《2025世界肥胖地图》预测表明，到2030年，全球将有近30亿成人（约占成年人口的50%）处于高BMI状态。其中，17%的男性和22%的女性将达到肥胖水平。为了帮民众甩掉“甜蜜的负担”，各国脑洞大开，快来看看都有哪些大招？
英国：菜单标注卡路里
英国要求员工数量在250人以上的餐饮店强制执行在菜单上标注卡路里，禁止高脂、高糖、高盐食品和饮料“买一送一”。来自英、美、加等国家的研究表明，菜单上的卡路里标签会导致顾客点餐时平均减少大约47千卡的热量，而商家则会把他们餐食中的平均卡路里含量减少15千卡。
希腊：学校免费营养餐“狙击”小胖墩
希腊慈善机构为全国条件最差的学校提供免费营养餐，该计划平均每年使儿童肥胖率降低40%，超重率降低1/3。这项倡议已为全国800所学校大约12万名学生免费提供了超过1700万份食品，世卫组织称这是鼓励在儿童和青少年时期形成良好饮食习惯的一个值得推广的典型。
阿联酋迪拜：减1公斤=赚1克黄金
最壕减肥激励！生活水平已经脱离地球平均水平的迪拜，在控制肥胖率这方面也十分简单粗暴。阿联酋迪拜曾推出“减肥换黄金”活动，参与者减重超2公斤即可兑换黄金，每减重1公斤即可获得1克黄金。
日本：腰围超标别想上班！
日本是第一个为控制肥胖率而立法的国家。日本政府早在2008年就实施法令，对企业员工腰围设限，立法规定40岁以上男性腰围≤85cm、女性≤90cm。腰围超标者必须去检查血压、血糖、血脂，若其中一项不合格，必须在3个月内自行减肥。如果减肥失败，必须接受饮食控制教育；而若6个月后仍然超重，则要接受再教育或自行离职。
新西兰：拒绝“胖移民”
在新西兰，肥胖是申请签证的一道门槛。南非一女子就曾因“太胖”被新西兰移民局拒签，移民官给出的理由是，她的BMI太高，体重超重，有比较高的健康风险，这会给新西兰政府资助的医疗保健系统带来很大的压力。好在她减肥成功，终获定居许可。
印度：全民瑜伽对抗肥胖
总理莫迪亲自推广瑜伽运动，以全民瑜伽的热潮，积极应对日益严峻的肥胖问题。莫迪可谓是瑜伽的“首席推销员”，2024年，正是他的积极推动，联合国将6月21日定为国际瑜伽日。
从"黄金诱惑"到"腰围立法"，在这场关乎人类健康的持久战中，中国也展现出本土化解决方案。山东省创新开展的“一评二控三减四健”（“一评”：健康评估，“二控”：控烟、控酒，“三减”：减盐、减油、减糖，“四健”：健康心理、健康体重、健康口腔、健康骨骼）全民健康生活方式行动中，开展形式多样的健康体重管理知识普及和干预活动，全省累计开展各类活动九千余次，参与总人数99.5万人，覆盖人口791.2万人。
减重是餐盘里的一勺盐、手机上的一万步，是无数个体与脂肪的无声博弈；减重也是政策文件里的医保目录、城市规划中的步行绿道，是文明社会对健康生态的系统重塑。减重看似是个人生活中的 “小事”，实则是关系全球公共卫生安全的“大事”。每一次科学减重，都是对自身健康的负责，更是为降低社会医疗负担、提升整体人口素质添砖加瓦。对抗肥胖没有单一解药，每个有效干预都是构建全民健康的关键拼图。
According to the "2025 World Obesity Atlas" prediction, by 2030, nearly 3 billion adults (about 50% of the world's adult population) will have a high BMI. Among them, 17% of men and 22% of women will be obese. To help people shed pounds,countries have come up with various strategies. Let's take a look!
United Kingdom: Calorie Labeling on Menus
The UK mandates that restaurants with over 250 employees display calorie information on their menus and prohibits "buy one, get one free" offers for high-fat, high-sugar, and high-salt foods and beverages. Studies from the UK, the US, Canada, and other countries show that calorie labels on menus lead customers to order meals with an average of about 47 fewer kilocalories, while businesses reduce the average calorie content of their meals by 15 kilocalories.
Greece: Free Nutritious School Meals to Tackle Childhood Obesity
Greek charitable organizations provide free nutritious meals to the most disadvantaged schools nationwide. This initiative has, on average, reduced the childhood obesity rate by 40% and the overweight rate by one-third annually. This initiative has provided more than 17 million servings of food for free to around 120,000 students in 800 schools nationwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) has called it a model worth promoting to encourage the development of good eating habits during childhood and adolescence.
Dubai,United Arab Emirates: Lose 1 Kg, Get 1 Gram of Gold
The most generous weight-loss incentive! Dubai, whose living standards have far surpassed the global average, has also adopted rather straightforward measures in controlling its obesity rate. Dubai once offered a "weight loss for gold" campaign. Participants who lost over 2 kg could exchange it for gold, getting 1 gram of gold for every kilogram lost.
Japan: No Overweight Employees Allowed
Japan was the first country to legislate against obesity. Since 2008, Japanese law has set waist size limits for employees: 85cm for men over 40 and 90cm for women over 40. Those who exceed these limits may be asked to "go home and lose weight," or their companies may face fines. Those with oversized waists must undergo checks for blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids. If any of these indicators fails to meet the standard, they must lose weight on their own within three months. Individuals who fail to meet weight loss targets must receive education on dietary control. If they remain overweight after six months, they must either receive further education or resign voluntarily.
New Zealand: Obese Applicants Face Visa Rejection
In New Zealand, obesity can be a barrier to visa applications. A woman from South Africa was once denied a visa by New Zealand's immigration authorities due to her weight. The officer cited her high BMI and overweight status as posing a significant health risk, which would place considerable strain on New Zealand's government-funded healthcare system. But she eventually received permission to settle after successfully losing weight.
India: Yoga for All to Combat Obesity
Prime Minister Modi has personally promoted the yoga movement, using the nationwide yoga craze to actively address the increasingly serious problem of obesity. Modi can be described as the "Chief Marketing Officer" of yoga. In 2024, it was his active advocacy that led the United Nations to designate June 21st as the International Day of Yoga.
From "gold temptation" to "waistline legislation," in this global protracted battle concerning human health, China has also demonstrated localized solutions. Shandong Province has innovatively launched the "One Evaluation (health assessment), Two Controls (tobacco control and alcohol control), Three Reductions (salt reduction, oil reduction, and sugar reduction), Four Healthy Goals (healthy mind, healthy weight, healthy mouth, and healthy bones)" public health lifestyle campaign, which includes a variety of activities for popularizing and intervening in healthy weight management knowledge. The province has cumulatively conducted over 9,000 such activities, with a total participation of 995,000 people and a coverage of 7.912 million people.
Weight loss is a spoonful of salt in a meal, a record of 10,000-steps on a smartphone, and the silent battle between countless individuals and fat. Weight loss is also the medical insurance catalog in policy documents, the walking greenways in urban planning, and the systematic reshaping of a healthy ecosystem by a civilized society. Weight loss, which may seem like a "minor issue" in personal life, is in fact a "major issue" related to global public health security. Every scientific weight - loss attempt is a responsible act for personal health. It also contributes to reducing social medical burdens and improving overall population health quality. There is no single cure for obesity; each effective intervention is a key piece in building public health for all.
