With 44.6% of women in UAE will be obese by 2015


In a clearer interpretation to the latest official UAE Health Ministry calculations recording that 44.6% of women in UAE will be obese by 2015, surgical centers are recording an escalation in the percentage of patients, especially Emirati's, opting for fitness surgery services as an alternative to gym exertions and labors of fitness centers.

UAE Health Ministry calculations do not stand alone. The available study released by the World Health Organization (WHO) demonstrate findings that show 67% of Emirati men and 72% of Emirati women are overweight.

More disturbingly, approximately 39.9% of Emirati women are obese, ranking the seventh highest in the world, while 25.6% of men are obese, ranking the ninth highest.
