Abstract

The study analyzes a CDC dataset on US adult obesity and physical activity from 2011 to 2022. Despite rising obesity rates and insufficient fruit consumption, physical activity levels are increasing and overweight rates are slightly declining. The role of ultra-processed food intake, price sensitivity, early eating habits, and stress in obesity is highlighted. The findings suggest a complex obesity epidemic, indicating the need for multifaceted solutions such as regulating ultra-processed foods, improving access to healthy foods, and promoting healthy eating habits from childhood.

美国的肥胖：探索肥胖率上升与体育锻炼增加的悖论。

该研究分析了美国疾病控制与预防中心2011年至2022年美国成年人肥胖和体育活动的数据集。尽管肥胖率上升，水果消费量不足，但体育活动水平正在增加，超重率略有下降。超加工食品的摄入、价格敏感性、早期饮食习惯和压力在肥胖中的作用被强调。研究结果表明，肥胖是一种复杂的流行病，需要采取多方面的解决方案，如管制超加工食品，改善健康食品的获取途径，以及从童年开始促进健康的饮食习惯。

期刊介绍： The aim of Obesity Research & Clinical Practice (ORCP) is to publish high quality clinical and basic research relating to the epidemiology, mechanism, complications and treatment of obesity and the complication of obesity. Studies relating to the Asia Oceania region are particularly welcome, given the increasing burden of obesity in Asia Pacific, compounded by specific regional population-based and genetic issues, and the devastating personal and economic consequences. The journal aims to expose health care practitioners, clinical researchers, basic scientists, epidemiologists, and public health officials in the region to all areas of obesity research and practice. In addition to original research the ORCP publishes reviews, patient reports, short communications, and letters to the editor (including comments on published papers). The proceedings and abstracts of the Annual Meeting of the Asia Oceania Association for the Study of Obesity is published as a supplement each year.
