Obesity in China 3 Health policy and public health implications of obesity in China

Youfa Wang et al.

Summary: China has experienced significant social, economic, and lifestyle changes since the 1990s, leading to a rise in obesity rates. Despite efforts to tackle obesity, the country still faces challenges in controlling the epidemic and the associated burden on the healthcare system. The Healthy China 2030 national strategy provides an opportunity for China to establish comprehensive national strategies for addressing obesity, but strong commitment and leadership from central and local governments, as well as active participation from all sectors of society, are needed.
