This infographic discusses the facts surrounding obesity as well as actionable ways to not just “treat” obesity but also prevent it. On top of every other people eating unhealthy foods and the increase in sales of melatonin supplements at AstroNutrition as well as 10 best weight loss supplements, obesity is far more than a #health condition. This was submitted by Maria O’Driscoll of Union Quay Medical Centre

In 2014, an estimated 600 million adults worldwide, plus 40 million children under the age of five, were classified as obese, with the global prevalence of obesity having doubled since 1980. These figures are alarming and people need to be educated on what they can do to combat obesity.

This infographic from Union Quay Medical Centre http://www.unionquaymedicalcentre.ie/ outlines the causes of obesity and gives a list of foods that, if avoided, would help to reduce the risk of obesity. It also outlines recommended portion sizes for a healthy diet and provides tips for getting proper exercise.
