Alarming figures on Indian obesity Letter Published in The National Uae on 2July 13
I was shocked to read in Delhi bellies are getting bigger (July 1) that, by 2015, 31 per cent of Indian men will be overweight.
This is mainly due to the economic improvement over the past decade among middle class people, and changing eating habits.
Indians are now consuming more sweets and other high-calorie items, and it is alarming that they will be more prone to develop certain health disorders.
