Situation and Trends
SubSaharan Africa (SSA) is not immune to the obesity epidemic, despite the continued burden of undernutrition in many SSA countries Causes.
Increases in the rates of overweight and obesity are being identified in SSA, especially among women and people dwelling in urban populations Outcomes.
A study by Ziraba et al. (Ziraba et al., 2009) found that prevalence of overweight and obesity grew by almost one-third between 1992 and 2005 in a sample of women from SSA countries.
The prevalence of obesity in urban West Africa more than doubled (increased 114%) from 1995 to 2005(Mbanya and Ramiaya, 2006).
Problems
Overweight and obesity are risk factors for a number of non-communicable diseases (NCD), including heart disease, hypertension and cancer.
Accordingly, as rates of overweight and obesity rise in SSA and the rest of the developing world, rates of NCD are on the rise as well.
WHO has predicted that NCD deaths will increase by 17% over the next decade, with the greatest increase in the African region (27%) (WHO, 2010a).
The ‘double threat’ of communicable disease (CD) and NCD to the people in developing countries calls for the development of creative health interventions across the continuum of care.
