Highlights of this title
Increased consumption of beverages is contributing to increased calorie intake. In the US in 1965 beverages accounted for just 12 percent of daily energy intake but by 2002, this number had jumped to 21 percent. This increase in consumption is not being offset by a reduction in calories from food.
Across the whole Asia Pacific region, over two thirds of consumers were trying to lose weight even though only half considered themselves overweight. In South Korea, which has the lowest levels of obesity, 90 percent were trying to lose weight. In Asia, consumers are more likely to control weight through diet than exercise.
“Obesogenic” environments are contributing to the growth of obesity. Among the key causes are the imbalance between calories consumed and energy used. This imbalance is pronounced by social and cultural factors including the heightened need for convenience and pressure on time.
