Obesity, the condition of weighing 20 per cent or more above desirable body weight has been called one of the most serious nutritional problems globally. Despite the seemingly ubiquitous reports about benefits associated with regular exercise, there is evidence of non–responders to exercise due to genetic influence, food habits, overeating, unhealthy diets, wrong food choices, laziness, sedentary life, and other illnesses. Obesity is one of the preventable causes of death worldwide (mortality). Obesity increases the risk of many physical and mental conditions e.g. diabetes mellitus type 2, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels (morbidity). Managing your weight is a big part of your health. Weight loss can be often being achieved through a healthy diet and exercise. Nutrition and Health Education is a problem of individuals in the developing world. This individual should examine and assessed their body mass Index (BMI) to identify their health problems. Health threats such as infectious diseases, malnutrition, cancer, diabetes, COVID-19, high blood pressure among others affect all of us naturally throughout the world resulting in morbidity and mortality. It is recommended that individuals’ general knowledge of nutritional information and physical education information should be increased through health programmes like physical exercise, sports and fitness, nutrition education, health and safety, healthy lifestyle and should be trained on how to calculate the body mass index (BMI) for weight control. Fruits and vegetables should be included in the daily diet of an individual e.g. oranges, pineapple, pawpaw, mango, water melon, cucumber, lettuce, cabbage, carrot to boost the immune system of individuals against diseases.
