Confronting obesity in Belgium

© The Economist
Intelligence Unit Limited 2015 Sponsored by CONFRONTING OBESITY IN BELGIUM Taking action to change the default setting A country case study by The Economist Intelligence Unit As a window on Europe’s obesity epidemic, Belgium represents neither the worst-case scenario nor the best. According to figures from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), 13.7% of Belgian adults were estimated to be obese in 2013, compared with an OECD average of 15.5%.1 Like its European neighbours, Belgium suffers from a growing weight problem. Unlike many of them, however, Belgium is characterised by a number of anomalies that make the problem more challenging to combat, experts say. Principal among these are the country’s regional divisions between the French-speaking Walloon Region and the Flemish-speaking parts of the country, which have traditionally resulted in different outcomes for the country’s different populations. Regional divisions and their impact A 2014 study2 that examined data from four reports of the Belgian Health Interview Survey between 1997 and 2008 found that the Walloon Region had a higher prevalence of obesity than the Flemish Region at the start of the study; however, prevalence in the Walloon Region remained stable over the survey period, while obesity levels in the Flemish Region increased during that time. This split has not only been the source of inequalities and economic rivalries, but it has also resulted in a curious division of labour with regard to health policy, according to Dr Bart Van der Schueren, an assistant professor at the University of Leuven. “The problem, first of all, is that prevention is a regional responsibility,” he notes. “Any other intervention—curative treatment for diabetes, for example—is federal. So the regional government makes a certain decision, and then this is opposed by the federal government.” This apparent disconnect is exacerbated by a financing system which, arguably, provides mixed incentives, Dr Van der Schueren adds, noting that “bariatric surgery is fully reimbursed, while the entire set-up around it—from dieticians to psychologists—is not reimbursed, so you have no nutritionists to follow up.” 1 OECD, OECD Health Statistics 2015. Available at: http://www.oecd.org/ els/health-systems/health- data.htm 2 Drieskens, S, Van der Heyden, J et al, “Is the different time trend (1997-2008) of the obesity prevalence among adults in the three Belgian regions associated with lifestyle changes?” Archives of Public Health, 2014 Jun 2;72(1):18, pp. 3-4.

2 © The
Economist Intelligence Unit Limited 2015 CONFRONTING OBESITY IN BELGIUM Taking action to change the default setting Perceptions versus reality This policy approach is especially notable in light of the results of a recent survey by the European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO) about national perceptions regarding the condition.3 More than three-quarters of Belgian respondents (77%) say they believe obesity is caused by lifestyle choices, while just 46% describe it as a disease. However, this masks the fact that Belgians aged between 18 and 34 are far more likely to see obesity as a genetic or psychological condition than those over 55. Yet some of the lack of clarity in policymaking is likely to be due in part to a lack of urgency about the scale of the problem. The EASO survey finds that 37% of Belgian respondents who describe themselves as overweight are actually obese, a smaller percentage than in Finland and Germany, but larger than in France or Italy.4 As in other countries, an unhealthy diet and a more sedentary lifestyle clearly play a role in the growth of obesity in Belgium, and once again, regional differences are a major factor. The 2014 study that examined data from four reports of the Belgian Health Interview Survey between 1997 and 2008 found differences in health promotion and prevention at the regional level. Between 2002 and 2006 Flemish health officials launched a campaign with the main goal of strengthening self-esteem; only after 2008 did healthy eating and increased physical activity become central to the campaign. By contrast, campaigns in the Walloon and Brussels regions launched between 2005 and 2010 included both healthy eating and lifestyles.5 There is also a National Food and Health Plan6 , but it focuses on nutrition rather than a comprehensive strategy to tackle obesity. Dr Van der Schueren highlights that the lack of a more comprehensive strategy—and, notably, the absence of incentives to encourage greater overall mobility—offer a stark contrast with other European countries. “You need an overall policy—compare it with Netherlands, where they are all on their bikes,” he says. “Mobility is not a priority, and sporting facilities are bad; some communities don’t have a public swimming pool.” The absence of a comprehensive strategy, meanwhile, extends beyond the weakness of preventative programmes, Dr Van der Schueren adds. The Belgian government recently decided to introduce a sugar tax on soft drinks, which is due to take effect in 2016 and will add 3 euro cents to the price of a one-litre bottle of such drinks. The tax also applies to diet products, including those that are sugar- free, which has led to significant debate about the goal of the policy—and in particular, whether it is primarily about tackling obesity or intended to raise government revenue. The Belgian public health minister, Maggie De Block—a former general practitioner, who is herself obese and, given her position, has been the focus of controversy—has stated that it is difficult to differentiate between soft-drink categories in the initial legislation.7 “[The government] claims it imposed the sugar tax as part of an overall approach to obesity and co- morbidities, but you get the impression that it had a problem with the budget and quickly imposed it for that reason,” Dr Van der Schueren says. 3 European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO), Obesity, an underestimated threat: public perceptions of obesity in Europe, May 2015, pp. 16-18. 4 Ibid., p. 8. 5 Drieskens et al, “Is the different time trend (1997-2008) of the obesity prevalence among adults in the three Belgian regions associated with lifestyle changes?”, p. 8. 7 “De Block over suikertaks: ‘Ik was van plan om te wachten’”, Het Laatste Nieuws, October 12th 2015.
