All adults overweight in every 5th Indian household: Study

A recent study reveals that nearly 20% of Indian households have all adults classified as overweight, while 10% are obese. States like Manipur and Kerala show over 30% of households with all adults overweight. Researchers emphasize the need for family-centered obesity prevention strategies, as obesity clusters within families significantly increase the risk of non-communicable diseases like diabetes and heart conditions. A recent study reveals that nearly 20% of Indian households have all adults classified as overweight, while 10% are obese.
