Abstract
Obesity and related chronic diseases have become major public health problems in China and in the world. While a series of prevention and control policies and action plans have been implemented in China, obesity and related chronic diseases have not been effectively controlled yet. The Obesity Prevention and Control Section of the Chinese Nutrition Society facilitated the cooperation of 34 interdisciplinary leading experts in drafting this consensus based on the latest relevant guidelines and research results in China and from overseas. The consensus report aims to help guide the prevention and treatment of obesity in China, promote the participation of the whole society and contribute to 'Healthy China' national goals. This report includes seven chapters. It outlines the prevalence and main contributing factors of obesity, challenges, obesity screening and diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control during the whole life cycle, comprehensive prevention and control strategies involving the whole society, and recommendations for future work in China. This report will help promote obesity prevention and weight management efforts in China to be more scientific and effective.
