The Global Rise of Obesity: Time to Take Action

The Rising Tide of Obesity

March 4th was World Obesity Day, designated by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Obesity Federation.

 

A study published by Australia’s Murdoch Children's Research Institute in the renowned medical journal The Lancet revealed alarming statistics. In 2021, the number of overweight or obese adults (aged 25 and older) worldwide reached 2.11 billion, nearly three times the 731 million recorded in 1990.

 

If this trend continues, by 2050, 60% of the world’s adult population—3.8 billion people—will be overweight or obese. Among children and adolescents, one in three (746 million) will be affected.

 

Obesity is no longer just an individual concern—it has become a global public health crisis.

 


Can Obesity Be Overcome by Willpower Alone?

Obesity is often called "the root of all diseases", yet there is no perfect cure. The most effective solution remains a combination of diet control, exercise, and long-term lifestyle management.

 

Experts warn of an impending "obesity tsunami". However, the power to resist this wave lies in our daily habits and consistent effort.

The Common Habits of Happy and Successful People

Successful and happy individuals share certain mindsets.

Japanese self-improvement expert Toshitaka Mochizuki, in his book "3-Minute Habits to Change Tomorrow", highlights three key principles:

 

Be grateful for the past

Dream about the future

Live the present with excitement

 

Fill your past with gratitude,

Fill your future with dreams,

Fill today with enthusiasm and action.

 

A dream without action remains distant, but the moment you take action, your dream moves closer.

 

Start today for a healthier, happier tomorrow! 🚀
