- 1. Obesity - a growing issue ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X20050039278Geography: CanadaDescription:
By 2002/03, about a quarter of people who were 20 to 56 years old and overweight in 1994/95 had become obese. Among overweight men, the risk of obesity was high for those who were younger, smokers, or had an activity restriction. For overweight women, physical activity was protective against becoming obese.
Release date: 2006-08-22 - 2. Trends in adult obesity ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X20050039279Geography: CanadaDescription:
From 1978/79 to 1986-92, the prevalence of obesity among adults was virtually unchanged, but by 2004, the proportion who were obese had increased, particularly among men.
The increase in obesity was particularly sharp among men who were former smokers.
In 1986-92, people in lower-middle, upper-middle and high income households were less likely than those in the lowest income households to be obese; by 2004, the difference had disappeared among men, and among women, persisted only for those in the highest income group.
