It is no secret that large parts of the developed world have populations which are becoming overweight or obese. The UK is no exception, with around 60% of the population carrying more weight than recommended. Within these figures approximately 23% of women in the UK are obese – topping the European league table of fattest nations. Men in the UK are not much better with around 22% of them being obese, only just behind Malta which tops this table. It is currently forecast that half of the UK population will be obese in 25 years if current trends continue.
