Health promotion survey in overweight and obese students of universities in n...
Introduction
Overweight and obesity is one of the major health problems in the UK and worldwide. Approximately two-thirds of the population in the UK is either overweight or obese. Overweight and obesity is an important issue that causes distress to most women. Health promotion is the best method to educate overweight and obese women. It is defined as the process enabling people to increase control over and to improve their health by Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion. It is aimed to enhance the well-being of the individuals and their positive attitudes towards prevention of various diseases. In order to make any improvement to the health promotion for overweight and obesity, the risk factors and the opinions from the public should first be identified and addressed.
Methods
Cross-sectional survey design was selected with a questionnaire that consisted of 20 open and close ended questions. A sample size of 196 was determined. The data thus gathered was analyzed using SPSS V20 (Statistical Package for Social Science version 20). Descriptive statistics (fx) and (SD) were used and Chi-square X2 test for association was employed.
Results
Out of the total 196 responses, only (40%) of the students had normal weight (SD 1.1), (25%) students had a good understanding of health promotion (SD 1.6), half (50%) appeared concerned about their weight (SD 0.5), (60%) had an obese family member (0.5). The BMI of students was associated with the presence of an obese member in their family and their weight as a concern for them. (P-value <0.05).
Conclusion
The health promotion service is beneficial as it was found to have raised concerns in the mind of the students regarding over weight and obesity. However it was observed that the understanding of health promotion service was different among students and this is the root of the problem.

Introduction
Obesity is a health situation whereby the affected person(s) has fats in excessive level in the body. Some individuals are unaware of the growing incidences or number of cases related to the obesity. In the United States, there are more than 70 percent of men and 60 percent women in adult population that are overweight. The risks that are associated with obesity include the development of life-threatening diseases like heart failure, cancer, hypertension gall bladder, osteoarthritis, and the category II of diabetes (Zhao, 2013).
This paper, therefore, aims at looking at the literature review of the past studies on adult obesity. In this study, data is collected from different previous studies that have discussed adult obesity. Areas of the present research and coming research on adult obesity and its complications are also addressed in this paper.
Literature Reviews
According to the study by Goededcke and his colleague, in 7786 sampled women of ages between nineteen to ninety-five years in South Africa, the black females recorded a higher prevalent of obesity and overweight.Females of different ancestry were at 52 percent, females with the white complex at 49.2 percent while the women of Indian origin were at 42.8 percent. There was higher Body Mass Index among the women residing in the towns as compared to the women living in rural places. It was noted that the Body Mass Index increased as one age. The overall rate of obesity was higher in men (29 percent) and women (56 percent) (Goededcke, 2010).
This prevalence is higher as compared to other nations in Africa especially females because 30 percent of women in South Africa of age 30 to 59 have cases of obesity. North Africa also has a higher prevalence of obesity as South Africa
.
In his cross sectional study using 1430 rural and urban individuals from Luo, Maasai, and Kamba females of ages 17 to 68 years, Christensen and his colleagues found out that there was an increase in the inside and under skin fats, fat in the area of the arms and the waist circumference as one gets older. This was common among the Maasai females as well as in individuals in the urban areas. The incidence of the overweight BMI (≥ 25) and obesity BMI (≥ 30) was greater among people dwelling in town as compared to those in villages. The rate of the overweight was at 39.8 and 15.8 percent of the city and community areas respectively. Residents from cities recorded a higher rate of abdominal viscera and under skin fat thickness. High prevalence of overweight was due to the accumulation of fats among the Maasai (Christensen, 2011).
Report from the World Health Organization indicates that China, Asia, Indonesia, Japan, as well as Bangladesh have higher obesity prevalence. The pathological obesity in India is at five
percent of ...

The emergence of the UK low-cost gym sector
The document discusses the emergence of the low-cost gym sector in the UK. Key drivers include changing consumer sentiment towards traditional gyms with members paying high fees but rarely using facilities. Digital infrastructure and an emphasis on affordability and simplicity have enabled low-cost gyms charging as little as £12-19 per month with no long-term contracts. Customer surveys found high satisfaction with the no-frills experience provided by low-cost gyms, though some requested more staff supervision and private changing areas.

It notes that low-cost gyms operate with minimum fees that are 50% lower than industry prices, focus on simplicity and affordability over amenities, and leverage heavy technology and web use.

- 4. What is the picture at 2020?
- 5. Males and females with a body mass index greater than 30 continues to rise
- 6. How is body mass index defined?
- 7. Divide your weight in kilograms by your height in metres squared
- 8. I’m confused; give me an example?
- 9. Well, I weigh 91 kilograms and I’m 1.85 metres tall
- 10. This means my Body Mass Index is 24.5 (91 kgs/3.7)
- 11. So, how is obese defined?
- 12. This is when your Body Mass Index is greater than 30
- 13. If you’re male, the news is worse
- 14. English men are becoming obese at a faster rate than women
- 15. If you are a male and will be aged 40-65 in the year 2020, then the news gets worse still
- 16. This group is becoming obese at a faster rate
- 17. Oh dear: I’ve just this realised I’m part of this group!
- 18. …some good news; my wife, who is a similar age to me, is also in a group with rising levels of obesity!
- 19. Why does obesity matter?
- 20. …because it makes us more susceptible to ‘lifestyle’ diseases such as…
- 22. Diabetes
- 23. Stroke
- 25. Certain types of cancers
- 26. 2020 In the year 2020, 34% of English males will be obese
- 27. 2020 In the year 2020, 30% of females will be obese

- 29. How has the report been received by the general public?
- 30. Here are some comments from websites
- 31. “We have taken personal responsibility away and replaced it with State responsibility, then intervention” (benevolentdictator)
- 32. “My personal opinion is that the food & intensive production methods we eat is to blame. Long term vegans & vegetarians are seldom overweight” (Dave B)
- 33. ”And still many people try to blame obesity on genes” (KJ)
- 34. What do the report authors have to say?
- 35. 'There are already more men who are obese than who are of a healthy weight and by the end of the decade obese men and women could out-number those who are overweight Prof McPherson - Oxford University
- 36. So, if you are part of the group described in this report, what will you now do to stop becoming a researcher's statistic?
- 37. You can read the report at (heartforum.org.uk)
- 38. About Ray Algar: I provide strategic insight to organisations connected to the global health and fitness industry. I can be contacted at: insight@oxygen-consulting.co.uk
