Weight Management
70% of women and a third of men are classified as overweight or obese in South Africa. This is now no longer just a concern in adults as 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 5 boys from the age of 2 are classified as overweight or obese.
Obesity is linked with numerous diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, strokes, hypertension, certain cancers and joint problems.
