The Lancet Commission on Obesity

The Lancet Commission on Obesity is a team of experts who study how excess weight affects health worldwide. They examine what causes obesity, such as unhealthy diets, lack of activity, and social factors, and how it increases the risk of diseases like diabetes, heart problems, and certain cancers. Their goal is to identify effective ways to prevent and treat obesity, promoting healthier environments, policies, and lifestyles. By sharing their findings, they aim to reduce the global burden of obesity and improve overall well-being through informed strategies and actions.
