12845802, the nutritional dual-burden Posted by akon, Mon Jul-06-15 05:03 AM
it gives one much pause for thought countries in which under-weight and over-weight occurs concurrently a good example is south africa - i see kenya listed in your post (although walking around nairobi- people here are really small. i often wonder where the 12% is - i'd assume it would be a more visible population) certainly when i was in cape-town, obesity was very much more visible mexico also has an obesity problem - part of it might also be physical size.
but.. this shit is real the question is how does one even effectively handle this? also... one would assume that overweight would mainly affect the wealthier, urban classes but apparently this is not (always) the case
