The same goes for food. You need to listen to your body and its needs and also be aware of any allergies, intolerances, or deficiencies that you might have.

Obesity is a major issue that affects a huge number of people worldwide
As per the World Health Organization, 1 in 8 people were living with obesity worldwide in 2022. Adult obesity has doubled compared to 1990 while adolescent obesity has quadrupled.
In 2022, around 2.5 billion adults worldwide were overweight, of which 890 million were obese. Globally, 43% of adults were overweight and 16% were obese that year. A jaw-dropping 37 million children under 5 years old were overweight around the world in 2022.
It’s not just your lifestyle that can affect your weight, fitness, and how quickly you store and burn fat. Your genetics, underlying health conditions, and the medicine you take are also important factors. Losing weight requires that you move more and ingest slightly fewer calories. The NHS recommends regularly exercising between 2.5 to 5 hours each week.
Over time, you’ll lose weight and gain more muscle mass. But the biggest victory here is —arguably—developing healthy habits and living life with more energy, courage, and confidence. However, you likely won’t develop those habits if the people closest to you constantly criticize you instead of supporting you or showing a positive example of healthy living.
