Target interventions across the whole course of life
Tackling obesity effectively requires the adoption of a life course approach – from pre-conception through pregnancy, infancy, early years, childhood, adolescence and teenage years, and through to adulthood and preparing for older age. There are specific opportunities and challenges at each stage of the life course and action is needed at all ages to avert the short- and long-term consequences of excess weight and to ensure that health inequalities are addressed.
