published that the average life expectancy of obese people with body mass index above 35 is 8 years less than that of normal weight people, and the healthy life expectancy is less 19 years.

The research data show that in 20 19 years, the number of cardiovascular deaths attributed to high body mass index was 549,500, the age-standardized mortality rate of cardiovascular diseases attributed to high body mass index was 38.64/65438+ 10,000, and 1 1.98% of cardiovascular deaths were attributed to high body mass index.

Among many diseases caused by obesity, diabetes is the most obvious disease that affects people in China. About 463 million adults in the world suffer from diabetes, of which 1. 1.6 million patients come from China, accounting for 25%.

In addition to physical influence, obese people will also encounter mental health diseases such as inferiority complex, depression, social disorder and self-cognitive illusions.
