Tackling obesity in the UK
Tackling obesity in the UKâWith concern growing that the Foresight analysisâthat 50% of the UK population could be obese by 2050, at an annual cost to the nation of around ÂŁ50 billion per year [2]âsubstantially underestimates the scale of the unfolding obesity crisis, the College of Contemporary Health is working with the wider policy community to develop a whole systems map of the obesity crisis and the potential responses.âF1CEB7

Tackling obesity
Tackling obesityâMany policy interventions have been suggested to address the obesity crisis across multiple studiesâand indeed many such measures have been implemented, and are being implemented, now. Theres recognition too that these interventions need to be part of a coherent and comprehensive whole systems strategy [4]; with some grounds for optimism that such an approach has the potential to accomplish a significant reduction in the prevalence of obesity in the UK across the next decade.

Develop a coherent fiscal, regulatory and governance frameworkâTake every opportunity, iteratively over time, to bring the public fiscal, regulatory and governance framework into alignment with public health goals on obesity. Use taxes, subsidies, targets and pricing signals to incentivise change in behaviour, supply and consumption by aligning measures with the health properties of food and drink and behaviourâand seek, wherever practical, to amplify positive patterns that are aligned with the policy goals and damp those that pull against.â5CA4D9

The Obesity Paradox: higher BMI may not always be bad »
The Obesity Paradox: higher BMI may not always be bad
The Obesity Paradox: higher BMI may not always be badâResearch suggests that while being underweight and highly obese are both associated with increased mortality relative to the normal weight category, being overweight is not associated with excess mortality. Moreover, people with obesity who have preserved fitness and have no notable metabolic abnormalities have a very favourable prognosis; suggesting that improving fitness rather than weight loss per se should be emphasised in patients with overweight and class I obesity (BMI 30â35 kg/m2).âFFFACD

Auszug -
Rising rates of overweight and obesity are of serious concern in Canada. Until recently, discussion of policy options to promote healthier lifestyles has ignored the topic of direct financial incentives. The idea of paying people to lose weight or adopt healthier behaviours is now attracting study and debate. Some governments and companies are already experimenting with reward programs.
Available evidence indicates that financial incentives help promote short-term change, but there is a dearth of evidence on longer-term programs and outcomes. Targeted incentives for specific risk groups have shown more success. With creative design, targeted use and evaluation, financial incentives for weight loss and healthy behaviour may be a useful addition to the health policy toolkit.

Auszug -
NHS England is set to introduce incentives for losing weight as part of plans to reduce sickness absence in the workforce, it has revealed.
As part of its new five-year plan, NHS England said it will âmeasure staff health and wellbeingâ and introduce âvoluntary work-based weight watching and health schemesâ.
It said the schemes it was planning to use were proven to âachieve sustaintable weight loss in more than a third of those who take partâ.
