Overweight
According to estimates in the Health Survey for England 2021, 25,9% of adults are obese, with another 37,9% being overweight, but not obese. If these numbers are correct, almost two in three adults in the UK are overweight. Not just fast food, too much sugar and salt as well as lack of exercise can lead to overweight. Researchers are discovering more and more connections, for example between weight gain and the intestinal bacteria, our sleep and sex hormones.
