Marco Legal Sobre La Obesidad

The Observatory “will have the power to promote information campaigns on the importance of physical education. Counts of anthropometric measurements and for the prevention of obesity in the workplace are also carried out,” Bossio said. It is also intended to “include obesity in the mandatory medical regime.” One of the proposals includes treating obesity in the medical plan Obligatorio.La Senate Health Committee will begin today to discuss several bills aimed at providing a legal framework for the fight against obesity. During this first meeting, the various initiatives that define obesity as a disease, as launched by the World Health Organization, will be presented. Among other things, it is planned to oblige social and prepaid works, to cover the costs of treatment in these cases, to remedy nutritional deficiencies in school canteens and to form an obesity observatory. Members of ALCO, Inadi and the Algerian Obesity Society will be present that day. Many of the causes of overweight and obesity are preventable and reversible. So far, however, no country has managed to reverse the rise of this epidemic. Although there are other factors, the cause of obesity is an energy imbalance between calories consumed and calories consumed.

In recent decades, dietary changes have led to an increase in the consumption of foods high in calories and free sugars. Physical activity has also declined due to changing work patterns, improved access to transportation and increasing urbanization. Obesity is one aspect of the double burden of malnourished diseases; There are now more obese people than underweight people in all regions except sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. The number of overweight children under 5 has increased significantly. Based on the fund`s 2013 estimates. Being overweight can cause musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis. In addition, obesity is linked to certain cancers, including those of the endometrium, breast, ovaries, prostate, liver, gallbladder, kidney, and colon. The risk of contracting these noncommunicable diseases also increases with very mild obesity and worsens with increasing body mass index (BMI). The vast majority of overweight and obese children live in developing countries, where the rate of increase has been more than 30 per cent higher than in developing countries. Obesity among children and adolescents has increased 10-fold over the past four decades, with rates of overweight and obesity among children and adults continuing to rise. Between 1975 and 2016, the prevalence of overweight or obesity among children and adolescents aged 5 to 19 years more than quadrupled globally, from 4% to 18%. Obesity and overweight are defined as an abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat that can be harmful to health.

A body mass index (BMI) greater than 25 is considered overweight and obese over 30. The problem has reached epidemic proportions; More than four million people die each year from causes related to overweight or obesity, according to 2017 estimates of the global burden of disease. Overweight and obesity are important risk factors for some chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and stroke, which are the leading causes of death worldwide. Being overweight can also lead to diabetes and its associated conditions, including blindness, limb amputations, and the need for dialysis. Since 1980, global diabetes incidence rates have quadrupled. Obesity and overweight, once considered problems in high-income countries, are increasing significantly in low- and middle-income countries, especially in urban areas. World hunger has not decreased for three years and obesity continues to rise World Health Assembly begins: Director-General announces new initiative to end childhood obesity “The idea is to create an obesity observatory and integrate the ministries of education, health, labour and social development. With that, the idea is to have a comprehensive health plan,” said Diego Bossio, Jaque`s advisor. One of the novelties would be the discovery that food “has a legend on the packaging that says the product contains potentially harmful ingredients.

This will be determined by the observatory, which will dictate the rules of nutrition. Also in the project aims to “try to ban the sale of nutrient-poor foods with toys. In addition, legends say that if a food is dietary, it is said that if it is not controlled by a professional, the diet can be harmful to health, for example. Update on the 69th World Health Assembly Childhood obesity is associated with a variety of serious health complications and an increased risk of premature onset of related diseases. Some studies have shown that overweight children and adolescents without intervention are likely to remain obese into adulthood. Reducing the risk of overweight and obesity involves reducing the number of calories consumed in the form of fats and sugars. increase daily consumption of fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains and nuts; and regular physical activity (60 minutes per day for children and 150 minutes per week for adults). In infants, studies have shown that exclusive breastfeeding from birth to six months of age reduces the risk of overweight and obesity. In 2012, the World Health Assembly (WHA) adopted a comprehensive implementation plan for maternal, infant and infant animals. To grow up healthy, children need to spend less time sitting and playing more Recognizing that accelerated global action is needed to address the pervasive problem and.
