51 Percent Of The World’s Population Is Expected To Be Obese Or Overweight By The Year 2035
More than half of the world’s population will be obese or overweight by 2035, according to a new report from the World Obesity Federation.
In the 2023 World Obesity Atlas report, the organization projected that 51% of the global population will be “living with overweight and obesity within 12 years if prevention, treatment and support do not improve.”
If current trends prevail, the report also predicts childhood obesity could more than double compared to 2020 levels.

“Rates are predicted to double among boys to 208 million (100% increase) and more than double among girls to 175 million (125% increase) and are rising more rapidly among children than adults,” the report states.
The World Health Organization defines overweight and obesity “as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. A body mass index (BMI) over 25 is considered overweight, and over 30 is obese.”
The increases forecast in the report would mean 1 in 4 people will be living with obesity, compared to 1 in 7 today.
“How when hitting the gym is becoming a trend,” someone commented. “Shii at least nigga ain’t starving,” another person wrote.
