• More than one-third (36.5%) of U.S. adults have obesity.
• Worldwide obesity has nearly doubled since 1980.
• 65% of the world’s population live in countries where overweight and obesity kills more people than underweight.
• Overweight and obesity are the fifth leading risk for global deaths. At least 2.8 million adults die each year as a result of being overweight or obese.
• 44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the ischaemic heart disease burden and between 7% and 41% of certain cancer burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity.
• More than 40 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2011.
• The estimated annual medical cost of obesity in the U.S. was $147 billion in 2008 U.S. dollars; the medical costs for people who have obesity were $1,429 higher than those of normal weight.
• The obese suffer from greater levels of hypertension, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, high cholesterol, diabetes, osteoporosis, sexual dysfunction, immune dysfunction, birth defects, cancers, and depression than the non-obese.
