PROSPECTS

Weight issues a concern for Uruguayan population

According to a study from Panmerican Health Organization (OPS) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) 62% of Uruguayan adults are overweight, which surpasses the region’s mean average which is 58% for Latin America. The obesity rate is also higher in Uruguay than the average for the region.

Government introduces new law to tackle childhood obesity

The increasing rates of obesity and overweight in Uruguay was the main driver behind the government’s Healthy Eating Law (Law 19140). This law is aimed mainly at children and adolescents with obesity problems in the country.

Government programmes and rising health awareness set to drive growth

It is expected that the national government, through the Ministry of Public Health, will continue strengthening the existing programmes while implementing new ones in order to help citizens live healthy and more active lives. Through this it is hoped that the rates of obesity and overweight will reduce amongst the Uruguayan population.
