Obesity is one of the
biggest public health crises facing the UK today, affecting one in four UK
adults. Being overweight or obese increases the risk of many other serious
illnesses, such as Type 2 Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer and
infertility. Additionally, it can have a significant impact on a person’s
wellbeing and mental health.
