Treatment of such diseases is highly expensive thus, increasing the demand for weight management programs. According to World Health Organization (WHO) estimation, in 2016, 13% of the world’s adult population was obese, particularly 15% of women and 11% of men population globally. From 1975 to 2016, the prevalence rate of obesity almost tripled. This in turn, is expected to create immense potential for growth of the weight management market.
